Wreckfest 2 | Early Access Announcement Trailer
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- Wreckfest 2, the next evolution of full-contact racing, crashes its way into Early Access on PC on March 20, 2025. Developer Bugbear has overhauled its physics engine to deliver the most intense crashes, deeper component damage, and absolute vehicular mayhem.
Forget shiny supercars - in Wreckfest 2, the rides are old, rusty, dented, and patched together. As Early Access progresses, you'll be able to build the banger of your dreams and transform your battered ride into a wrecking machine! New cars and other vehicles will be added as the game evolves.
From day one, Wreckfest 2 will be shaped by your feedback. We're eager to create the greatest demolition derby-style game of all time. Ready to take the wheel?

#Wreckfest
"For immature audiences only" Is the best way to describe any wreckfest experience this is gonna be so fun
Wreckfest is one of the few online games where I not only tolerate kids, I actually want them to be part of it.
@@derjoghurtmitderecke fr I don't get how people don't enjoy getting crashed into I personally love it
Bus Gang!
So its appealing to NFS community
ur an easy corner bomb bud
I never liked how modern racing games have little to no damage model. So thank you for keeping it alive.
Yeah. I was honestly worried that wreckfest 2 wasn't gonna have damage models but thank God.
@@CivilLion01wreckfests identity is based on that, if they didn’t im sure no one would buy this game
@Anthony-Soprano wait is it really?
@@CivilLion01 hard to tell your being sarcastic in a comment section… I now see it lol
I think you may already know it, but this is because car manufacturers don't want their cars demolished in games. They usually allow to limit it by little bends on the chassis and cracked windows. But just in case someone wonders why, here it is. Because of the manufacturers.
Have a button to flip people off.
Please have a button to flip people off.
Nah that's to GTA5.
Its early access so you may just get that
@jwalster9412 Nah I think I see atleast one driver get flipped off every race I see on a professional level. We need the feature
@@xXDJLEE02Xx I dont watch motor sports, so this is a suprise to me
@jwalster9412 It's a time honored tradition, and the one of the best or sometimes only way for racers to tell eachother "What the fuck was that for??!" or anything similar, or when they're getting even.
we are so back
we never left
☝️
Who is we
@@brianng9765 *We are so wreck
Out on my birthday bro!
Look at the way the suspension works & how detailed the undercarriage is! Can't wait for this game
Yes I saw that too. Hopefully more in depth than the first game.
wow, can't believe they're actually making a wreckfest 2. Can't wait to see future development!
lol some guys waiting for years and you dont know it :D
Do you live under a car wreck or something mate?
Future development? Its in 3 months ready.
What A Bot of a comment 😂 vote kick the Bot
YVMG is voting to kick Stuckcups
They should have called it Second Wreckfest
The first one is still alive and kicking, but will not be missing this one
Next Car Game 2 is looking good. 👍
This truly is the Next Car Game
I want the globe of death. Would be epic in this game
only true legends would understand
More like the real Flatout 4, the first game being the third ofcourse.
We need throw-a-santa here.
I hope this game gets VR support eventually. Would be a blast!
Yes!!!!
It would be a literal blast 😵💫
Pleeeeeeaaaase!
Yeah games where you stay in one seated place are perfect, I’d like this too please and thank you very much
I have never clicked faster on any video before
SAme :D
I really hope this has a director mode. That'd be so dope to see all this chaos and destruction from a different perspective.
I hope they make it so you can rewind this time... Fuggin' Codemasters did this in like 2007.
There’s a free cam during replays on the first one already
@gaminggoose2329 I mean more to make cinematic videos like in this trailer not just a free cam
@@SlurpyPie That would be sick, it'd be like the old Driver games, where you could manually place cameras and basically edit whole movies!
This 62 year old is hoping for weather effects and day/night races that you can (eventually) toggle on and off. My dream would be a mode where you have a forward firing missile and a rear dropping landmine per race/lap but I highly highly doubt that would happen but hey, I can dream.
Edit: Oh and things you can hit that go BOOM!
Wreckfest saving my gaming year once again!
Can't wait!!!! Midwest and PoopSocks do it up!
POOPSOCK REPRESENT
POOPSOCK YEA!!!!
heh, I remember that, we would block the track with buses.....
Midwest has admins that ruin all the fun.i hope this this new slogan "for immature audiences only" will have its meaning.This game is chaos and fun,not politically correct and chat corrected with ban.
You must be one of the people we have banned. In any chatroom you would be smart about what you say, Poop Sock is no different 👍@alfredprill
0:14 I'm going for first says John Cleland!
Can't wait for this to come to the PS5
Wreckfest 2 is crashing into Early Access on PC first, but don’t worry, console players - your turn is coming with version 1.0 after Early Access! Stay tuned for more details!
@@thqnordic Patiently waiting, will definitely be a day one purchase for me. You guys are awesome!
@@thqnordic That's awesome news!
@@thqnordicWill we have split screen?
@@thqnordicphysical release and crossplay would be awesome!
Looks awesome! I echo others that wish for official VR support. Please make it happen! Wreck fest is such a blast, it feels like VR was the only missing thing!
modern games cant have vr anymore. look at ea wrc and assetto corsa evo. modern engines are too focused on pretty graphics instead of optimization, using modern inefficient rendering techniques and requiring dlss even on powerful systems. and that is before adding vr. its a sad state of affairs.
but i hope im wrong. id love for this game to have good wheel and vr support. (or gamepad and splitscreen on pc would be great too).
@@socks2441 I didnt try EA WRC in VR but I did with Assetto Evo and it worked good for me.
@@JChris2403 have you tried other sims in vr? they dont need a 5090 for excellent visuals and performance. i assume you have a 4080 or higher if you think acevo is remotely playable in vr in its current state. you are literally the only person i have heard say it 'works good' in vr. nobody else thinks that.
@ i assume you said that in jest :)
@ yeah im having a 4090. I did play Project Cars 2 in VR for a long time. Also Automobilista 2. I wanted to give it another try cause Ive heard they did a great job with the new AI.
If I play a Sim or Simcade racer I need to play it in VR. Couldnt stick to Forza Motorsport cause of the lack of it 😅
I'm glad they are doing another one! Loved the first as a old Destruction Derby fan.
Very exciting... hopefully will get vr and telemetry for motion system in this episode
It looks exactly the same as the current Wreckfest....
It really doesn't
Wreckfest is the only racing game I actually watched my replays and laughed. Amazing soundtrack, took me back to the good old days. So excited to see another installment.
Best game ever, I only hope that they have VR support this time! 🙏
FlatOut was really over 20 years ago...
That's it! I couldn't remember the name of that game but immediately thought that this trailer looked eerily similar to a game I loved in the past. Sigh, great times.
damn.
Yep, and the 2nd game is turning 20 years old next year as well...
I will never forget setting up my Logitech wheel, pedals and shifter, putting on my PSVR1 headset (it isn't VR but basically causes the screen to take up all of your field of vision) and playing Wreckfest for the first time. It was demolition derby on riding lawnmowers and I cackle laughed for a good 10 minutes straight. Then driving a tut tut against school buses, then a figure 8 rampage race and on and on. I was already a huge fan of Bugbear from the FlatOut series. Can't wait for part 2!
the end of this trailer was comedy gold.
this needs either splitscreen or vr. id be happy with either.
It has split screen that was already confirmed
@@TylerMillayMclarenF1972 even on pc? if so, awesome. its a bit of a hassle sometimes having to use nucleus co op. native split screen is always preferable. ok. i know i said id be happy with either. but now i want vr support as well... 😅
i hope theres vr this time since its the most asked thing for the 1st game
Hope they make the physics even more realistic
from trailer, still doesnt look like softbody physics :(, but still dope
I don't, over the top physics is what made FlatOut fun.
@@CortyCze jakoby chovani vozidla klidne ať nechají, ale demolici by mohli teda polepšit, popravdě mi to přijde úplně stejné jak wreckfest 1 😄
@@RozvozceTofu Mě na Wreckfestu vždy chyběl ten nefiltrovaný chaos FlatOutu. FlatOut odměňoval bourání a zhovadilosti, Wreckfest za ně postihuje.
If the attitude of the trailer is the same way they actually made and present the game, this could be an all timer for car games.
I CANT WAITTTTTTTTTT❤❤❤
Hoping for VR this game in vr would be epic
When the head gets squished from a crash, how would vr work?
@magicianmagic8727 I don't get what you mean. You don't see your own head just the damage and garage in front of you. You know, just like all other racing games in vr
@@charleswatson3951 Head is often squished because roof is too low, it is not possible to do this for VR
Your axel is broken, your radiator is blown! You've lost your car...the race is all over!!
Nice to see that the drivers have some personality
Tätä on odotettu! Tää on ehkä mun top#1 autopeleistä mitä olen pelannut 🙏🍀
Me too!
I hope this has Flatout 2 vibes, so far it looks like it
yeah it need to more like flatout, the first one was just meh. The dirt tracks are just boring.
Finally some less biased views. The culture of making games that are just a blast to play has been fading since the PS4 gen. Where are the destruction derby 2 / raw's, the flatout 2's, the motorstorms. Games that are made to overwhelm your senses with the variety of tracks, game modes, the overall presentation and FUN. Wreckfest, while solid, checked none of those for me.
They also made the suspension animation! ))
Please add VR support! Absolutely loved Wreckfest before I had VR. Can't go back now but would be sick to have Wreckfest in VR. I know where I'd be all the time
Please go to deathmatches so I can see how bad vr will be after I hit you too much 💀🤣
imagine the instant VR motion sickness when your car spins through the air! 🤣
bring the destruction and amount of details from your early next car game builds of 2014 and this will be a banger
Let's race!
Been playing Wreckfest since 2015. It's really exciting Wreckfest 2 is happening so quickly
That’s how you do a trailer, goddamn
Vroom vroom !!! I’m about to climb those timetables
We are so freakin' back!
Any chance of VR support this time? I love Wreckfest so much but I don't play it much due to the lack of VR. Hard to go back to a screen after being in VR a lot.
same here, if im using a wheel, im in vr. so i never played wreckfest, it looked like a great game, but with no vr, i just couldnt do it.
Its a custom engine. maybe not. perhaps as a mod, but then again.... custom engine, so maybe not. XD
0:30-0:33 reminds me so much of the "old" Flatout Ultimate Carnage Trailer, where everyone crashes into one car
me praying they bring back the flatout stunts
that would be Trail Out. i doubt wreckfest 2 bringing driver stunts
@RacerDrag trailout is so mid tho
@ its okay,at least theres a demand in the market
Wreck-cellent!
Lol I love this pun
AMAZING!!!!!! Can’t wait! Wreckfest Forever!!! :)
I really hope steering wheels will work properly in this installment
I'm hyped but I'm curious about what will make this fundamentally different to Wreckfest 1?
I'm excited for this, but I wonder the same thing. I've been playing 1 a lot lately, and the destruction in this trailer doesn't really look much different/improved. Maybe there are more "nodes" for the deformation to work with, which would result in higher accuracy to the damage model, but it's hard to tell.
@yienmaster04 that's exactly what I was thinking. I could hardly tell this was more than a graphical upgrade.
I wonder too why people are so happy? This looks like Wreckfest 1 for me.
Even the place looks not really different from 1.
I only wanted some hands in the cockpit view^^
Not SOON anymore. I'm ready.
Yeah maaate
@Tyrone_WF Do you get it early as you are in the future?
@adsrobin18 lol ill be sending my pc to fin anyway
@@Tyrone_WF oh yeah!
I honestly hope they have a soundtrack playlist that is similar to Flatout 2 or UC.
Previously we got a real FlatOut 3 and now we will get a perfect FlatOut 4. As for me it's an absolute W
The perfect modern way of flatout 2❤
Please allow VR. Please allow VR. Please allow VR. It's like the one thing that kept the original from being a 10/10 for me
I’m hoping for proper triple screen support too
@Aulivyay I'm right there with you. Just recently got my 3rd monitor and the stand. I'm excited to finally unlock that imnersion
Would love PSVR2 support!
We need vr true!!!
0:29 My guy chose to drive straight into that container.
Hell yeeee, total race chaos is back!!
It never ends, try out wreckfest and flatout1 / 2 / ultimate carnage
I hope it'll be a bit easier and more convenient to join online lobbies. It's awesome that MP in Wreckfest is still alive, but joining a lobby is quite tedious. Can't wait for Wreckfest 2!
I would love to play this in VR ❤
Ready for more mayhem!
Really good news. Cant wait!
PLEASE ADD THE NITRO!!! IT WILL BOMBASTIC!!!
hell yeah
I sure hope the engine sounds are better, good lord
Looks really good, I hope for even more environmental destruction... Maybe adding Nitro/boost as an upgrade. And would be cool if the drivers fly through the windshield again^^
Очень рад, что хоть кто то еще делает нормальные гонки! Обязательно куплю и всем своим друзьям уже скинул трейлер! Flat out тема)))
О дааааа, флет аут жив)
I hope this time you make more fun, lore, music, and good career, like in Flatout 2)
And please make racing tracks in the countryside!!
I can’t wait for the giant enemy spider boss fight
Please do a VR Mode!!!
Being catapulted out of a car in VR would be sweet
"Wreckfest" is the game I now play the most. Can't wait for W2!
Will there be a VR mode?
Wow, I can't wait!
Let's wreck!!!
Test Drive: Eve of Destruction
Add in some hilariously wild stuff like the old flatout. Give us corny goofy voice lines to yell, let us flip people off, and do all sorts of things you would do for an immature audience haha!
More tracks, more customization, more cars, full crossplay, online tournaments and one click download user made tracks on all platforms. DRIVER VOICE QUIPS LIKE ROAD RASH JAILBREAK ON PS1 ! Maybe even copy Trackmania with COTD???
You can also look at Test Drive Eve of Destruction in race modes, like chain racing, boat trailer racing, maybe even an open world hub or perhaps you could walk around in pre game lobbies, admiring the cars?
If you do this, you guys will never have to release a game again... $$$
I love test drive eve of destruction
Eve of destruction is so damn underrated, I would love a little hub world to drive around in
@@GervaissUnscriptedSportsthat is one of my favorite games of all time.
@@4dscdriver same
And Battlepasses!
Hahahaha, you've been having waaaay too much fun testing the new title :)
Will we finally get a Flatout game with Wreckfest 2 destruction?
What are you talking about? Finally? Wreckfest 1 was the more than perfect predecessor of flatout 1
My top three most fun racing games of all time are Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2, RalliSport Challenge 2 and Wreckfest. I often come back and play public servers and daily challenges which keep this game alive. But I do often wish for new tracks, cars and mostly a new career challenge cause it´s so much fun. I am really really exited for Wreckfest 2!
The more car destruction the better. We want beamNG level detail.
Finally give us another game with the soul of Flatout 2 and the destruction model from Wreckfest!
For icing on the cake add geomod similar to red faction guerilla
Wreckfest 1 is more like flatout 1 and I hope that wreckfest 2 doesn't get closer to flatout 2
Wreckfest was the best Game ever!
0:13 is probably the car you start with on the game
System requirements?
RTX6900
If you can run WF now with no probs, you can run WF2.(PC)
@@MajorImpact-l8r I believe in this too
rtx5090
Might be the same with the first wreckfest or slightly higher
Been here since Next Car Game!
VR support please. I feel it's leaving money on the table if you don't, these days.
can't wait
VR??? Pleeeeeeease!!🥹
Now that was not expected... love it
include vr and proximity chat
0:13 we got flat tires and the driver is ducked a little
Wreckfest has such a good handling model, it's very adjustable & it rewards use of the clutch & weight transfer.
I really hope we don't get it dumbed down in the sequel.
The only thing I want to know: Does the destruction influence the driving physics of the car?
Good question. I wonder if they could pull off a mode where you could fire Missiles & shit. It be like realistic Car Combat even more that Interstate 76 was.
vr SUPPORT?
VR?
I really hope it's just more of the same but with refinements on top. No gimmicky nonsense.
Cars riding on the rims and drivers animated is exactly what I hoping to see.
Just add nitro and some shiny cars, like in flatout2 🗿
Memories to Flatout 2 🤩
Ofcourse.... early access on PC only... way to gatekeep.
I have a feeling you're very young
@not_kjb i have a feeling that it's none of your business
@@not_kjb imagine judging someone's age from a comment. What a weak call for attention.
YES, heck yeah! Had so much fun in the first game running class C with folkrace/jokkis rules!
Hopefully the collision physics will be better. I love WF1 but rollover physics behavior felt strange, with cars rotating in odd ways to make them land on their wheels every single time.
The introduction of AI rubberbanding also made bots act like a single herd rather than individual drivers. Hopefully more spread out AI drivers will come back in WF2 like how it was in WF1 alpha.
One last thing, career mode should support post-launch content, so a way to increase its replayability with semi-randomly generated events (still within each event's rules and moods) would be ideal.
I absolutely loved Wreckfest. I didn't even realise a second was coming out...which means I need a new console.
WF1 has a beautiful new gen upgrade too. It’s totally worth it to play again :)
Wish it had VR
hopefully we get more smaller cars like the Uno, XR2, 205 and Golf!
