Huey Games has announced that their upcoming multiplayer mayhem racer, Wreckout, described as the ultimate arcade multiplayer game for the eSports generation, just won the Jägermeister Track and Build competition, which brings together the worlds of video games and leading-edge music. Wreckout is currently slated for a 2020 release on Xbox One and also planned for the Xbox Series X once it releases.
This year was the second year of the Track and Build initiative, which searches for an indie game where the winner will have their soundtrack created by award-winning cinematic bass duo Koven; who previously lent their music to Fortnite and Rocket League.
Jägermeister’s Music Manager Tom Carson said:
“The standard of entries for Track and Build was exceptional this year, as evidenced by a game of Wreckout’s quality winning the competition, […] The gameplay looks fantastic and it really lends itself to a thumping soundtrack, which we’re now looking forward to helping provide to the team at Huey Games.”
Huey Games’ Director Rob Hewson added:
“We are thrilled that Wreckout has won Track & Build 2020 and can’t wait to hook up the new soundtrack in-game. It’s a real honor to have Koven overseeing it, and we can’t wait to deliver an electrifying gameplay experience to match the incredible music. The next phase in the Track and Build initiative is to find an upcoming music artist to lend their tracks to Wreckout, with Koven overseeing the project.”.
Koven said:
“Wreckout looks awesome and we’re looking forward to working on some great tracks to make it shine even more,”
