Get ready to bundle up in your winter parka and grab a thermos of hot cocoa because the popular downhill mountain biking game, “Lonely Mountains: Downhill,” is getting a snowy sequel. Megagon Industries premiered a gameplay trailer with commentary at Gamescom for their new blocky skiing game, “Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders.” The upcoming downhill racing game is set to launch on Steam by the end of the year, with the potential for a console release if it garners enough success like its predecessor. The “Lonely Mountains” series focuses on the serene experience of navigating beautiful polygonal landscapes, with no distracting music, and instead offers challenges and rewards like new bikes and trails to explore. “Snow Riders” will maintain this simple gaming formula but will introduce a solo and live multiplayer mode for up to eight players, including cooperative challenges and a special “Zen Mode” for leisurely exploration. Take a break from the competition to appreciate the scenery with your blocky rider friend in this tranquil gaming experience.
