Wreckfest Season 2 Update and New Content Arrives

September 15, 2020 By Dan Thornton Leave a Comment

Bugbear Entertainment have followed up their teaser trailer with a Wreckfest Season 2 update and new content available now for the PC, alongside a new tournament with a free Rocket RX as one of the rewards.

To earn the free Rocket RX or a variety of new paint and customisation bundles you’ll need to compete in the Getaway Heat tournment. This needs you to race through checkpoints in one of the cars from the first Season 2 DLC pack – and involves a new city circuit (Hillstreet Circuit) which is available free to all players, including for multiplayer racing.

Wreckfest Season 2 will last until March 2021, and there’s a Season Pass available, which will give you access to four included DLC packs. Plus there will be new free tracks for all players released alongside each new piece of DLC.

The first DLC is the Getaway Car Pack, which includes three cars and can be bought separately for £3.29. It’s available now and the cars are the Bullet (a classic American muscle car), the agile Razor, and the Cardinal (a former law enforcement vehicle). And any resemblance to the General Lee, a Nissan, or a Ford Crown Vic are obviously entirely coincidental.

On top of all that, a new Wreckfest update is available to download for the PC version, which includes performance engines for the Motorhome, better handling for the Big Rig, and changes to the collission physics.
