Inspired by the classic Sprint arcade series, NeoSprint introduces customizable tracks, co-op racing, and multiple game modes
New York, NY (June 27, 2024) - Let your engine roar — it's time to head to the starting line. Today, Atari — one of the world's most iconic consumer brands and interactive entertainment producers — is pleased to announce a shift into high gear as it releases NeoSprint onto Windows PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 & 5, and Xbox One and Series X|S.
Based on the classic Sprint arcade series, NeoSprint puts the pedal to the metal, inviting players to race across colorful, minimalist 3D isometric landscapes. Customize your car of choice and compete in 8-player local multiplayer races. Build, share, and download tracks from the community and compete for the best time.
Atari's single-screen Sprint series brought multiplayer racing to arcades in the 1970s, complete with steering wheels, gas and brake pedals, and gear shifts. The gem of the series was Sprint 8, which allowed 8 friends to compete in frenzied single-screen action. With NeoSprint, the fun of single-screen co-op racing is reimagined with modern racing sim elements while embracing the series' lineage.
Key Features of NeoSprint Include:

Track Builder: Create and share your dream tracks and circuits with the NeoSprint player community. Build tracks with jumps and turns up to three levels high across three different biomes. Share your best designs and get ready to compete for the fastest time.
