Free TrackMania game released

Find it on Steam and in other places.

Nadeo Studio has released TrackMania Nations Forever to the Internet.

This is the free expansion to the free competitive online TrackMania Nations game from early 2006. Inside are 65 fresh tracks, a new version of the Stadium and an entire solo mode to master.

Better still, it lets you race against those who paid for the TrackMania United game.

And those of you forking out for United (which we thoroughly recommend) will, in turn, be given a free TrackMania United Forever expansion. Confusing.

This has more new tracks, as well as polished graphics and some new design blocks.

Head over to the official TrackMania website for a list of places to download Nations Forever from.

Or you can download it from Steam, where you can also buy TrackMania United and be given United Forever for free.
