RedLynx unveils Trials Evolution for XBLA

Multi-bikes side-by-side on one course!

Trials HD has a successor: Trials Evolution for Xbox Live Arcade.

Evolution goes outside, swapping warehouse interiors for fresh air and a pretty day and night cycle.

Crucially, Evolution introduces a track sharing hub called Track Central. That means no more editing Friends Lists to get the latest community-made treasures thank goodness.

Finnish developer RedLynx also promises that "multiplayer comes alive". The video below shows three bikes side-by-side, racing on the same course. Gasp!

Trials HD, a side-scrolling stuntbike action/puzzle game, took Xbox Live Arcade by storm. To date, more than 2 million downloads of the game and its two expansion packs have taken place.

Eurogamer awarded Trials HD a don't-you-dare-miss-it 9/10.
