Burnout Royale



Burnout Royale is a future racing video game developed by Criterion Games and published Electronic Arts. It is the seventh installment in the Burnout series and commemorates the series' 20th anniversary. It will be released on November 1st, 2021 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Microsoft Windows and Nintendo Switch.

Gameplay
As a commemoration for the Burnout series, Burnout Royale features returning content from every Burnout game released from 2001 to 2021, albeit updated to produce a re-energized racing experience. In this regard, the game is akin to Burnout Legends, the only handheld exclusive game in the series, but on a much more greater scale.

Core gameplay for Royale is most similar to Burnout 3: Takedown, Burnout Revenge and to a lesser extent, Burnout Dominator. Like those games, the iconic World Tour game mode serves as the game's main career mode. Additional gameplay mechanics and features that return from past games include: a sense of speed similar to that of Burnout Paradise, Crashbreaker, Impact Time, Aftertouch Takedowns, Signature Takedowns, and the abilities to traffic check, activate Crashbreaker in any race-oriented mode, and perform Burnout Chains.

Despite the vast amount of returning content, the game features some new content as well. This most prominently includes "Royales": special versions of certain events that feature up to 15 racers at a time (more than twice the normal amount).

Possibly more to be added here.

World Tour
Burnout Royale 's World Tour features a total of 225 events spread out across over more than a dozen game modes that are playable across various locations throughout the world. It is the biggest World Tour event to date in a Burnout game, surpassing Burnout Legends ' 175 events.


 * Race - Race up to 6 racers at a time in a series of laps around a track. Races can be 1, 2 or 3 laps in length.
 * Royale Race - Similar to regular Race, but with 15 racers at a time.
 * Pursuit - Driving as the pursuit variant of a vehicle, takedown a racer or racers before they finish the race. This event functions similarly to the Pursuit event from Burnout Legends.
 * Survival - A new, inverted version of Pursuit where the player must finish the race without being taken down by police a certain amount of times. If they are taken down three times, the player must start the event again.
 * Eliminator - Race where the racer in last place is eliminated after thirty seconds. The final racer remaining is the winner.
 * Royale Eliminator - Similar to regular Eliminator, but with 15 racers at a time. In this event, the racer in last place is eliminated after fifteen seconds as opposed to the standard thirty.
 * Road Rage - Take down as many racers as possible before the time runs out.
 * Crash - Cause as much destruction as possible within a confined Crash Junction. This variation of Crash is very similar to Revenge, although the "Target Car Takedown" sub-objective is absent.

Vehicles
There are a total of 135 vehicles spread across 9 series that can be unlocked in the World Tour. These vehicles return from almost every preceding game in the Burnout series (Burnout 1 is the only game not represented). Each vehicle has an engine sound unique to that vehicle, essentially guaranteeing that the player will never hear the same engine sound twice.

Unless otherwise noted with an "N/A", vehicles have pursuit variants that can be unlocked through completion of Pursuit events.

Soundtrack
Royale features a soundtrack consisting of 50 songs handpicked by LoganC22 from the soundtracks of Takedown, Revenge, Dominator & Paradise that the player can listen to in the menus and while racing. Akin to Dominator, the soundtrack is listed in the "Options" menu in alphabetical order, but during gameplay plays on a shuffled basis.

Trivia

 * While playing Road Rage events, the screen will "crack" after the player crashes and respawns and will continue to do so until they crash out. This is an effect similar in nature to the menu damage from Dominator.
