At the time of writing this review i have got gold medals on pretty much all medium-hard tracks in the new DLC pack, and beaten all but 1 extreme track, accidentally hit select so it restarted when i had like 150 faults near the end of the final track.
The DLC adds 40 new tracks i think this includes the skill games, as there are about 10 new skill games, including games like human javelin, taking your nutty squirrels on a roller coaster ride while collecting as many coins as possible (Mario style), a game where you try to jump as high as possible on 5 different jumps, a tower building game with blocks where you have to stack them up and keep building it, all the while in a jet-pack with a block magnet, and possibly my favorite skill game so far, infinite trials, as the name suggests there is an infinite amount of randomly generated rooms that seem to steadily get harder and harder, there is also an achievement for reaching level 15 in infinite mode, i have only reached 7, which is where it seems to get a little bit more difficult.
The DLC also adds a new bike which is very similar to the phoenix, however the only stat that is different is it has less on the difficulty meter, it feels a bit lighter than the phoenix so will be a good alternative to those who use nothing but the phoenix.
All of the tracks are up to the quality we expect with Red Lynxes official tracks, and as with the last DLC we have a whole new "world" to make tracks in, as well as 100+ new items for the editor. So if you're a track maker, get to it
All of the tracks are unique, and many of them are challenging, seems the DLC only features medium, hard and extreme tracks, as well as the standard tournaments mode featuring the new tracks. From futuristic utopian cities, to underground ancient crypts, and a city flying in the sky (Bio-shock Infinite anyone?), the DLC adds plenty of great new content for Trials Evolution.
The achievements are a standard list of Trials based achievements, zero fault a certain tournament, find the new hidden squirrels in the new tracks, beat a certain track without hitting the breaks (most of which we have previously seen), one for getting platinum medals on all tracks except extreme, platinum medals usually require a perfect run being as fast as possible over every single obstacle, it will definatly be a challenge, i have gotten many platinum medals in the original Trials Evolution tracks, just need to keep trying to improve your speed, watch replays, race against ghosts, and keep learning new techniques to be faster. The new achievements also have a bunch of hidden secrets on the levels to find, overall a pretty challenging set of new achievements with or without a guide.
5/5 stars, for 400msp it's a steal.
