FIA European Truck Racing Championship Announced For Nintendo Switch

Bigben today announced that FIA European Truck Racing Championship, the official racing simulation of the ETRC, is coming to Nintendo Switch in July 2019.

FIA European Truck Racing Championship will be developed using the KT Engine, a specialized game engine for creating racing simulations (WRC, TT Isle of Man, V-Rally) by n-Racing.

About the game

FIA European Truck Racing Championship promises a new experience for fans of racing games as well as the large number of trucking simulation fans. Taming an overpowered, 5-tonne monster is entirely different to driving a racing car or a motorcycle. It’s an unprecedented challenge that will require some racing game expertise.

In this game, an FIA ETRC race consists of 12 trucks on a circuit, facing off in four sprints of 45 km each, with special passing techniques, physics and inertia distinct from any other type of vehicle, special penalties, and a reservoir of 200 litres of water that must be managed manually to cool your brakes, avoid overheating, and finish the race.

For several years, the championship has grown quickly and draws a larger and larger crowd every year. The amazingly spectacular races have ignited a growing passion for the discipline, and the media gives it wide visibility. The confrontations between these mechanical behemoths takes place across the greatest circuits in Europe such as Le Mans, the Nürbürgring, Misano or the Hungaroring.
