505 Games to Rig’n’Roll Out in 2008

505 Games today announced plans to roll out its
truck-driving simulation, Rig ‘n’ Roll, across Europe this year. Developed by
SoftLab-NSK, Rig ‘n’ Roll will be released exclusively for PC in September 2008.

California, 2024. A young man arrives in the
Sunshine State to pursue his dreams of conquering the Californian cargo
transportation market. There are miles of highways, cities and towns to explore
as he strives to become the greatest trucker on the circuit. You are that
articulate young man.

Rig ’n’ Roll is the latest in the best selling
Hard Truck series. Players experience life on the open road, driving their
trucks across the US and overcoming all the challenges the highways throw at
them. Trucker wannabes can race high-powered rigs along thousands of miles of
real Californian roads, visiting anywhere from San Jose to Los Angeles,
delivering the ultimate truck-driving experience. Rig ’n’ Roll mixes the most
authentic modeling of trucks and their interiors with a brand new physics engine
and advanced 3D graphics to make this a unique experience.

Truckers will outrun their opponents to deliver
cargo on time or take part in truck races to prove their professional driving
skills, giving them the opportunity to improve their rating and authority.
Drivers with a high sport rating will also be able to participate in the
Californian truckers’ championship, with the winner of the final race – the
Monster Cup – becoming the Champion of California.

Rig ’n’ Roll can also test gamers’ management
skills as they establish their own cargo transportation company. Players who
manage to get a high rating will be able to recruit staff and hire other drivers
to work for them as they expand their business and eliminate their competitors
from the market. On top of this, apart from being the most accurate, deep and
innovative truck driving simulation game ever produced, Rig ’n’ Roll immerses
you in an involving story, with your driver making new allies and battling
treacherous foes as he discovers a conspiracy that will test his skills to the
limit.

Rig ’n’ Roll will be released in September 2008
for PC.
