BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Europe Ltd (BNAE) is proud to announce the release of Cruis’n Blast™, the first arcade exclusive from Raw Thrills™.
The legendary Cruis’n™ series of driving games debuted in the ‘90’s with the arcade smash and Nintendo 64™ launch title Cruis’n USA™. Cruis’n USA™ thrilled the world with amazing 3D realism and casual arcade fun, setting new records for income and operator ROI. Followed by Cruis’n World™, and Cruis’n Exotica™, the Cruis’n series sold over 70,000 arcade driving machines, grossing over $8 Billion worldwide.
“Cruis’n Blast™ is hotly anticipated by distributors and players alike in all of the regions we supply,” says James Anderson, Commercial & Sales Director BANDAI NAMCO Amusement Europe Limited. “We are thrilled to distribute the latest installment of this fantastic series of games. Cruis’n Blast™ will be previewed on our stand at the upcoming IAAPA show.”
“With the resurging millennial arcade scene and unprecedented player demand, the time was right for a new Cruis’n game.” Eugene Jarvis, Raw Thrills President and creator of the Cruis’n series, states.
Cruis’n Blast, developed by the crack Raw Thrills studio team, takes Cruis’n into the new millennium as players zoom 200 mph through the bustle of London, blast through the exotic wonders of Madagascar, celebrate Carnival in Rio, amaze to the hi tech splendor of Singapore, and drive an earth-shaking thriller through Death Valley. Every track is packed with speed thrills, exploding scenery, and extreme special FX. In tune with the times, players race in an immersive cockpit simulator loaded with HD supercomputer graphics and immersive effects. The Thrill-D Blaster™ sound system recreates the sound of an actual race, backed by a pumping soundtrack that is a staple of the Cruis’n experience.
