During this Summer's gamescom 2014 Xbox Briefing, ScreamRide's reveal stood out, even though it wasn't exactly clear what kind of game we were looking at. Is it a simulation? An action title? Recently, I met up with Executive Producer Jorg Neumann, who shared much more on ScreamRide, including a look at the tools used to construct roller coasters that defy reality and what happens when your friends start riding them.

"Unprecedented levels of destruction?" OK, ScreamRide, now you have my attention. The screaming begins this Spring on Xbox One and Xbox 360.

looking good

Larry Hryb, Xbox Live's Major Nelson, sits down with Executive Producer Jorg Neumann to discuss how Frontier Developments is bringing action, thrills, and yes, screams to the roller coaster genre.
 
It looks really fun. I love the animations. I do wonder how long it takes to build an epic coaster only to turn it into rubble.
 
Game looks like it could be a blast. Have to agree with that ^ Oculus comment though. I'm not sure I could take it though haha.
 
Looks legit to me. I'll give Screamride a try.
It would be cool if they incorporate Kinect and it records and logs how you react when your testing or playing the ride that was built. Also this looks like the perfect game to show the Cloud at work (building destruction).
 
Not even slightly interested in this game. But then again....i wasn't exactly that interested in SO neither and it ended up being my runner up GOTY after Dragon Age.
 
Looks awesome.

Create, Ride and Destroy in the ScreamRide demo tonight


ScreamRide crashes onto Xbox in two weeks, and if the above launch trailer has you curious to see just what happens when you hurl pods full of explosives at buildings or build terrifying coasters, you can actually start creating and destroying because theScreamRide demo launches on Xbox Live starting at midnight tonight.

Available on both Xbox One and Xbox 360, you can try out each of the three career modes in the free demo (the full game features over 50 levels in the campaign plus a robust level creation editor). Want to test your awesome twitch action gameplay skills by steering a coaster car directly through crazy mazes? Then strap yourself in the cockpit as a ScreamRider and ride a coaster through the labyrinth of twists and turns. For a change of pace, you can play as the Engineer and strategically plan how to build the best coasters with the provided tools. Finally, once you’ve mastered riding and creating, tear it all down by playing as the Demolition Expert, where you skillfully fling pods for maximum screams and destruction.
Already available for pre-order in stores, ScreamRide’s digital pre-order and pre-download also go live today. As you prepare for launch beginning March 3rd, use the demo as practice on your way to becoming a five-star-earning ScreamRider, Engineer and Demolition Expert, earning as many screams as you can!
