Aero-Cross announced by Namco-Bandai

Namco-Bandai continues to release “re-imaginings” of their classic games like Pac-Man, Galaga, and so on. This time, Metro Cross has been re-imagined into Aero-Cross, coming to Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network.

The game drops players into a futuristic footrace as runners compete against the clock to finish courses in the fastest time. Runners will navigate courses filled with perilous jumps, roadblocks and other dangers. Players need to make use of different skills and equipment to reach the finish line in time, including slip-streaming behind other runners, air dashes to make long jumps, hoverboards for extra speed and jump pads to avoid hazards on the tracks.

The game has no release date as of yet.
