Carmageddon: Rogue Shift Game
Nov 25, 2025
TDR 2000 is the next title in the multiple award winning Carmageddon™ series.
Another installment in the brutal and controversial racing game series which dates back to 1997.
The fourth vehicular combat game in the Carmageddon series.
Carmageddon is back with Carmageddon: Rogue Shift, but this time around, there's a new studio behind the wheel and the carnage is driving into the roguelite space. This is everything we know about the legendary vehicular video game series' return so far.
THQ Nordic bought itself a slice of violent vehicular mayhem.
The final release date for Carmageddon: Reincarnation, the crowd-funded and subsequently Early Access-ed fourth entry in the long-running vehicular homicide series, has been pushed back a month. Reincarnation was originally intended to make it the doors on April 23, but developer and original franchise creator Stainless Games has moved the date back to May 21.
Franchise reboot Carmageddon: Reincarnation earned $625,000 on Kickstarter back in 2012, and made its Steam Early Access debut early last year. Now it's almost ready to release in full. Original series creator Stainless Games has announced that the game's final, official release date will be April 23. They've also provided a nice rundown of everything fans will get in the final version.
Pseudo Interactive was pronounced shutdown last week, the developer had worked on Full Auto. What was kept quiet however was their Carmageddon project which would have brought the cult classic to the next-gen console scene. SCi's corporate restructing, which lead to14 project kill offs and a 25% workforce reduction was the cause of Pseudo's downfall.
The UK's BBFC has slapped a 15 certificate on the front of THQ and Volition Inc's Red Faction: Armageddon, meaning it's all clear for the shops. Yes the end of the world (on Mars) can be enjoyed by bloody thirsty, property damaging and car stealing 15 year-olds. It's got "strong violence and language".
A countdown as started at a site registered to Square-Enix called www.carmageddon.com. The countdown is ticking down towards June 1, which will presumably unveil the next generation of Carmageddon.
Publisher Square Enix don't hold the rights to Carmageddon or its website as they, or rather Eidos, used to. Stainless was the creator of the Carmageddon series. It will apparently be announced at E3 but won't be shown on the floor. The rights have returned to Stainless, but don't seem to be behind the development.
Stainless Games has reacquired the Carmageddon brand and is currently developing a digital download version called Carmageddon: Reincarnation. The developer was originally behind PC versions of Carmageddon and Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse.
A rather hefty sum was forked over by Carmageddon creator Stainless Games to get the IP back in their hands, but only because Square Enix bought Eidos. They had tried to get Eidos to sell them the IP back, or at least get licensed work for it, but it never happened. Square selling it was a "surprising decision".
Veteran developer Stainless Games has announced that Carmageddon Reincarnation, a project the studio had been working on since last June, is now fundraising on Kickstarter. The company is looking for $400,00 to get the game released by February 2013.
Stainless Games has thanked gamers for backing their Kickstarter Project, Carmageddon: Reincarnation, a reboot of the original classic Deathrace 2000-style car combat game.
