Eurogamer motorbike-champion RedLynx Trials 2: Second Edition has roared out of the garage with lots of new bits on.
There's 14 additional tracks, for starters, plus team-chat channels and European language support. Dialects can also separate off into channels, so Slovakians can go and bicker in Slovakian if needs be.
Voice-overs by real-life stunt bike maniacs Brandon DiCamillo, Art Webb and Rake Yohn have been added - not that we needed to hear more than our own strangled screams of perfectionist-frustration.
Optimisation has also been looked at, particularly on the lower-end machines and laptops, which can now use a new graphics mode boasting luxuries such as smooth edges and dynamic lighting.
RedLynx has upped the top end of the graphics spectrum, too. And, bizarrely, added triplescreen support for resolutions of 5040 x 1050.
The update, incidentally, will be automatically applied when Trials 2 starts.
RedLynx Trials 2: Second Edition is a wonderfully compulsive side-scrolling stunt-bike game, where the aim is to get from left to right (start to finish) as quickly - and with as few faults - as possible.
