Mad Skills Motocross 3 will be released by Swedish developer Turborilla AB on 25 May, launching the third side-scrolling dirt bike game in the franchise with a must-see animated trailer.

The highly-addicting racing sequel is next up in a franchise that has seen more than 55-million mobile downloads and has become a part of the culture of global action sports, to be available again on iOS and Android platforms.

This new release carries on the franchise’s tradition of featuring the best racing physics on the market, but improves the player experience with significantly upgraded 3D graphics, regularly scheduled online championship events, realistic bikes with upgradeable parts and infinitely more rider and motorcycle customisation options.

“We’ve been working on this game for a long time, consulting with gamers and real motocross racers along the way, and we’re really proud of the game we’re about to release,” said Turborilla CEO Mattias Wiking.

“We think it’s an upgrade on our previous games in every way, but at the same time, we see the release as a starting point in a long journey. We’ll continue listening to player feedback and updating Mad Skills Motocross 3 with more content for years to come.”

Mad Skills Motocross 3, which is being launched with support from Arctic Game Lab, will be released with hundreds of expertly-designed tracks, engaging player challenges and soon after launch, clan-style teams that will take social gameplay in the franchise to another level. Customisation options will include both real-life and fantasy brands, satisfying motocross enthusiasts and casual players alike.
