Codemasters has announced a new arcade racing game, called ONRUSH. ONRUSH is described as a celebration of sensational speed, outright fun and over the top spectacle. And while the game looks fun, it was only announced for PS4 and Xbox One. However, Codemasters’ Community Manager revealed that the game will also come to the PC at a later date.
As Codemasters’ Community Manager confirmed on Reddit:
“ONRUSH is a pure arcade racing game, best suited to consoles, and the studio is experienced in making racing games for console. PC will absolutely follow at a later date, but we really wanted to focus on making the best possible experience on console first.”
So yeah, Codemasters will be concentrating on the console release first. Once this version is out, in Summer 2018, it will port it to the PC.
In ONRUSH, racing with style and flare is what counts as you perform incredible takedowns and put everything on the line in order to power up your all-important RUSH bar. RUSH is the ultimate power up, producing an exhilarating and devastating force. This force, when used at the right time, can wreak havoc on your competition.
ONRUSH Game Director, Paul Rustchynsky, said:
“We are extremely excited to finally be able to talk about ONRUSH. The team grew up playing iconic, arcade racing games so it is great to have the opportunity to re-imagine those experiences on today’s consoles and bring something fresh to the market. We believe that it is something that gamers are crying out for.
The most important factor in the game is that it has to be fun. It is not about tire choices, car setups or even racing lines; it’s about edge of your seat action and taking death defying risks in order to reap the biggest rewards.”
Enjoy!

“ONRUSH is a pure arcade racing game, best suited to consoles,”
You can plug a gamepad, and… what will differ the PC experience from the console one?
We’ll get the omg wowowowoowowo 60fps omgomgomgomg wowoowowwo 4k support omgomgomgom wowowowowowowowo 1080p textures omgomgomgomg wowowoowwo vsync etc. But on a more serious note i truly hope this is going to be good and well made for us pc gamers.
I’m always puzzled by this flimsy assertion of theirs.
“Best suited to consoles.”
Bull. The last several iterations of Need for Speed have run at 30 fps on consoles and 60 on PC. Now powerful hardware, options and features always make a game better.
I’m glad, somehow this reminds me of Motorstorm, a game i used to like very much. I’ll keep track of this one.
Same and I was thinking the same thing. Turns out some of the people who worked behind the Motorstorm franchise are now working on this.
Good!
“Best suited to consoles.”
Then as a PC gamer they don’t want my money. NEXT!
i thought torrent was free
That camera work made me puke.

Thanks for the advance warning, Codemasters. To reflect your low prioritisation of PC gamers I shall return the favour by only considering your game for purchase “at a later date”, i.e. when it hits bargain bin prices in a future sale. Quid pro quo.
I’m flat out not considering to purchase their game, if I’m last my thoughts of them will also be last, in the back of my mind that is.
I’d rather reward and spend more time with devs who give me the time of day first.
First come first serve, that’s how it works most of the time in life and it’s how it works with me.
this is all due to pc pirates
hahaha thanks codemaster, that looks absolutely trash, cod-racer game…
Quick, someone tell Codemasters that you can plug a gamepad to a PC.
“ONRUSH is a pure arcade racing game, best suited to consoles, and the studio is experienced in making racing games for console. PC will absolutely follow at a later date, but we really wanted to focus on making the best possible experience on console first.”
Well that tells me all I need to know. I’ll pass if that’s how it’s going to be.PC has access to the majority of peripherals out there and it should have far less issues running their game than current gen systems, but if they want to put as less effort and time on PC, that’s up to them, but it isn’t selling me their game, it’s telling me that I should bother with another dev who serves me up front rather than later.
