Free Trials Fusion teams and online multiplayer update slated for early 2015

A free update introducing teams and multiplayer in Trials Fusion has been announced and you can play the content in the PC beta from today.

Players can form Teams to compete against rivals and hopefully earn a spot on the Teams leaderboard.

Teams can have up to 50 members, are represented by a name and emblem, and each group hosts its own bulletin board where "teammates can communicate."

Additionally, Teams can race each other in private games through the upcoming online multiplayer feature.

Here are the three online multiplayer modes in the works:

• Online X-Supercross: Up to eight players race on three random tracks, after which a winner is announced based on an accumulative best score.
• Private Game: Up to eight players select which tracks to race and customise race parameters such as gravity of the track, modifying bike speed, or inverting the bike’s controls.
• Private Game with Spectator- Players looking to watch online multiplayer select the tracks and parameters for the race and invite eight other players to ride so they can kick-back and watch the race. These matches can also be broadcast using streaming platforms.

The multiplayer mode will also host a global leaderboard tracking experience players have earned from the Online X-Supercross mode.

Multiplayer will be made available to all Trials Fusion players as a free update in early 2015, glowing for four players per race on Xbox 360 and up to eight players on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One.
