PATCH 2 - Mid-season Madness

We’ve been working hard to add some exciting new features, gameplay improvements and juicy content for you to get your hands on. Check it out!
CROSS-PLATFORM PARTIES
-
One of the most requested community features is now in the game – Cross-platform parties!
-
You and your friends can now party-up and play together across Xbox and Steam, regardless of platform. In addition to this you can now add ‘TGR Friends’ using a friend code from any platform.
-
Players can now see other players vehicles in the lobby. Time to show off those sweet rides.


LEADERBOARDS
-
Solo mode has a new name, Time Trial!
-
We have added both singleplayer and multiplayer leaderboards that record your fastest time for each level. They can be accessed from the Time Trial tab in-game.
-
Multiplayer leaderboards show times that have been recorded in online games.
-
Single player leaderboards are recorded by players offline.
-
We’ve also added a filter option; allowing you to switch between global leaderboards and those of your friends. Lets get racing!
6 NEW LEVELS
We’ve added six new levels for you to explore and enjoy:
-
Endurance
-
Three Peaks
-
Rough Hill
-
Hurricane Lane
-
Par 5
-
Avalanche
POWER CORES
NEW CORE: BIG SHOT
Increase your ball hitting power and send that ball FLYING!
NEW CORE: ICE LOCK
Freeze your ball in its current position; use this to prevent your ball rolling past the hole or over the edge!
BUFFS
HOT HEAD
Hot head has had some buffing to give it that extra ‘oomphf’
QUICK FLIP
This now awards shield and boost for side flips. Side flips have now been fixed at high speeds too.
CURVE BALL
Curve can be hard enough, so we’ve reduced the strength of the spin on your ball.
