During The Game Awards 2024, Milestone, one of the leading and longest-established racing game developers in the world, unveiled a teaser trailer announcing the return of Screamer – the 1995 title that pushed the boundaries of racing games, set a new benchmark in the genre, and brought the excitement of virtual races from arcades into players’ homes.
Embracing the trailblazing spirit of the original, Milestone has re-envisioned its most iconic IP, combining over 30 years of expertise in racing games to craft a brand-new racing experience with fighting mechanics destined to leave a lasting impact on the genre, just as the original did in the ’90s.
This brand-new Screamer seamlessly blends high-octane arcade action with revolutionary gameplay dynamics and a deep storyline enriched by interwoven character arcs. Drawing inspiration from anime and manga from the ’80s and ’90s, the narrative and visual framework will be the beating heart and soul of the experience. The game features contributions from industry-leading partners, including animated cutscenes created in collaboration with Polygon Pictures—one of the oldest and most renowned Japanese animation studios—and the acclaimed American actor Troy Baker, one of gaming’s most recognisable voices.
