History VideoGame / Redout

* CharacterLevel: Your Pilot level goes up to 35. The higher your level is, the more events are available in the Career mode.

The game is set in the year 2560 AD, after a mass exodus from Earth, that has been stripped of all its natural resources and made too difficult to inhabit due to global warming. Most humans have inhabited other planets and satellites like the Moon, Mars, Titan and the other moons of Saturn, while the Earth is now largely used as a place for testing and amusement parks. Meanwhile, a popular sport, called the Solar Redout Racing League, or SRRL for short, the fastest - and most dangerous - racing championship ever conceived, has become far and away the most popular form of entertainment in the solar system.

* AmazingTechnicolorBattlefield: The V.E.R.T.E.X. venue, from the upcoming eponymous DLC, is oh so much this.

** "Mecha" livery for Asera ship is themed after [[Anime/{{NeonGenesisEvangelion}} Evangelion Unit 01]].

* WackyRacing: Duh.

The game's core mechanics take a lot from older futuristic racing titles: the racers have to pilot extremely fast crafts around long circuits that twist and turn their way through exotic locales. There are four classes, one faster than the other, and there are 7 teams (originally 6) to choose from, each having upgradable crafts with their own quirks. However, what really sets this game apart is its boost system: you have an energy bar that slowly fills up overtime, which can be used for quick bursts of speed or power-ups like [=EMP=]s, track magnets, and turbo boosts.

* LethalLavaLand: Volcano, the final venue of the original four, is set around Moutohora Island, off the coast of New Zealand's North Island. The pilots not only race around the volcano, but even inside the magmatic chamber.

* AnnouncerChatter: The game uses a female ComputerVoice as announcer. Expect to hear "Hull integrity 50%" a lot if you aren't careful enough.

** Buran -- Types of storms [[GratuitousRussian in Russian]]: Molniya, Shtorm, Uragan, Tayfun.

** Koeniggswerth -- NorseMythology: Centaur, Jormungandr, Yggdrasil, Odin.

** Sulha -- Beings and spirits from Arab folklore: Qareen, Djinni, Efreet, Marid.

* LightningBruiser: The Conqueror and the Buran ships both have amazing top speed, good durability and a strong albeit inefficient energy pool. However, they have poor handling and sluggish acceleration.

* BoringButPractical: Some of the active power-ups, like the Extra Magnetic Grip and the Turbo Boost. They're less flashy and more straightforward than the other active power-ups, but they're effective enough to get you out of a pinch, ''especially'' the Turbo Boost.

* AfterTheEnd: The game takes place after global warming has made Earth uninhabitable.

* UnderTheSea: Most of the Europa tracks race in the massive ocean covered by the thick icy crust of Jupiter's moon. The only exception is Surface Sprint, which is only in part underwater.

* GlassCannon: The Asera ships have a playstyle that is centered upon their energy pool, the best among all the teams. They however have below-average stats everywhere else except for good acceleration and handling.

* ShoutOut: The Sulha ships are designed to look like [[Franchise/StarWars a podracer]], while Conqueror's Class I ship, the Gila, is modeled after the Trans-Am 20000 from ''Anime/{{REDLINE}}''.

* EndlessGame: Surival mode has you racing through the track while avoiding EMP bombs and trying to reach the next checkpoint before the time runs out.

* HealYourself: The Repair Drone. If upgraded, it also gives a slight speed boost when used.
