Desura now offers digital distribution of Chaos Ride, a fast-paced, futuristic racing game for Windows with optional support for Oculus Rift VR headsets. A launch trailer offers a look at the game's Unity Engine graphics and science fiction sensibilities. Here's word on what they call the "fastest racing game ever made":

Chaos Ride is a futuristic arcade racing game, influenced by all the insanely fast arcade racers of the early 00's - Wipeout, Extreme G, Ballistics, Outrun 2 et al. Players pilot their neon hover-cycles through nine different locations at speeds of up to 800mph.

Set entirely inside tubular-shaped tunnels, the game uses a unique method for navigating the tracks. Racers primarily build speed by gaining momentum, which they acquire by angling their vehicles at optimum trajectories as they race. As with any other racing game, it’s all about finding the best racing lines to shave seconds from your lap times – only in Chaos Ride, this happens at jet-engine velocities while things explode around you. Imagine piloting a rocket-powered bobsled, while avoiding and competing against nine other rocket-powered bobsleds, at 800mph, and you have a rough idea of the core gameplay experience.

Based on the series of mobile titles of the same name, the game includes 18 tracks, 90 events, a vehicle customisation system, a 15-hour single player campaign, split-screen multiplayer for up to four players, and full support for the DK2 Oculus Rift.
