Too many tracks employ lava but, on the whole, this bundle has exactly the variety I missed in the often bland base version of Trials Fusion.įolks who skipped the season pass but want more Trials in the vein of Trials HD and Evolution should consider downloading Awesome Level Max. Another is reminiscent of Limbo‘s shadowy, saw-filled world. If they weren’t labeled separately, I’m not certain I’d be able to tell the levels apart. I didn’t find that to be the case at all. One concern going in was that there would be an inconsistency between the player-created courses and the ones RedLynx designed. I haven’t managed to finish either of them yet, and that pleases me.

They’re far more varied and come packaged under the “RedLynx vs. The other twenty-two levels are a mix of developer and player-made creations. It’s only short eight levels, one of which is an even-shorter FMX course that has players performing tricks as they fall from space. While Ubisoft has spent much of its time talking up “The Awesome Adventure,” the group of levels centered on the unlikely duo, that content makes up the minority of Awesome Level Max. MSRP: $9.99 (DLC) / $39.99 (Full game, Season Pass DLC, and Awesome Level Max) Trials Fusion: Awesome Level Max (PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One) If you’re anything like me, you’ll burst out in laughter. The touchy controls transfer to your new ride, so when you inevitably lose balance, the quadruped will start hoofing it on two legs. Why would Trials Fusion drop its motorbikes for a gun-toting cat on a unicorn?
