ONRUSH, the new arcade racing game made by former Evolution Studios developers, was announced last month by Codemasters.
In an interview with RedBull Games, Associate Game Director Jamie Brayshaw said that ONRUSH will fully exploit the capabilities of Sony's PlayStation 4 Pro and Microsoft's Xbox One X consoles.
We're absolutely going to take full advantage of the extra horsepower of the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. It's safe to say that we're working hard on ensuring the new engine and new tech we've built is enabling us to deliver constant and chaotic action.
Game Director Paul Rustchynsky was then asked about a potential port for the Nintendo Switch console and here's his reply:
We haven't started looking at what it would take to get up and running on Switch, but we are huge fans of Nintendo and the Switch is a fantastic piece of kit.
ONRUSH is due to launch in Summer 2018 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. There's no word yet of a potential PC release, strangely enough.
