Spinout is a platform racer developed by Icon and published by Ghoslight in which you can play as an elite galaxy Xorber, competing in the equivalent of a futuristic F1 race car, aka Xorb. There are 50 challenging courses to choose from across 9 stunning environments, avoiding deadly obstacles and negotiating hazardous tracks through ancient ruins, space stations and the fiery pits of hell!

It's literally a race against the clock exploiting the game's advanced
spheroid physics to control the Xorb at death defying speeds. Collect power ups along the course to upgrade Xorb's braking and air control system and limit 'real time' damage inflicted to the spheres' metallic skin.

Share track times and compete head to head with friends in the great wi-fi multiplayer mode, where up to 4 players can go head to head in XorbRace mode, armed to the teeth with missiles and rockets, competing against each other for the prestigious title of fastest and deadliest Xorber in the galaxy.

Also, players can win medals in career mode to progress through the 4 race classes, starting as a novice in the 'Explorer' class and stepping up to the gravity defying 'Angel Class'. Customization can be done on so many levels that you'll literally be the character in the game, with over 2 million bodywork profile combinations and performance upgrades. Earn cash to unlock hidden tracks and bonus features, by winning races, finding hidden cash tokens, and gaining more air time than Tony Hawk on a half pipe.
