Before Gear.Club Unlimited shipped last year, Eden Games promised free updates for its racer. We’ll begin to see that starting tomorrow.

Eden Games, along with its publisher Microids, have revealed a free update for Gear.Club Unlimited. The patch will include a new local multiplayer game mode, two free DLC packs, and other features.

It was just a couple of months ago that Gear.Club Unlimited made its way to Switch. Recently, we spoke with developer Eden Games to learn more about the process of bringing the racer to Nintendo’s console.

As for why Gear.Club Unlimited made sense on Switch in the first place, Eden Games explained:

Microids published another making of video for Gear.Club Unlimited this week. In the latest entry, Eden Games talks about the tracks and environments in the game. View the video below.

When Gear.Club Unlimited first made it to Switch, Microids was originally selling it as a GameStop exclusive. Just a few weeks later though, it will become more available at more retailers.

Amazon is one outlet that plans to sell Gear.Club Unlimited very soon, for example. If you’d like to order it, you can do so here. It should be available at the end of the month.

Microids is giving Gear.Club Unlimited fans into the game’s creation with new making of videos. Below, you’ll get some insight into car modeling and the performance shop.

Eden Games and Microids aren’t done with Gear.Club Unlimited. After launching the game yesterday, the game will continue to receive support.

The first true update we can look forward to is in January. Microids has said that players can anticipate the following:

– Addition of a Championship mode to local multiplayer
– Improvement of car selection’s screen (especially in local multiplayer)
– Performance shop: players will be able to have 10 cars in their performance shop instead of 4
– Addition of a new rear-view camera
– Navigation on performance shop improved
