Bigben and Kylotonn Racing Games today published a new trailer to show off two of the five featured racing disciplines in V-Rally 4: Rally and Hillclimb.

Here’s an introduction to both:

Modern and historical cars… Africa, Siberia, the American desert… In V-Rally 4, rally events are serious technical challenges that take place on all surfaces, which only expert racers can hope to win.

Phenomenal power and endurance are what lie in store for you when you decide to take on a mountain in the Hillclimb challenges. In this event you’ll be at the helm of race cars sporting over 1,000 horsepower and are specially designed for this discipline. In Hillclimb events you’ll also be steering through tracks running along cliff faces, which are as dangerous as the scenery is amazing.

And a trailer:

Finally, a recap of other disciplines available in V-Rally 4:

Extreme-Khana: here you must master drifting as you combine speed and precision in trap-packed courses.
V-Rally Cross: confront seven opponents who are hell-bent on making you bite the dust on dirt/asphalt tracks.
Buggy: your all-terrain vehicle promises to be a unique experience on these particularly rugged tracks.

Each discipline offers a unique different driving experience that will put racing fans’ skills to the test and force them to learn new techniques. This versatility will be of great use in V-Rally 4’s Career Mode, which lies at the heart of the game’s experience and takes drivers on an action-packed trip around the world.

A couple of weeks ago, Bossa Studios put out a video that seemed to hint at a Switch version of Surgeon Simulator. The studio made it official today, and announced that Surgeon Simulator CPR (Co-op Play Ready) is coming to Nintendo’s console.

In Surgeon Simulator CPR, you’ll play as Nigel Burke – a would-be surgeon with a less-than-conventional toolkit – in which you perform terrifying transplants in theatre, high-pressure procedures in an ambulance, and anti-gravitational operations in space. The notoriously difficult controls are still present here, but making the experience special are some new Switch features.
