Get ready for an exhilarating journey into the world of extreme sports gaming! Matt Jones, a renowned pro MTB athlete, embarks on a mission to create an authentic open-world MTB game that will revolutionize the industry.
Matt Jones, a UK-based MTB legend, is known for his groundbreaking tricks, massive Red Bull projects, and impressive global tour achievements. In 2024, he teamed up with his Cascade Interactive co-founders to bring his vision to life - a game that truly captures the essence of mountain biking, blending realism with an incredible gaming experience.
"I've always been a fan of extreme sports games, but I felt there was a gap in the market for a bike game that truly represents the sport I'm passionate about. So, I decided to create Mavrix, a game that reflects everything I've learned and experienced in my career," Matt explains.
Mavrix is more than just a game; it's a labor of love and a testament to Matt's dedication to his sport. Set in a vast, open-world environment inspired by Wales, UK, players can explore breathtaking mountains, discover hidden trails, and compete in thrilling races and slopestyle events. The game offers a unique opportunity to live the life of a professional rider, from earning sponsorships to customizing your gear with real MTB brands.
But here's where it gets controversial... Matt's commitment to authenticity goes beyond the game's stunning visuals and immersive gameplay. He implemented dual-stick controls for precise steering and rider movement, and took it a step further by separating front and rear brakes onto individual triggers, offering an unparalleled level of control and realism.
Mavrix also features some of Matt's most iconic accomplishments, allowing players to recreate his legendary jumps, including the infamous River Gap from Red Bull Hardline. And this is the part most people miss - the game's attention to detail and respect for the sport's history.
Currently available in Game Preview on Xbox Series X|S, Mavrix is constantly evolving with new updates. The latest addition includes an exciting Slopestyle mode, designed by Matt himself, to replicate the real-life Slopestyle events he's experienced. Even the in-game judging and commentary are authentic, featuring legendary Red Bull commentator Rob Warner.
So, are you ready to join Matt Jones on this epic adventure? Pick up Mavrix today and experience the ultimate open-world MTB game. With its authentic physics, stunning visuals, and immersive gameplay, Mavrix is a must-have for any extreme sports enthusiast. But the real question is - will you be able to match Matt's skills and become the ultimate rider?
