- TRL Update - Winter has arrived - 5 December 2017
We're very excited to bring you a new set of tracks. As we've teased before, these tracks are in a winter setting. We have also added forfeiting, a new track mechanic, private lobbies and more things we hope you'll enjoy. Let us know what you think! Major changes As our early holiday gift to you, we have released a new area: Snow. Three new levels in a yet unexplored setting are now playable in both local modes and online clashes. Be careful on the ice, things may get slippery! A new mechanic: Slip Barriers. Make your opponents Go Berserk and give your teammates a boost with these new barriers in Curve Creek (Forest 1). Tracks now have names! Instead of the boring ol' "Desert1", "Desert2", etc., we've named them to better capture the atmosphere and character of the tracks. Custom matches are now available! Decide on which area you want to play, how many players are able to join, and whe…

- Into the woods! - 2 October 2017
We're very excited to announce the first update since our successful Gamescom visit. And it's a big one! New tracks, local multiplayer, controls remapping, improvements to reduce waiting time for online matches and more. New content up the wazoo! What's new? Rematch functionality: after a match has concluded, a rematch will automatically start. Less waiting, more racing! Not a full lobby yet? Start up a Time Trial race and keep your waiting queue active while racing! We've added Time Trial weekly leaderboards on top of the existing all time leaderboards. The Forest area comes with three new booming race tracks that are now playable both in Time Trial, online AND local multiplayer! (Note that we will polish the tracks both visually and functionally, so there might be some small collider issues at the moment. Let us know what you think of the new tracks!) Local multiplayer? That's right!…

- Gamescom aftermath - 4 September 2017
Leute! We are back from a trip to Cologne to Gamescom last week. It was busy, it was awesome, and very insightful. In this post we'll explain what you can expect from TRL the upcoming weeks. While it was the fourth year in a row for Gamious, this years Gamescom was our entertainment/consumer area debut. Team Racing League had an awesome booth across the Indie Arena, where two teams of three could battle each other sitting on theater chairs, staring at a 78" screen. There was a line constantly and nearly all players who tried out the game where hyped to play some more. It strengthened us in seeing and believing in the potential of the game. We got back to the Netherlands with good feedback and a drive to improve the game as good and as fast as we can. FIXES, BALANCING, TWEAKS The current update we're working on is about fixing existing 'issues'. For example, we noticed some gameplay feat…

- Play 1v1 2v1 2v2 2v3! - 15 August 2017
Hi all. Here's the first update after the Early Access launch, including playing online with less than 6 players, the opportunity to receive Steam keys for two of your buddies, daily events and some bugfixes! While we're very happy with the fact that Team Racing League is now available on Steam Early Access, the launch didn't go as well as we hoped for. The player numbers aren't high so finding a match at this moment isn't easy. No worries! We're doing all we can to improve player numbers and make the game more appealing to play, both for people who already own the game as for new potential players. START MATCHES WITH LESS THAN 6 PLAYERS We designed the game to be played with two teams of 3 players. This formation gives the most dynamic and teamplay options (connecting with teammates, dividing block/race/troll roles, etc). However, since we don't have a big player base at the moment, we…
