Codemasters has detailed the special abilities of all eight vehicle classes in ONRUSH – its upcoming action-packed and visually-stunning MotorStorm spiritual successor launching on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 consoles on June 5th, 2018.

Each of the eight classes in ONRUSH has a unique RUSH fuel with different special abilities and traits. To secure wins for your team, you’ll need to be proficient in whichever vehicle you choose and use its abilities and traits at the perfect moment. You can also swap vehicles mid-event, so if there’s something you aren’t happy in, feel free to exchange it for another vehicle upon your next respawn before you rush back into the action.

RUSH is the ultimate manifestation of boost and power that allows you to wreak havoc on your opponents and take control of the race – and each vehicle class comes with its own unique form of it. Have a look at the different abilities for each one below:

The new ‘Choose Your Weapon’ trailer highlights many of the different vehicles at your disposal and how you can use them to lead yourself and your teammates to victory.

So, there you have it – the eight different, unique classes of ONRUSH and each of their special abilities. Think you have what it takes for the RUSH? The Open Beta arrives in May and will be available to those first who pre-order the upcoming arcade racer on PlayStation 4 consoles.
