Like Anki Drive, cars can shoot and immobilise each other but the addition of specific track pieces adds other incentives to the action. That won't be available on launch but there will be four different game modes initially available: time trial, race, battle and king of the hill. Armed with powerful weaponry and bringing a whole new game mode called Takeover with them, this expansion will add further depth to our favourite racing game. For example, add u-turn end pieces to open junctions and not only do you provide the AI cars a means to turn around and head back the other way, the fact that the track pieces can be different colours means that there can be a capture-the-flag style game where different players or teams must make their way to their opponent's base and back again. Update Anki have contacted us to let us know that a new range of vehicles will be arriving for Anki Overdrive in the near future in the form of Robotic Supertrucks. Thanks to the concept of a changing track layout, different game modes can be introduced that add to the videogaming element of Anki Overdrive. And as they too are made of vinyl, albeit a more sturdy and thicker version than the original rolled track, they can be bent to form banked curves and bridges.

There were other versions of the track released in the US, but apart from that you were limited in the circuit design. Ankis first product, Anki Drive, was released in Apple stores in the U.S. Anki Drive had a large, roll-out vinyl track that you could store in tube form and simply lay it out when you wanted to play. Perhaps the biggest difference between Anki Drive and Anki Overdrive comes in the form of the track. These are the major changes you can expect when Anki Overdrive launches on 20 September. The concept is the same but the application of that idea has been implemented in all-new, exciting ways. That's why it will launch a second generation game system, Anki Overdrive, which improves on the first in many ways.
