Grab Your Helmet, Mad Skills BMX Is Coming Soon

Remember Mad Skills Motocross? It was a pretty challenging yet immensely enjoyable dirt bike stunt racing game that came out at the start of 2011.

Since then, developer Turborilla has been hard at work on a new title: Mad Skills BMX with its release date set for August 16. While we'll be giving it the full review treatment in time for release day, we checked out the official trailer for it and just had to share.

Besides demonstrating that plenty of BMX racing fun should be guaranteed next week, it's also a pretty entertaining trailer in its own right with a vibrant punk rock soundtrack and edgy animation reminiscent of something you'd see in Beavis and Butthead. It's not often that trailers manage to tell a simple story as well as demonstrate what to expect from a game, and it's great to see here.

Check it out below. Hopefully, similar effort has been implemented throughout the game. We'll let you know how it plays next week.
