Video Game developer 'Roll7' has announced 'OlliOlli World,' a mythical two-dimensional skateboarding game with a cartoony art style. In OlliOlli World, players assume control of an aspiring skateboarding professional who embarks on a fun-filled quest through a mythical world to become a skateboard wizard.
The setting for the game is a fictional world named 'Radlandia,' which was created by the 'Skate Gods.' This world is full of mystical, fun creatures such as 'Ghost Trees,' Zom-Bees,' 'Aliens,' and even 'Living Cactuses.' This game is a far stretch from a typical sports game as it delivers comical and magical twists on every aspect of the genre, from the environment to the abilities of the characters.
OlliOlli World releases on February 8th, 2022, on all major consoles and PC through Steam.
