Motorcycles are people, too — or at least the martial-arts-trained self-aware motor bike from developer Twisted Pixel’s next game is.
Twisted Pixel revealed LocoCycle at last year’s E3, but the company was a bit hazy on the release details. That’s because the studio was preparing it as a launch title for Microsoft’s Xbox One console.
LocoCycle has players controlling a sentient bike that drags its unwilling rider across the country on a mission to gain freedom. In addition to the Xbox One version, Twisted Pixel is planning it for the Xbox 360.

Twisted Pixel has a long history working with Microsoft on its Xbox Live Arcade platform. The company released The Maw, ‘Splosion Man, Comic Jumper, and Ms. ‘Splosion Man on Microsoft’s digital-download platform. The developer also released its first physical title, The Gunstringer, exclusively for use with Xbox 360’s Kinect motion camera.
We’ll try to get our hands on with LocoCycle at Electronic Entertainment Expo trade show, which begins in earnest Tuesday. Twisted Pixel, Microsoft, and the rest of the game industry should have most of their new wares on display at the major event.
