Hard Truck: Apocalypse Preview

Game Industry has put together a preview of Buka Entertainment's Hard Truck: Apocalypse, after getting some firsthand time with the vehicular action RPG. Here's a taste:
Towns contain not only garages, but also bars where you can get missions and raise money. Missions consist of delivering cargo, killing someone, protecting an area against raiders and a variety of other objectives. You get money if you complete the missions, which can be used to make your truck better with more fuel capacity, more armor or better weapons. Eventually you may even be able to purchase an entirely new ride.

There are several different styles of trucks, with each one reflecting a slightly different play style from light and fast to heavy and packing plenty of firepower. Even slow and heavy trucks can eventually be brought up to speed with enough upgrades.
