While Fusion had the right mechanical foundation, I thought it fell short with its futuristic theme and misplaced emphasis on tricks. It felt like a step down from the stellar Trials Evolution.<br /><br />With that aftertaste lingering in my mouth since 2014, I wasn't feeling super confident about Trials Rising. Ubisoft's demo at E3 has lifted my spirits, though -- the game seems like a return to form.<br /><br />There wasn't any one particular element that stood out to me as the difference maker, but it had the right look and more importantly the right handling. Levels themed around a skate park and an amusement park were lively yet easy to read, and despite not playing Trials in a good long while, I slipped right back into my old ways in Rising. This is shaping up to be comfort food for fans.<br />The main new aspect of Rising on display at E3 was a cooperative Tandem Bike mode in which two players share control of one bike. You each use your own controller and have influence over your ride. That might sound like a nightmare in a platforming game as technical as Trials, but it was genuinely fun seeing the look of horror on my partner's face as I went for an extra flip (or two) she wasn't expecting.<br /><br />I only played a few levels shown in the trailer above (and then replayed them with the Tandem Bike), so my experience was admittedly surface-level. It's clear Trials Rising is heading in the right direction, though. I've come away expecting a palate cleanser, which is exactly what I want from this game.<br /><br />Ubisoft is planning a closed beta before the February 2019 launch on PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Switch.<br /><br /><br /><br />Get back on the bike - Trials Rising is coming to PS4.
