8 Video Games That NEVER Got Their Due

6. Road Redemption

Across the 2010s, not one but two heavily Road Rash-inspired spiritual sequels entered development: Road Rage and Road Redemption.

It resulted in two Kickstarter campaigns, two sets of updates happening for two games that could hopefully take the likes of Road Rash 3D and Road Rash 64, and bring it to a new era.

Well, where Road Rage is an absolute tire fire, EQ Games and Pixel Dash's Road Redemption - after literal years of updates - finally became what we always wanted after its 2019 patch.

Speed on the bikes is crazy fast, a nice array of weapons let you take out opponents and the police with sword decapitations, Terminator 2-style spinning shotguns or just a charged kick, launching your foe into someone else.

A roguelike structure carries some upgrades across multiple playthroughs, meaning you'll eventually start runs with booster rockets, a sledgehammer in-hand and plenty of nitrous in the tank.

Road Redemption took an age to get over the finish line with any confidence, but playing today feels like a lost 90s-style gem in the best way.
