Empire Interactive today announced the next generation debut of the FlatOut franchise with FlatOut Ultimate Carnage, releasing on the Xbox 360 in June 2007.
The sales of the FlatOut 2 franchise have surpassed one million copies worldwide since its release in June 2006. FlatOut 2 actually beat out Need For Speed Carbon and Test Drive Unlimited for X-Play's ‘Best Racing Game of 2006’.
Developed by Bugbear Entertainment, FlatOut Ultimate Carnage is rebuilt from the ground up. Some of the many brand new design and gameplay components featured in FlatOut Ultimate Carnage include 12 cars racing on screen up from eight in FlatOut 2, five all-new single player and two all-new multiplayer game modes over Xbox Live. The game will show itself off in 720p and will allow downloadable content - certainly for a fee.

Commenting on the next generation debut of the FlatOut franchise, Ian Higgins, CEO of Empire Interactive remarked,
“The announcement of FlatOut Ultimate Carnage on Xbox 360 is the first since the acquisition of Empire Interactive by Silverstar, and will be followed by many other exciting announcements from the company throughout 2007. The FlatOut franchise has been incredibly successful to date with the first two games in the series both selling over one million copies around the world, so we are very excited in being able to reward the loyal FlatOut fan base with a next generation FlatOut game. FlatOut Ultimate Carnage is that game and it is undoubtedly the best FlatOut game to date."
