If you missed our SnowRunner review back in April of last year, read it here.

The sports and racing video game landscape are littered with options for very niche audiences, but in the last few months we have witnessed some even more unique approaches hit the market, which has included Overpass, and now SnowRunner by Saber Interactive. What makes both games unique is that the game’s focus is more on the user’s approach and understanding of the in-game task at hand, and less about the user’s ability or skills.

The follow-up to 2017’s MudRunner feels a bit deeper this time around, and Saber has used their experience to deliver a more refined title in the world of off-roading, but is it worthy of a purchase?
