Re-Volt Wiki

Championship is a playmode in Re-Volt. It is where the player can unlock more tracks (but not their mirrored or reversed versions) and some cars. It's composed of 4 cups: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. Each cup has a set number of races, typically on the recently unlocked tracks. For each race, the third place or higher is required to qualify for the next race.

Overview[]

The Championship features a system of accumulation of points. A determined amount of points are collected according to the race results, being the first place who wins more points, while cars finishing 7th or 8th get nothing. Points are added during the progress of the championship and registered in a table showed in the end of each race. The player needs to end the championship at the top of this table to win it. It is possible to win by finishing in second or third, but no cars or tracks will be unlocked and the Progress Table will not change.

The Championship has three different AI difficulty presets, which make the opponents harder to beat in this mode than in the single race mode. The first preset is the easier from the three, and is used in the bronze cup. The second is the medium preset, and is used in the silver and gold cups. Finally, the last preset, which is the harder from the three, is used in the platinum cup. Since the 19.0301a build of RVGL, these presets could be set for single and multiplayer races as well by editing the profile.ini file.[1]

The Championship mode has a feature similar to the video games' lifes, which is called a Try. The player starts with three tries, having the option to use a try to restart the race if needed (Give Up Try). One try is automatically used when a 4th place or lower finish is achieved. If the player fails to finish 3rd or higher and has no more tries remaining, the championship is lost (Game Over).

A cutscene is shown in the end of the cups: The first three places (of the points table) are positioned in the Frontend Podium where they celebrate their victory. If the player finishes a cup in 4th place or lower, the player's car is placed beside the podium with the Bomb pickup activated, then explodes, sending it off onto the floor.

Finishing the championship with the highest number of points will give the player two cars in the boxes stack and tracks from the next cup. By winning the Platinum cup, the player will unlock two more cars and be crowned Re-Volt Master.

Re-Volt Credits plays after the Platinum cup is won.
