Sync can be built passively or intentionally, by performing the Active Shift, a timely upshift which complements the vehicles’ automatic transmission. Sync acts as a versatile resource: you can spend it to Boost or to Shield against enemy attacks. Sync thus rewards you for skillful racing and well-timed actions, granting both racing and fighting advantages. [/p][p][/p][p]Importantly, using Sync generates Entropy, the energy that powers the two offensive mechanics called Strike and Overdrive. Strike is a short but lethal attack that can make enemies explode, while Overdrive is a powered-up state of the vehicle that brings with it high risk in exchange for high rewards. Overdrive boosts speed, grants temporary shielding, and enables knocking out opponents; however, if you are in Overdrive, you will explode if you crash into a wall. While Strike uses only part of the Entropy, Overdrive consumes it all, making strategy and wise deployment of both options essential to success.[/p][p][/p][p]In Screamer, races evolve dynamically as Sync and Entropy are built and spent, while differences in character abilities and vehicle handling create unique challenges every lap, both offline and online, where teamwork-driven racing will thrive.[/p]
