RedLynx has announced that its game Trials HD has recently passed the one million sales mark, accomplishing this feat little more than a year after its release.
“Only a handful of downloadable console games have reached this plateau,” said Tero Virtala, CEO of RedLynx. “For a company of about thirty-five people, it’s a significant achievement, and it validates our strategy of focusing on online and downloadable games that have the potential to evolve into long-term, successful game franchises.”
This one million sales mark represents sales of the Trials HD game through Xbox LIVE Arcade and does not include sales of the first expansion pack, Trials HD – Big Pack.
“Congratulations to RedLynx for creating such a beloved, fun game that powerfully showcases the Arcade experience,” said Scott Austin, Director of Digitally Distributed Games at Microsoft. “We look forward to bringing more Trials HD content to the Xbox LIVE community with the upcoming release of Big Thrills.”
The second expansion pack for the game, Trials HD – Big Thrills, was announced recently and is targeted for a Q4 2010 release. Big Thrills will contain some 40 new tracks, including 10 tracks created by the game’s most dedicated fans, those who competed in the recent Track Creator Challenge.
