What’s up racers?
We can’t believe that Turbo Golf Racing is literally less than a week away from launching! The excitement here at Hugecalf is at maximum overdrive and we can’t wait to join you in-game on August 4th.
Ahead of next week’s launch, we wanted to give you a brief overview of the game’s Power Core system. It’s a key component to getting a competitive edge on your opponents on the fairway, as this allows you to customise your vehicle to suit your playstyle.
Types of Power Core:
There are two types of Power Core: Passive and Active. As the name suggests, Passive Cores are ‘always on’ and you don’t need to worry about activating them mid-race. Active Cores on the other hand need to be triggered during a race with a simple button press, and have a short cooldown before they can be used again.
Power Core Sockets:
Each vehicle is equipped with two Power Core Sockets that give players the freedom to mix-and-match Power Cores to suit their playstyle. The Power Socket permits the use of either Passive or Active Power Cores, while the Passive Socket will only accept Passive Power Cores.
Unlocking Power Cores:
Power Cores are unlocked by completing various challenges in-game. For example, to unlock the Hot Head Power Core, you must complete five online matches.
Active Power Cores:
Today, we’re going to cover just the three Active Power Cores and we’ll have a separate post tomorrow looking at the Passive Power Cores.
Active Cores
 |
Magnet Magnetises the ball towards your car – The perfect Power Core for when you accidently overshoot the hole |
 |
Quick Flip Performs a quick flip or roll to gain speed – Use this Power Core to avoid a rocket attack or to get a bit of a speed boost |
 |
Shock Creates a short-range shockwave which pushes your ball away from your car – Need to clear the rough in a hurry? This is the Power Core for you! |
Experimenting with different combinations of Power Cores is an important gameplay tactic to ensure you have the advantage on the course. With the right combination, you’ll be able to play to your strengths as a racer and sprint towards the finish flag.
More Power Cores will be added to Turbo Golf Racing in the future as free content updates, alongside new Seasons, cosmetic items, and even full courses.
In Sunday's post we’ll be looking at the Passive Power Cores.
See you on the starting line,
