Motorstorm Apocalypse (found E3 2010 beta build of 3D racing game; 2010)
Motorstorm Apocalypse E3 Demo is a pre-alpha showcase demo of the then upcoming game Motorstorm Apocalypse, developed by Evolution Studios, and published by Sony Computer Entertainment in 2011.
This demo was first showcased at E3 2010, only for it to remain lost until its resurgence in 2017-2020.
Gameplay
This E3 2010 Demo features a single track which consists of a mixture of the Rookie and Pro's Exodus tracks, in the final game's Festival Mode. Players must race from point-to-point in an attempt to make the best time possible on the leaderboard, while evading the collapsing environment surrounding them, and overtaking other racers. There is only one playable vehicle, which is the Ozutsu Blacksun J-GT supercar.
Status
This specific build was seen for the first time at E3 2010, where visitors could play this demo that was running on a PS3 Debug/Devkit. However, after E3 2010 ended, this build was considered lost. For years, the only proof of existence of this build was a video uploaded to YouTube on June 17th 2010 by user RajmanGaming HD. In 2017, this build was finally discovered by user Paulweeze71, from a preservation group called Obscure Gamers, and was made available to the public for the first time in a release by the same group, on August 4th, 2020.
Notes:
While the found build is indeed the same as the one on Rajman Gaming HD's YouTube video, the player car livery is different. It is speculated that the livery seen in the YouTube video could be contained in the game, but has yet to be found.
