Trackmania 20th Anniversary updates
To celebrate Trackmania's 20th anniversary, the developers are bringing in some exciting new features. They are revealing the "Original Trilogy" via mini-remakes, bringing back nostalgic content from past years but with modern twists.
Players will be happy to see the return of snow! They can transform the Stadium Car into the Snow Car and race it on a brand-new surface—wood. These wooden roads will provide a challenge, making turns indefinite and making cars build up speed. Along with these items comes the return of one of the iconic Asian atmosphere environments, from the initial Snow environment, filled with 100 new 3D blocks and fresh items specially crafted for the occasion.
