Airspeeder has partnered with Saltwater Games to bring its racing eVTOL series into Celeros, a new mixed-reality AAA racing game.

Celeros is being developed by the creators of Gran Turismo, WipEout, and Need for Speed, promising a dynamic and authentic racing experience.

In the AirspeederXR game, players can earn in-game digital assets that can be invested in real-world causes, delivering sustainable, real-world impact via a balanced economic model that relies on investments in real-world social and environmental causes.

Celeros will allow gamers to learn, race, configure speeders, and develop skills with a chance to become a real pilot when Airspeeder launches its crewed racing series in 2024.

The Celeros Academy has also been opened, by enrolling, individuals can learn more about configuring speeders, including understanding the Collision Avoidance Systems, motors, batteries, and propellers needed to enhance the AirspeederXR racing performance.

Len Findlay, CEO of Saltwater Games, said: “We’re dedicated to creating a world-leading gaming experience that combines modern and future motorsport with an innovative game economy that supports real-world environmental projects. We’re using the latest technology to build a community where gamers can come together to race and learn, all while making a positive impact on our planet. With Celeros, players will be able to enjoy the excitement of competitive mixed-reality racing while also engaging in Play2Impact, a ground-breaking initiative that allows gamers and partners alike to make a real difference in the lives of millions of people.”

Matt Pearson, CEO of Airspeeder, added: “Celeros will push the envelope of what is achievable when gamers come together, revolutionizing impact through gameplay. The first doors into the world of Celeros are now open and we’re inviting people to take part in a new pilot academy to learn more about the AirspeederXR Race Series and the vehicles they will be able to fly.”
