Monster Truck Championship is available today for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. Previously released on PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch, Monster Truck Championship on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S will run at 4K resolution and 60 FPS in solo or online multiplayer.
Unfortunately, there’s no free upgrade to next-gen, for those of you that have already purchased the game.
In Monster Truck Championship, you take the wheel of one of 16 vehicles and enter five types of event. In these championships, you will compete in 25 stadiums and circuits in various cities across the United States. Taking a realistic approach to driving rather than an arcade-game style, Monster Truck Championship gives players the chance to take part in frenzied races and pull off believable aerial and ground moves by learning the unique physics of these vehicles.
Monster Truck Championship boasts many features:
- 25 circuits in different cities across the United States
- 5 types of event: Race, Time-Trial, Drag Races, Freestyle and Destruction
- 16 customisable vehicles with over 50 options

Teyon and Nacon initially released Monster Truck Championship on the PS4, PC, and the Xbox One in October and are now releasing the upgraded edition for the next-gen consoles here in North America on March 16. I initially did the review back in October, so for this next-gen Monster Truck Championship review, I hoped some of my issues with the first release would either be eradicated or corrected. That being said, instead of comparing this version to the initial one, I wanted to take a fresh look at what Monster Truck Championship offers to the community on the PS5 and Xbox Series X, and how it stands on its own four wheels.
