PikPok has announced Rival Stars Horse Racing: Desktop Edition, their horse racing management experience, will release on June 25, on Steam for both PC and Mac users. You can breed the perfect champion, by caring for and training your own stable of horses, managing a homestead ranch, and racing for victory.
“Rival Stars Horse Racing gives players the opportunity to explore the exciting world of horse racing from all angles and develop their own unique experience,” says Mario Wynands, managing director of PikPok. “Between online multiplayer, the local betting party, and solo features like stable management and horse creator, there’s a fun experience any way you want to play.”
In Rival Stars Horse Racing, players take the reins of a neglected family homestead with the aim to turn their worn-out farm into a thriving equestrian center. A friendly cast of characters assist in this goal as the narrative unfolds. By breeding, training, and racing horses as well as upgrading their homestead, players climb the racing leaderboards and restore their family’s horse management legacy. You’re in charge – manage a homestead and decide when to invest, upgrade facilities, or hire caretakers.
