VIDEO: Screamride - Preview Trailer [04:19]

Microsoft today released the first gameplay video for 2015's ScreamRide, an over-the-top roller coaster game being made by Frontier Developments exclusively for Xbox 360 and Xbox One. The game was announced back at Gamescom, but the video above serves as our first real look at it.

Executive producer Jorg Neumann explains that on one of Frontier Developments' inspirations for ScreamRide was actually The Centrifuge Brain Project--a mockumentary about futuristic thrill rides. (If you haven't seen the video, you can watch it here).

There are three main pillars of ScreamRide, Neumann explains. You'll be able to create thrill rides that would not be possible in real life (you'll even have access to the same editing tool that the developers used to make the game); ride your creations; and destroy the world around you.

Neumann says that ScreamRide presents "a level of destruction in this game that's unprecedented." You can see some of that massive structure destruction in the trailer above.

ScreamRide will also let you share your creations with friends across Xbox Live when it launches for Xbox 360 and Xbox One in spring 2015. A price for ScreamRide has not been announced.

Frontier Developments is well-versed in roller coaster games, as the studio also created the Thrillville series and worked on various installments in the Roller Coaster Tycoon franchise. In addition, the studio made Coaster Crazy Deluxe for Wii U.
