Gameplay and plot


The game stars "I.R.I.S." (voiced by Lisa Foiles), a sentient motorcycle that looks similar to light cycles from the Tron franchise. It graduated from Big Arms Academy's School of Assassination as valedictorian.[4] The bike can perform over 40 forms of combat and speaks 50 languages.[3] It can also travel a mile in 20 seconds (180 mph or 290 km/h), and can cloak.[6] I.R.I.S. is accompanied by a Spanish-speaking mechanic named Pablo (voiced by Freddy Rodriguez), who is literally dragged along behind her during the game's events.[7]

Robert Patrick provides the voice of an antagonist motorcycle called S.P.I.K.E. Additionally, the game features live-action sequences with performance by actors such as Freddy Rodriguez, James Gunn, and Tom Savini.[7] There is also a cameo in a cutscene of internet talents Michael Jones and his wife Lindsay Jones, of Rooster Teeth fame.[8]


Reception


The PC version of LocoCycle received "mixed" reviews, while the Xbox 360 and Xbox One versions received "generally unfavorable reviews", according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[9][10][11] GameZone's Mike Splechta said of the Xbox One version: "While LocoCycle is the worst looking game of the Xbox One launch, it's saved thanks to its over the top and fun gameplay".[19]
