Motorstorm Apocalypse imploding store shelves on April 12

Off-road racing fanatics and PlayStation 3 owners can rejoice that MotorStorm Apocalypse has met its Spring release date and will be on sale April 12, 2011.  From Monument Valley, to The Island, to the Arctic Regions, this fourth installment in the over-the-top series takes us to a city as structures collapse all around us and frantic looters run the streets.  The game aims to be more action-packed than ever before with spur of the moment destruction and stereoscopic 3D.  Having played the game myself at PAX Prime, I can assure the skeptics that this game is one of the best arguments as to why 3D can take gaming to the next level.

Sony has also unveiled the game’s final boxart, which you can spy to your left. Personally, I think it looks a little cheesy next to the awesome European art. But then, isn’t that always the case?

I’ve been a big fan of the series since it launched on the PlayStation 3 and MotorStorm Arctic Edge is still frequently in my rotation of PSP games.  If the final product is anything like the demo, we can expect this one to not only live up to expectations, but completely blow them away.
