I hope they do something better for the battle modes. I mean Shine Thief from DD was amazing.

There's going to be a new battle mode where you and your team have to protect your AI faction leader from another team while trying to capture the other team's faction leader. You then have to drag the faction leader to a location on the map to sacrifice him and launch a rocket. You then have to guide the rocket to a statue representing the other team and blow it up. You have to repeat this 3 times to win.

Destructoid

The graphics are crisp, detailed, and very dense in design, and not to mention this game runs at a rock solid 60FPS and at 1080p

It can't be 1080p?

Rainbow Road is gorgeous @_@;
