Top Gear has launched a new interactive experience, The Stigverse, on the social gaming platform, The Sandbox. The game takes players on a thrilling journey through various zones, including the wild All-Terrain Zone and the chaotic Scrapyard. Players will be challenged to tame malfunctioning clones of The Digital Stig, known as The Gits, who are wreaking havoc throughout the virtual world.

This exciting new venture is the result of a collaboration between BBC Studios and Reality+, the game studio behind Doctor Who: Worlds Apart. Together, they’ve created a unique digital experience, offering a fresh take on the beloved Top Gear brand for a new audience.

Within The Stigverse, players will encounter a variety of characters, including the troublesome Unfortunate Git, the fiery Flamin’ Git, and the main villain, Science Git. The Top Gear team is overwhelmed, and it’s up to players to help restore order and stop the madness. Get ready for a wild, fun-filled ride as you take on the unpredictable chaos caused by The Gits!

Players must take charge, restore calm, and round up the escaped Gits across seven fun-filled zones inspired by themes from Top Gear’s engineering challenges: The Stage; All-Terrain; Mountain; Lake; Aerial; and The Scrapyard, along with the place where all the problems started – The Clone Lab.

Each zone features challenges and quests, such as reconstructing the world’s fastest tractor – The Trak-Tor – to sliding down a snowy slalom in a race against a rally car and running a daring gauntlet in a scrapyard.

The Sandbox is a social gaming platform , where BBC Studios now joins over 400 brands, including Renault, Square Enix, Attack on Titan, ATARI, Ubisoft, Lionsgate, Warner Music Group, Snoop Dogg, Paris Hilton, and many more.
