A new sound tears through the wastelands — not music, not noise, but something far more destructive. In the latest content update for Battle Cars, a force unlike anything before crashes into the arena. Brutal. Relentless. Uncontainable.
Meet Slashburn, the living distortion — and his monstrous machine: Psycho.
🔥 Vehicle – Psycho
Class: Midweight (Tier 8)
Ultimate: Infernal Pursuit
Launch a homing electric skull that tracks its target, dealing massive damage on impact. The blast launches the target and nearby enemies into the air while applying EMP, crippling their controls and systems.
Psycho isn’t built for elegance — it’s built for domination. As a midweight vehicle, it strikes the perfect balance between durability and aggression, allowing it to pressure enemies while maintaining battlefield presence. Its Infernal Pursuit ultimate disrupts entire engagements, breaking formations and leaving enemies vulnerable in mid-air.
Where others fight for position, Psycho forces chaos — turning every encounter into a violent spectacle.
🎸 Slashburn – Symphony of Ruin
Pilot Ability: Amplified Cataclysm
Enhances Infernal Pursuit, increasing its damage and transforming the electric skull into an even more destructive force.
Slashburn doesn’t follow rhythm — he creates it through destruction. His presence amplifies Psycho’s already devastating capabilities, turning its ultimate into a true battlefield-ending event. With him behind the wheel, every activation of Infernal Pursuit becomes a statement: loud, explosive, and impossible to ignore.
🎤 Meet Slashburn – The Sound of Collapse
Razor-edged dunes. Burnt convoys. Signal towers screaming static into the sky.
Beyond the Neo-district’s reach — where control fades and chaos thrives — the world doesn’t hum.
It howls.
That’s where Slashburn was first heard.
No records. No origin. Just sound — a distorted chord tearing through outlaw frequencies. Then came the sightings: a lone figure in jagged armor, wearing a horned metal skull, red eyes glowing through the dust.
His guitar isn’t just an instrument.
It’s a weapon.
Flame and sound fused together — every riff capable of unleashing destruction.
His car, Psycho, feels less engineered and more unleashed. A brutal midweight machine with oversized wheels and a frame built to crush, its front shaped like a snarling metal beast with serrated jaws. It doesn’t race — it hunts.
Its engine roars in sync with Slashburn’s riffs like a war drum on wheels.
Recently, corrupted audio signals have begun leaking into the city. Not quite music. Not quite noise.
A warning.
When Slashburn enters the arena, the system can’t classify him. No faction. No history.
But the moment the first chord hits—
Everyone feels it.
🔥 Ranged Weapon – Inferno Amp
Type: Close-range Flamethrower
Perk: Incendiary Beam
A devastating short-range flamethrower that deals high damage up close. As you continuously unleash its searing beam on the same enemy, the weapon increases its damage over time — turning your target into a raging inferno.
Upgrades allow it to further amplify close-range damage and apply burn, dealing additional damage over time.
Built for aggression, Inferno Amp rewards players who commit to the fight and maintain pressure without letting up.
⚡ Melee Weapon – Suppressor
Perk: Thunderstruck Tazer
Strikes enemies with a powerful EMP effect, paralyzing them on impact. The electrifying force delivers both heavy damage and a stunning shock, immobilizing targets and leaving them completely exposed.
Suppressor ensures that once Psycho gets close — escape is no longer an option.
⚡ Playstyle – Controlled Chaos
Psycho thrives in disruption and relentless pressure. A powerful strategy is to engage enemies aggressively using Inferno Amp, stacking damage over time as you stay locked onto your target.
Once enemies attempt to disengage or retaliate, activate Infernal Pursuit to launch them into the air and disable their systems, creating an opening for total domination.
If anyone manages to get too close — or tries to fight back — finish them with Suppressor, locking them down with EMP and sealing their fate.
With Slashburn, the battlefield isn’t controlled.
It’s overwhelmed.
⚡ Enter the Arena
With Slashburn and Psycho, Battle Cars introduces a new kind of force — one driven by chaos, sound, and raw destructive energy.
Whether you prefer relentless close-range pressure, disruptive EMP control, or unleashing devastating ultimates that shatter enemy formations, Slashburn delivers an experience that is as loud as it is lethal.
The system can’t define him.
The wastelands already did.
He’s not part of the signal.
He’s the distortion that breaks it.
