Waid Rosen, Chairman and CEO of Atari said this about the game:
“NeoSprint does an amazing job of bringing back the fun of single-screen co-op racing, while adding more modern elements of a racing sim. With its intense, co-op mayhem NeoSprint is a worthy addition to the Sprint Series lineage.”
A synopsis for NeoSprint reads:
With NeoSprint, Atari returns to the single-screen racing format first made popular in the 1970s by the Sprint Series arcade machines. NeoSprint enhances the single-screen formula with contemporary features, including a rich and colorful 3D isometric presentation, upgradable cars, a track-builder, and the ability to compete against the best track times of players from across the globe.
