Locus is a racing video game developed by Zombie Studios and published by GT Interactive in North America. It was published in 1995 for MS-DOS, Microsoft Windows, and Mac OS.[1]

Gameplay[edit]

The player takes control of a mech in a competitive racing arena from a first-person perspective.[2] The arena has no gravity, so competitors can fly in any direction within a three-dimensional space.[2]

Reception[edit]

The French gaming magazine, "Joystick", gave a review of this game in February 1996.[3] The German edition of PowerPlay magazine also reviewed this game in March 1996.[4] Finally, the now defunct AllGame.com reviewed this game.[5]
