Ubisoft released Trials Fusion more than seven months ago, and it’s only just now getting around to adding online multiplayer.
The publisher announced today that it is preparing a free patch for Trials Fusion that will introduce a number of new features including the Online X-Supercross mode. This will enable players to go online and race against up to seven other people (only three others on Xbox 360). Developer RedLynx is also planning to introduce a new team feature that enables you to partner up in a group of 50 to compete in challenges against other teams. Unfortunately, you’re going to have to wait a bit longer for this update unless you’re on PC.

Starting today, PC players can join a beta for the multiplayer, which will include three modes.”
In addition to the Online X-Supercross, you can also set up private games to race against your friends on courses of your choosing. Ubisoft is also testing out a spectator mode on PC that will enable you to watch matches live as they happen.
A spectator mode is ideal for competitions and livestreaming, and RedLynx may try to court the e-sports crowd with this.
