The game had players taking control of a vehicle piloted by two Orks, one driver and one gunner, who were fighting against up to 15 enemy vehicles, 32 players in total with the aim of destroying opposing vehicles.[2]

Vehicles would have been totally customisable and arenas featured booby traps and crowd interaction.[3]

Development

Gorkamorka was designed from the racing engine used in Jeff Gordon XS Racing.[3] A playable demo was shown at E3[1] The game was scheduled to be released in October 2001 but was cancelled.
