The incredibly addictive physics-based motorcycle game Trials HD is set to receive new content later this year, with the Big Thrills DLC add-on coming to XBLA.

"Ever since we released the first Trials HD expansion, gamers have demanded more," said Antti Ilvessuo, the game's lead designer and creative director of RedLynx. "They email us every day, they post on our message boards, and lately they've started calling my house and chasing me down the street. With this announcement, I can now emerge from hiding and get back to making games."

The new downloadable content includes 50 all-new tracks, with 40 tracks created by the sadists over at RedLynx, and 10 user-created tracks, "fully credited and featured right alongside the professional levels". And there's cash and prizes to be won too!

"We're thrilled - no pun intended - to present this contest with our partners at Microsoft," said Tero Virtala, CEO of RedLynx. "We couldn't think of a better way to give back to our fans than to give them the opportunity to have their work featured right alongside ours in the next expansion of the legendary Trials HD game."

Unfortunately, as always happens with these kinds of things, it's only open to a few select countries, but if you're still interested, check out the competition page at BigThrillsContest.com.

The Trials HD Big Thrills DLC is currently scheduled for a Q4 launch on Xbox LIVE.
