Supercross 3D was originally listed for a September 1995 release before being pushed back to December.[5][6][7] The game makes use of SGI-rendering for the bike riders, which all of them were created by using advanced kinematics and wavefront modeling, giving them a more sharper appearance. This marked a technological advancement for Atari Corp., as it was one of the first titles for the system to make use of the SGI technology.[8] It was also showcased during the Fun 'n' Games Day event hosted by Atari.[9]
