Back in 2010, Qubic Games surprised us with the Gold Award-winning sci-fi racer AiRace.

The stylus controls took a lot of players a bit to get used to, but once we found our feet with them we had no trouble endorsing AiRace as "the best racing game for DSiWare" and "the best DSiWare game to date".

Now, the sequel - AiRace Speed - is on its was to the 3DS eShop and has a firm release date of September 19.

No Keanu in this Speed

We had the opportunity to go hands-on with AiRace Speed at E3 and found it to be "one of the unexpected gems" of the massive gaming conference despite its relatively low profile.

The precision of the touch controls make flying a breeze in AiRace Speed, but there's still plenty of challenge to be found in the levels that we played.

So while AiRace Speed is a bit behind the July/August launch window we initially reported, the gameplay video below should more than make up for the delay.
