The Atlas Varjack Mud Plugger was converted from an 80's West Coast van in one day by a team of veterans. Packing a super charged V8, jacked suspension and 4WD, it's easily as good as anything in its class. There's plenty of space in the back too - maybe you can hire it if you need to salvage bits of your wreck.
- PlayStation Store description
The Atlas Varjack is a Mud Plugger in MotorStorm and MotorStorm: Pacific Rift. It is unique in that it is based off of a full-size van, unlike the majority of 'Pluggers which are primarily pickup trucks and SUVs.
Unlocking[]
MotorStorm[]
The Varjack was added to MotorStorm as downloadable content, through separate regional means:
- as part of the Capitano & Varjack vehicle pack, via the EU PlayStation Store[1];
- and as part of the Revenge Weekend, via the US PlayStation Store[2] (available individually as MotorStorm™ Vehicle 3[3])
MotorStorm: Pacific Rift[]
The Varjack is one of the default Mud Pluggers in Pacific Rift, alongside the Monarch Claymore.
Resemblance[]
The Varjack resembles a third-generation Chevrolet Van and/or the GMC Vandura Rally. The Varjack also, unlike its real-life counterparts, comes with bullbars and much higher ground clearance.
Trivia[]
- It looks somewhat similar to the Lunar-Tec Wendigo, although the Varjack is noticeably shorter.
- It strongly resembles the GMC Vandura used in the cult television show The A-Team.
- One of this vehicles' liveries in Pacific Rift features rusted cheqeurplate covering the entire bottom half of the body.
- That specific livery features an error on the vehicle select screen: the bull bars are colored wrong. They are colored gray when they should be yellow.
- In Pacific Rift, Oscar Gratz (brown livery), Dmitri Molotov (green/pink livery) and Travis Ryan (rusty "Rumic" livery) are the AI Characters seen driving this vehicle.
- Interestingly, these same 3 drivers all drive the Castro Capitanos, Wombat Mudslides and Humbler Diablos in their respective liveries.
