Hotshot Racing is a blisteringly fast arcade-style racing game fusing drift handling, razor-sharp retro visuals and an incredible sense of speed to create an exhilarating driving experience.ĭeveloped by racing game veterans SUMO Nottingham and Lucky Mountain Games, Hotshot Racing is an all-new driving experience which revives the classic arcade gameplay of the 90s and thrusts it into the modern era.ġ6 racing circuits provide the twists, turns and straights conducive to searingly quick racing. If you chose to go deeper into the game, you can learn about the character lore and embark on longer, multirace sessions for the racing itch.The Big Boss Bundle brings thrilling DLC to Hotshot Racing for free! New mode Barrel Barrage delivers the most incendiary action yet, while the Boss Level Grand Prix introduces an expanded selection of rapid racetracks. You don’t have to think much beyond stay in front, with options for quick races to satisfy those mindless fun urges. Overall I found the game just plain fun and simple. All the game types appear to support multiple players as well, with online support too. Drive or explode is a checkpoint based mode. Cops and robbers is a team based, objective oriented mode where you try to steal gold or capture the thiefs. Arcade races come in a few different varieties. The grand prix mode is the closest to a campaign, with a multiple race series awarding points based on finishing position to crown a champion.
The cars are not officially licensed but recognizable nonetheless, from classic muscle cars to modern endurance prototypes.
The tracks are varied, set in fantastical locations like under the ocean or a volcano. There isn’t a story per se, but each of the large cast of characters have different backstories, personalities, as well as strengths and weaknesses. The controls are about as simple as possible: gas, brake, boost, and if you play on manual, shift up and down. The art style is reminiscent of arcade racers, with bright high contrast colors. The game is a simple and fun arcade racer with several choices of track, difficulty, driver, car, and game mode. Now to the review! This will be a little shorter than usual as I received the game while vacationing, so I didn’t have as much time to play before release as others. The game releases September 10th for several platforms. Since I’m visually impaired, some things I have trouble with may not affect your experience. I received a review code from the Curve for the Xbox version of Hotshot Racing, with no expectations for this review.
