Racers will be able to choose from a variety of Hot Wheels vehicles, which each have different attributes and can be customized with visual skins. The game’s tracks will feature Hot Wheels’ orange track pieces, along with elements like loops and jumps.
Finally, Hot Wheels Unleashed will feature a Track Editor that allows players to create their own race tracks and then share them online for other players to try.
Hot Wheels Unleashed will be released on Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC on September 30, 2021. It’s available to pre-order now.
