Hot Wheels tracks are usually filled with stunts, but the game rightly ups the ante. Unleashed sees players racing on elaborate Hot Wheels tracks that seem to take their cues from F-Zero or Wipeout rather than anything grounded in reality. It’s visually silly, but that’s all part of the appeal. There’s a certain unique novelty to seeing Ford, Honda, Koeingsegg and other official cars racing alongside a burger van and a kart depicting Snoopy sitting on his red kennel. Hot Wheels Unleashed celebrates the history of the toy company, with players able to race using a selection of Hot Wheels original cars and licensed cars too. Hot Wheels Unleashed is the brand’s best chance yet of being a fantastic racing game, but unfortunately, it doesn’t quite hit the mark. Turning a toy car brand into a proper racing game just seems like a pretty obvious decision. With a legacy that dates back over 50 years, it’s perhaps no surprise that there’ve been plenty of Hot Wheels games over the years.
