Dangerous Driving puts aggression back into the racing genre, recapturing the spirit of the past and taking it to a new place. Dangerous Driving is a game about real driving. The sort of driving you want to do when no one else is looking. The sort of driving you’d love to do if only everyone else would get OUT OF THE DAMN WAY!
This game gives you the chance to live out that fantasy. To floor it in everyday cars, at high speeds, weaving in and out of traffic and slamming the other cars right off the road.
This is a game built in the spirit of the classic arcade racing games of the 80’s and 90’s. It’s about speed, driving skill and beautiful powerslides around epic corners.
It’s also about all out aggression, instant retaliation and sweet, sweet revenge.
The more dangerously you drive, the faster you can go.
Dangerous Driving puts aggression back into the racing genre, recapturing the spirit of the past and elevating it to new heights. Players will race ruthless opponents in a series of intense game modes, across 30 heart-stopping courses packed with mayhem and carnage.
There are 9 modes featured in the game, offering players the chance to either out-race their opponents or ensure their rivals don’t even make it to the finish line.
The Dangerous Driving modes include:
- Race - Takedown based race against 5 AI opponents. Players fight to be first. Dangerous and aggressive driving (near misses, drifting, driving in oncoming, near misses, battling) all earn boost allowing players to go even faster.
- Heatwave - A race focused on speed. Takedowns are not active, so players must rely on their racing skills. Dropping a whole boost bar in one go refills the boost (called a Heatwave), allowing players to chain these together.
- Face Off - 1 on 1 events against a rival to win their car. The rival is racing flat out so the only way to win is to slow them down via takedowns, whilst trying to avoid crashing.
- Shakedown - A fast lap against the clock. Medals are awarded based on time alone.
- Eliminator - One competitor is eliminated each lap in this 5 lap race. If players are in last place the position counter will flash red. Takedown rivals to get ahead and avoid elimination.
- GP - Players compete across 3 takedown race events to see who will win overall. Points are carried forward.
- Survival - A solo event where players race through a series of checkpoints - how long can players survive without crashing or running out of time?
- Pursuit - Play as the police and takedown targets before they escape.
- Road Rage - Players must score as many takedowns as possible against the clock.
