About
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.
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.
Developed 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.
16 racing circuits provide the twists, turns and straights conducive to searingly quick racing. Take in coastal, jungle, alpine and Las Vegas desert environments, with each course modelled with the most vivid colours and blue skies for miles.
Time Trial and Grand Prix modes cater to those who like to compete in classic racing formats, while ‘Cops and Robbers’ and ‘Drive or Explode’ modes offer exhilarating new ways to play.
Each mode is available in single-player, four-player split-screen and eight-player online, while Time Trial is single-player only. Single-player modes run at a blistering 60FPS to deliver one of the fastest depictions of racing possible.
Smash lap records to rise-up the global online leaderboards or download ghost laps to match your racing lines against the very best.
Keiko, Xing, Mike, Alexa, Aston, Toshiro, Marcus and Viktor - eight speed addicts that have dedicated their lives to the pursuit of being the greatest racing driver in the world.
Drifting is crucial in Hotshot Racing. Boost charges as the player drifts so maintaining it for as long as possible is vital to preserving maximum speed throughout a race.
In this mode each car has a bomb attached to it. Drop below a certain speed and BOOM! The trigger speed gets faster and faster, forcing players to maintain impossibly high speeds.
Robbers evade the cops. Cops catch the robbers, and in doing so convert them to the police side, leading to an exciting test of skill for the surviving criminals.
Earn boost by drifting and slipstreaming opponents and unleash a one-shot hit of speed to leave them in your rear view mirror.

It's fun. It's not buggy. It has a good amount of depth without being overwhelming and the handling is surprisingly different between cars. The courses are well thought out and feel just long enough to stay interesting, while not being impossible to learn in an afternoon. I recommend this game to anyone looking for a casual arcade racer that brings you back to those cabinet racing games at your local surf bar.
I liked the retro style and easy mechanics. For the price this is an amazing game and the minimun specs are quite low, and if u cant meet the min specs then ur broke. Mind u I have a lenovo laptop with 2gb of vram on intergrated graphics and still got amazing frames. Nothing really to dislike.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

gioco di corse arcade da sala giochi più impegnativo che abbia mai giocato. i bot tirano pugni e menano tuonate assurde.
The arcade mode is very short, but the driving is solid and has some additional modes if you want to put in a few more hours. Get it for $5 or less.
Jogo muito divertido e colorido, bacana para jogar com os amigos
Hmm it doesn't work with controller! The button that's normally the "gas" button pauses the game and the "break" button doesn't do anything and there isn't anyway I can find to remap them. It's a shame I played the game on counsel before and it's a blast!
Блииин, ну как можно сделать гонки и не сделать поддержку руля? Ребята ну вы чё!!! Наверное буду делать рефанд. Давайте исправляйтесь!
if you have any love for the old arcade racers like cruisin world, or cruisin usa, this game is for you!
погонял как шумахер
ci ho giocato poco per ora, lo ammetto, ma mi ci sono divertito un sacco. evoca il feeling di ridge racer, ma mantiene la sua identità. un racing arcade simpaticissimo e divertente. consigliato.
