This sequel to the critically acclaimed title, Hot Wheels Unleashed™, will be released on October 19, 2023 on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch™ and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store
NEW GAME MODES FOR EVEN MORE FUN
In Hot Wheels Unleashed 2™ – Turbocharged, have fun in so many ways! Whether it’s through adrenaline-filled moments, challenges that push you to use your skills to the max, or merciless confrontations, the game will offer you a variety of new modes that will bring you a breath of fresh air
In addition to the modes so popular with fans of the first opus, five new game modes will enrich the racing experience. In the new Elimination mode, players will have to rely solely on their survival instincts, as the slowest vehicles will be eliminated as they go. Players will have to pay attention to every detail: their pace, their position, the risks involved, and when they should pass their opponents. Drift enthusiasts, meanwhile, can make their tires squeal on the asphalt in Drift Master mode. Players will need to maintain style and precision to accumulate points and dominate the competition. Here, speed will play a secondary role, favoring the most agile vehicles since countersteering and throttle control will be the keys to victory
Hot Wheels Unleashed 2™ – Turbocharged will feature five different environments, and the Maypoint mode will allow players to explore all of them in order to discover their secrets. They’ll have to abandon the orange tracks to immerse themselves in a whole new experience, in complete freedom. Also off the track, Grab the Gears mode offers the perfect blend of skill, strategy and action. Finally, in Clash Derby mode, chaos reigns supreme! This ultimate online duel, reserved for Monster Trucks, allows players to take on their opponents with the most powerful blows possible

Hot Wheels Unleashed™ 2 – Turbocharged will take players back to the city. Darla and Robert, the protagonists, accompanied by their robotic assistant XR046, will be called upon to save the day and restore peace after a wave of creatures have been released by Professor Tanabe, by mistake. Players will be able to discover each character’s personality via animated cutscenes, immersing them in a narrative journey that will take them into breathtaking battles with five bosses, with the aim of saving the city and its inhabitants!
