Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged is a racing video game developed and published by Milestone. A sequel to Hot Wheels Unleashed (2021), the game was released in October 2023 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X and Series S.
The game received generally favorable reviews upon release.
Like its predecessor, Turbocharged is a racing game. In the game, the player assumes control of vehicles from the Hot Wheels franchise, and races against other opponents in miniature tracks set in various everyday locations. Turbocharged's tracks are set in five different environments based in an arcade, a family backyard, a mini-golf course, a museum, and a gas station diner. Players can also access the "Track Room", which allows them to freely create their own racing tracks and share them online. Outdoor tracks introduce new terrain types such as grass and dirt, and some tracks introduce modules, which allows players to perform impossible feats such as defying gravity and racing on ceiling. Vehicles in the game can now double jump, allowing players to jump over other opponents or to reach secret areas, and "lateral drift", which enables players to bump their opponents off the track.
Turbocharged introduces two new vehicle types: motorcycles and all-terrain vehicles. At launch, the game will feature 130 distinct vehicles. Vehicles are also categorized into six different categories: Rocket, Balanced, Swift, Drifter, Off-Road, and Heavy Duty. Each category has their own advantages and disadvantages. Unlike the first game, players unlock vehicles by purchasing them directly in the game's store, which resembles an aisle in a toy store. The roster of cars available for purchase at a given moment is randomized every few hours. The appearance of each vehicle can be extensively customized using the game's livery editor. As players progress in the game, they will earn skill points, allowing them to upgrade their vehicles to improve their performance in a race. In addition to the original's standard race and time trials, Turbocharged adds more gameplay modes such as elimination events, drift challenges, and various online events. The game also features a story mode with animated cutscenes, cross-platform play (with the exception of the Switch), and two-player split-screen multiplayer. [Wikipedia]
