Then there are loop-the-loops and even boss set pieces containing large creatures, like a giant spider, than can spit webs or acid pools to slow you down.
There are different types of track pieces that will give you a boost when run over, and there are occasionally barriers that will slow you down. Race variations are standard quick races, time attacks or split screen and you’ll be racing over a mix of on-track and off-track scenery depending on the environment you’re in. The are six different environments you can race at release including the basement, skate park, garage, track room, skycraper and college campus. Once you’re in the race, that’s the focus and it performed really well on the Xbox Series X. There is a world map where you get to choose which race to do next, but that’s a structural thing completely separate to the racing. While I really enjoyed my time in that variation, it was good to be in dedicated races that have starts and finishes with no open world aspects to it at all. The last time I raced in this Hot Wheels setting with bright oranges and blues on plastic tracks was the Forza Horizon 3 Hot Wheels expansion. Racing in Hot Wheels Unleashed is a heck of a lot of fun.
