However,Inspired by the likes of Virtua Racing, Ridge Racer and Sega Rally, this retro-inspired racer mixes the thrill of arcade racing with modern game design elements. Racing purists, and new fans alike, can pick up and play Formula Retro Racing: World Tour due to its focus on simplicity. However, deeper mechanics like slipstreams and varied handling across different car types provide endless hours of replayability in the chase for the very best lap times.

    Players will race across 8 new landmark-filled cities, including Tokyo, Paris and London. Multiple vehicle types are the biggest new addition in World Tour. Master the art of kissing the apex, as players get to grips with World Tour's high-performance, muscle and standard race cars. Each one brings its own benefits and challenges to the track, and its up to players to find what works best for them.

    Formula Retro Racing: World Tour features crisp low-poly HD visuals running at 60fps, 4-player split-screen multiplayer, online leaderboards and classic checkpoint racing. Realistic destruction physics provide a sense of authenticity, alongside snappy car handling that places you at the heart of the action.    … Expand

    Formula Retro Racing: World Tour is a lovely nostalgia-filled throwback to the hoary days of 90s arcade driving games such as Daytona and Ridge Racer. It largely succeeds on that front and that it’s largely coded by a one man dev team is pretty remarkable. Sure, there’s a few rough edges and the music is largely forgettable, but this is still pretty good.

    Formula Retro Racing – World Tour is a fun but unremarkable way to waste away a number of hours. It’s nice that it packs in multiple modes and two classes of vehicles, even if the drift class isn’t quite as enjoyable to get to grips with as the other. And with its retro aesthetic and global leaderboards, some are likely to return to it again and again.
