    The biggest disappointment among all switch games so far. First of all it’s simply not playable: - the bike is completely out of control. It can only go straight forward. Every time you need to turn - you are out from the track. And it’s not something you can get used to or adopt. No, it simply does NOT turn! - game freezes for a moment every 20-30 seconds or so

    Developers obviously tried to do a remake of classic Sega Road Rush game. Not only they are not even close, as I said, the game is totally not playable. And it’s me who loves original Road Rush a lot and was ready to forgive a lot just for a chance to play something similar to one of my favorite games!    … Expand

    This game on the switch has one major flaw, it keeps crashing and losing your progress!

    First of all i really want to like this game. After playing for a while, this just looks like another cash grap. Poorly made game that has been abandoned by dev, bought this when it was early access on steam. Since then the game has not been improved at all.
    Stale gameplay, unrealistic objectives, bad colision detection, driving... Its abysmal. The game is simply frustrating. Especially    First of all i really want to like this game.

    For fans of Road rash, save your money, this game is a bad attempt at a road rash tribute. I guess if you really want it, get it on steam, dev is still milking this cow with skin dlc's. Also at least you can use guns on pc with a mouse as it doesny feel like doing 10 things at once.    … Expand

    Un juego divertidísimo, para disfrutar solo o en compañía de un amigo. Buen sonido, buen apartado gráfico y buena jugabilidad.

    I was skeptical at first about this, after hearing how bad Road Rage was, I thought this was a follow up of that game, but I was wrong, and I'm glad I tried it for myself, Road Redemption Does bring back that nostalgia feeling of playing Road Rash, but it is a bit different, not sure if there was any bugs before the switch version, but the switch version looks well and plays well, veryI was skeptical at first about this, after hearing how bad Road Rage was, I thought this was a follow up of that game, but I was wrong, and I'm glad I tried it for myself, Road Redemption Does bring back that nostalgia feeling of playing Road Rash, but it is a bit different, not sure if there was any bugs before the switch version, but the switch version looks well and plays well, very addicting, not exactly like road rash but it's the closest thing to it and I love it, if you're on the fence about it, grab it, you wont be disappointed, if you're debating between Grip And Road Redemption, since they both released on the switch the same day, Grip is good but looks little gritty during gameplay but you will love Road Redemption, wish it had a physical release.… Expand

    It's actually quite damn good. Kind a clunky around the edges but more the enjoyable. Makes me go all the way back to amiga 500 era and the love of my life from that time: ROAD RUSH :D

    While I do enjoy the core gameplay and the possibility to play this via split-screen I just can't recommend this game on PS4 because it keeps crashing and destroying your save or getting stuck at the loading screen wasting hours of playtime. The technical condition this game is in years after its launch is unacceptable and a real shame because this could had been a decent game.

    Capitalizes on the nostalgia of road rash but is an extremely clumsy game to play. Terrible driving, horrendous physics, constant gangbang by enemies, a camera that wildly swings around, and blatant rubberbanding by the AI makes the game extremely frustrating. Boss battles are extremely infuriating due to the incompetent gameplay.

    A racing game full of action. It offers a campaign mode with a simple story but with very entertaining levels, as well as a good free mode. It is highly recommended if you are going to play with friends, because if you play alone you can end up getting tired.

    This racing-action game features its fair share of progression with a few RPG-like elements and manages itself quite well thanks to its random track generator and lifespan, which will lead to racing and action game fans coming back to it over and over again.

    Road Redemption isn't pretty, but it is fun. You'll likely have some good fun with this Mad Max-a-like, especially with a friend in tow.
