Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged review

System: Switch
Release date: October 19, 2023
Developer: Milestone
Publisher: Milestone


Developer Milestone knows racing games. You may not be familiar with their name, but you’ve definitely at least seen one of their titles before. From the SBK Superbike series of the 00s, through to the thoroughly enjoyable Ride games of the 2010s, Milestone are as synonymous with tires on asphalt as they are with hot dinners. Despite this, 2019’s Hot Wheels Unleashed ultimately ended up a slightly messy affair – plenty of content, but the core experience was lacking in refinement. Fast forward to 2023, and Milestone is back with Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged – an unwieldy name, but is it an equally unwieldy sequel?

Original (5/31): Milestone made it official today that it’s developing Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged, and it’ll be launching on Switch later this year. The announcement follows previous leaks surrounding the game.

Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged will include motorbikes and ATVs, new locations, new game modes, improvements such as the ability to create a party with friends, a story-driven career mode starring four original characters, and more. We have a bunch of details below.

Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 Fast & Furious

Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged has announced a new collaboration that will see Fast & Furious entering the racer.

At launch, players will be able to drive the unstoppable Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody. This was driven by Dominic Toretto in the Fast & Furious franchise. Additional vehicles from the series will be added post-launch as paid downloadable content.

Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 preview

2021’s Hot Wheels Unleashed was a huge surprise for fans of arcade racers and the die-cast toys alike; I had a great time with it when I reviewed it, even if I felt the game could have benefitted from tweaked vehicle handling and more variety overall. Now, two years later, developer Milestone is gearing up for the release of Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged on October 19, and I had an opportunity to check out an early build of the game at Summer Game Fest. While some of my critiques of the first game – like environmental variety – look like they may not be resolved at launch, I enjoyed some of the new mechanics and modes the team is adding this time around.
