Racing games are among the most popular video game genres. Whether you enjoy driving at top speeds, cruising in luxury sports cars or competing against your friends, car racing games appeal to a wide range of players. This week, we decided to look at some of the most classic racing games.
Need for Speed: Underground 2
Customisable cars, multiple racing modes, engaging story mode and a wicked soundtrack are some of the reasons why Underground 2 is considered by many one of the best games in the beloved franchise. Endless customisation, fantastic gameplay, incredible graphics and the introduction of the “Free Roam” make this a game to remember.
Burnout Paradise
Unlike most racing games, Burnout Paradise is set in an open-world which allows players to freely explore the game’s environment.

Officially licenced vehicles, real race tracks and an engaging career mode help to make this game a standout racing game. The game blends excellent gameplay and realism.
Asseto Corsa
Asseto Corsa could be classified as a racing simulator. The game attempts to realistically recreate car physics, real races and a driving experience truly unique compared to other car racing games. Add the wide range of modifications players can make to the cars and you have a truly immersive car racing simulator.
