Racing Games – Selection of TOP Games with a racing theme
Among the legends of racing games is undoubtedly the Need for Speed series
The racing game genre has a long history, bringing us realistic racing simulators, more arcade-style competitions with tuned cars, or races with jet fighters and space gliders. In today’s article, we will focus on racing games with four-wheeled vehicles, as they are currently the most elaborate and popular motorsport video game titles. Each of the games listed below also offers multiplayer options, so you can enjoy races online with more people. If you’re looking for a truly realistic experience, we recommend getting a steering wheel, pedals, and a gear stick. With a bit of skill and creativity around your gaming corner, you can really feel like you’re in the cockpit of a Formula car or behind the wheel of a souped-up Ferrari.
