Good top down arcade racing games are very hard to come by these days. After the decent but bland Mantis Burn Racing and the disappointing Micro Machines: World Series, the PS4 is wide open for a fun and lighthearted game to fill the void. The fast approaching Super Pixel Racers doesn't look to be doing anything particularly new, but it still looks like it could be worth a test drive.

The short trailer above shows off cutesy pixel art cars darting around various race tracks and drifting around bends like there's no tomorrow. Featuring local and online multiplayer, it could provide a lot of fun playing with friends, even if it looks a little simple. It's out on 31st October on PS4.
