We're absolutely on board with Hot Wheels Unleashed, which looks like good, clean, toy car racing fun. While the drifty, jumpy handling appears to be a blast, the environments surrounding the action will make or break some of the tracks. In this latest trailer, the game takes us to a college campus, where elaborate courses weave through desks, bookshelves, ceiling tiles, and hallways.
More than the garage or skyscraper locations shown previously, this one brings Micro Machines to mind. Seeing the small scale of all the cars racing through the campus is great. Hopefully we see more environments like this — visually interesting spaces that feel giant.
The game still has some way to go — it's not out on PlayStation 5 and PS4 until the end of September — but it's looking pretty promising. What do you think of Hot Wheels Unleashed's latest environment? Are you excited to play this? Fasten your seatbelts in the comments section below.

Most importantly - you can drive a tank
So, clearly the last bit was not actual gameplay, but it showed the cars driving across the table, between track parts. That should definitely be a thing.
Can we assume the hot dog car and hamburger car will be bitter rivals?
Liking the look of this game.
I don't see any bongs or ramen. Are they sure this is the college level?
I'm going to buy this. The question is when.
I want to like it more than I actually do - too often the backgrounds look disappointingly barren and colorless. And the track is all orange all the time? Gonna have to stick with MK8D and FH4.
