Games ≫ Race NYC

New York never sleeps. Neither do its highways.

THE MIDNIGHT LOOP
A 14 km night loop around Manhattan with four lanes each way: the East River Drive under the bridges, the Midtown Viaduct and its Neon Mile of glowing billboards, the Hudson Skyway high over the river, and down into the Battery Tunnel. Wet asphalt mirrors the skyline, the street lamps and the neon as you fly past.

A REAL RACE COCKPIT
Sit in a GT race car with bucket seats, a roll cage and a racing wheel that turns with your steering. Speed, gear, nitro and score sit on the dash screens, with live rear-view mirrors, so the windscreen stays clear.

TRAFFIC, NEAR MISSES AND NITRO
Taxis, sedans, vans, trucks and city buses fill the lanes. Pass them with under a metre to spare for NEAR MISS points and chain them up to x10. Near misses fill your nitro - hold A to fire it. Honk the horn and the car ahead moves over.

POLICE AND SPEED TRAPS
Blast past a patrol car and it gives chase with lights and siren - every near miss scores double until you lose it. Gantries along the loop are speed traps that keep your records.

THE NIGHT LADDER
A career of 10 events and 30 stars: sprints, races against three rival crews, rush-hour runs and checkpoint dashes, some in the rain. Win them all to become King of New York. Or jump straight into a Quick Race, a Near Miss Rush, or a Free Ride with no clock at all.

RAIN AND RADIO
Race dry or in the rain with the wipers going, to the Race NYC theme on Midnight FM radio.
