Cars 3 driven to win multiplayer
Flicking up on the right stick takes you onto two wheels, or you can flick the other way to drive backwards.
In addition to accelerating with ZR and drifting with A - the drifts take a little getting used to, but work nicely with practice - you have various driving tricks and stunts to consider. The game has a nice personality, then, and we've also been surprised at how interesting some of the mechanics are - your humble scribe is new to this series of games. The time it takes to go between the final checkpoints is far too long, to the point that the story is a miss. Some of these are unlocked through simple actions, others require a bit of time and grinding, and reaching a certain level of fame triggers these brief story segments and challenge events. It's extremely thin, with a small number of cutscenes and challenges interspersed among a lot of Hall of Fame 'Skill Checks'.
Now owned by Warner Bros., Avalanche Software has shown that it's a company with a good eye for what makes for an entertaining game, albeit while working within the constraints of the IP.Ĭars 3: Driven to Win does attempt to tap into the IP, with a story punctuated in the experience.
CARS 3 DRIVEN TO WIN MULTIPLAYER MOVIE
This latest arrival on Switch shouldn't be entirely written off as a sloppy movie tie-in, however, as Avalanche Software has put more effort into the project than that category would suggest it's a development studio that did Cars 2, but more tellingly Disney Infinity, a series of toys-to-life games that was ambitious but squeezed out of the market.
