The expert delivery begins with the handling. Where it matters most, Bugbear Entertainment and THQ Nordic have delivered. From its game modes to its handling and its racing mechanics, Wreckfest delivers a racing experience to rival anything on the Switch to date. Wreckfest on the Nintendo Switch is an absolute banger. There are moments of calm in amongst the madness.įear no more. It’s been quite the wait though for Switch fans to get the chance to play the spiritual successor to FlatOut and Destruction Derby, and it was feared that the wait was representative of the difficulties in getting Wreckfest to run on Switch hardware.

With the PC version sat at a favourable 81 on Metacritic, it’s no wonder it subsequently released on both Xbox and PlayStation. Wreckfest spent four years in early access and arrived to fanfare from wannabe racers around the world. If I ever manage to finish it, I'll probably share it here.When Wreckfest first released on PC in June of 2018, it was the end of an extensive and turbulent development period. But I do have a big dumb spreadsheet of the Wreckfest cars and a bunch of statistics, and that includes a great many hours trying to nail down the real-life versions of the cars as specifically as possible. Also you have a fleetside Chevy C10 rather than the stepside bed for the Little Thrasher.Įdit 2: Just to clarify, I don't mean to criticize. The Sweeper ('72 Ford Granada) is visibly different in the rear but I'm not sure if that's a year-model difference, or maybe trim package or something. Edit: It's the Ringbrothers' Javelin Defiant, notice the double-cowled hood and side-exit exhaust, similar to options available for the Rebelrat.įurthermore, your pictures for the El Matador ( '76 El Camino) and Gatecrasher ( '74 Monte Carlo) depict slightly different year models ('70 El Camino, '67-'72 Monte Carlo) and body styles than what we have in-game. The Rebelrat ('71 Javelin) is based at least partially on some modern custom version of a Javelin that some shop built with its own nickname, but I don't remember what that is. It does have by far the best 350 SBC noise though, Bugbear please adapt this to everything that could/should have a monster Chevy small-block. Or you could consider it a Satellite in the front and Charger in the rear, similar to how the Raven has an Oldsmobile grille in the front, but a Buick hood and rear.Īlso, while the Speedbird is vaguely reminiscent of a '67-'68 Firebird, ultimately it is completely fictional, no major part of it is consistent with any real-life car. Also, I see the Bullet as a 1970 Plymouth Sport Satellite, as the front is much more similar and the rear is still close enough given that basically all the cars are fictionalized to some degree. I see the Rammer as an '82 Oldsmobile Cutlass rather than the Chevy model, as the taillights more closely match (if you Google it, note that 2-door versions of the Cutlass had a different rear). I do note a couple cars that aren't quite correct, at least in my opinion. I may have just missed some of these in the video, but I don't remember seeing the Hammerhead, Hearse, Stepvan, or Speedemon (though you technically covered the Supra with the Pocket Rocket).
