Play Overview
Burnout Paradise (2018) is the latest game in the Burnout series, an over-the-top racing game where you’re encouraged to crash, bash and ram other cars. Throughout the series the bravado and crashing increase, but they all have the same novel core gameplay.
The focus remains on the racing, but at the same time, you ram cars into each other to get them to crash into things. The result is like a combination of pool and karting.
From Burnout 2: Point of Impact onwards the game includes an over-the-top ‘Crash’ mode where you have to cause the biggest car crashes to earn points. Burnout Paradise (and Remastered) adds an open world to explore and destroy.
Our examiner, Chris Boers, first checked Burnout Paradise 4 years ago. It was re-examined by Ellen Robertson and updated 8 weeks ago.
