Burnout Paradise Remastered is a refreshed and extended edition of Burnout Paradise – a title developed by Criterion Games and released in 2008. Burnout Paradise Remastered was created by Stellar Entertainment. Apart from the base version of this racing game, the package contains 8 DLCs, including Big Surf Island, Cagney, Boost Specials, Burnout Paradise Party, Cops and Robbers Pack, Toys, Legendary Cars and Burnout Bikes.

Mechanics

Burnout Paradise Remastered takes the player for a journey to the fictional Paradise City, and thanks to one of the aforementioned DLCs, the Big Surf Island. The player takes part in dynamic races and insane challenges - while engaging in the latter, one can win through crossing the finish line on the first position, by neutralizing the opponents (performing the so-called "Takedowns") or simply through causing fear among the other road users. An advanced damage system is the game's distinctive feature, as crashing cars is very spectacular here; at any time, the player can activate the Showtime mode in order to cause as much destruction as possible and make the most of the said damage system.

Destructoid: 8 / 10 by Chris Carter

Burnout Paradise Remastered isn't really worth grabbing if you already have the original. Hell, said original is even backward compatible on the Xbox One right now. Without any prior experience though I would absolutely give Paradise City a spin -- even with its faults, it's still one of the most memorable and mild open worlds in existence.

Game Revolution: 3.5 / 5 by Mack Ashworth

Ultimately, Burnout Paradise Remastered on Switch is a solid racing experience that offers a unique take on the arcade racer, where the player is encouraged to take down the opposition by any means necessary. There’s plenty of content to keep players busy for tens of hours in solo play, and a substantial online experience to master.

TrueAchievements: 4 / 5 by Andrew Ogley

Despite showing its age in occasional places, the purity and simplicity of Burnout's arcade racing is as refreshing now as it was when the title was first released.
