Wreckfest 2 is a racing game from the Finnish studio Bugbear which continues the legacy of the FlatOut series (and also the "first game" from 2018). The developer started this series in 2004, but after the release of FlatOut: Ultimate Carnage it was removed from further work, so after that the studio started creating similar games under a new banner.

Gameplay

Just like the first installment, Wreckfest 2 is a racing game from the "simcade" category, meaning it combines accessible entertainment with a relatively high level of realism in physics simulation. The latter includes both a driving model, the mastery of which requires some skill, and an extensive (and spectacular) vehicle destruction system.
