Technology

Wreckreation is an "arcade" open-world racing game focusing on destruction. It was developed by Three Fields Entertainment, a studio best known for Dangerous Driving, whose founders previously co-created the Burnout series. The publisher is THQ Nordic.

Gameplay

The action takes place in MixWorld - an open map of 400 square kilometers, which features a variety of biomes and attractions prepared for exploration and frantic racing. At the same time, the world is susceptible to modification - players can affect the weather or traffic, as well as add their own objects (like ramps or moving obstacles), creating twisted routes, and then share their creations with other users. It also features empty plots that, once discovered, can be developed, such as erecting a police station to see more police cars on the roads.

The races are of an arcade nature, with speed, stunts and smashing counting. There is also no shortage of other activities, such as smashing various types of billboards. Importantly, players can organize challenges with their own rules and invite others to play together over the network or compete for the best results in the rankings.

The vehicles available in Wreckreation are also subject to personalization, among which there is a great variety - there are sports models, muscle cars, vans and even excavators. They can be changed, among other things, body or window paint, rims, tires, engine sounds and even brake lights. The cars featured in the game are not licensed.

Game modes

Although Wreckreation offers plenty of network features for multiplayer play, you can also play solo.

Technology

Wreckreation was developed using Unreal Engine technology. The game also features diverse music, broken down into sixteen radio stations. While playing, you can also listen to songs played from your own Spotify Premium account.

XboxEra: 8 / 10 by Győző Baki

The game’s presentation doesn’t quite do it any favours. Unimpressive graphics, odd visual design choices, floaty handling, physics and destruction that are legitimately worse than the old school Burnout games it’s trying to replicate. It also has its share of glitches with weird collisions, the framerate tanking temporarily at times and so forth. However, not only you get used to this, but the game just keeps improving. The open world keeps getting filled up, Live Mix keeps things fresh, and the possibilities of its online sandbox are practically limitless.

Gamer Social Club: 6.5 / 10 by Sean "KingOTheCask" Richards

Is Wreckreation one of the better racing games of recent release? I honestly couldn’t tell you. Will it appeal to an avid fan of the genre? I’m certain it will. The one important question, though, is this – did I have fun? I did. But will I remember my time with the game in six months? Probably not.

IGN: 5 / 10 by Luke Reilly

Overflowing with ambition but ultimately plain and with no style to call its own, Wreckreation feels like a supermarket brand homage to a series of better arcade racers.
