Bugbear has unleashed Wreckfest 2 upon the gaming world, promising enhanced physics and more realistic crashes. However, the game falls short in terms of content, offering only a limited selection of races and customization options. While the game features eight tracks across four locations, some are recycled from its predecessor, leaving long-time fans with a sense of deja vu. Custom races provide a slight reprieve, offering more variety and settings to spice up the gameplay.
One of the game's highlights is the car handling, which perfectly captures the essence of controlling junky vehicles on the track. The weight and damage of the cars are reflected in their handling, adding a layer of challenge and excitement to the races. Realistic crashes and destruction further enhance the gameplay experience, with cars gradually deteriorating during intense races. The PC performance has seen improvements, with options for resolution and graphics presets to tailor the experience to your liking.
Multiplayer, however, leaves something to be desired, with matchmaking issues and server stability problems hindering the overall experience. Despite its current shortcomings, Bugbear has promised future updates to bring more content to Wreckfest 2, including new cars and tracks in the coming months. At its current price point of $29.99, the game may not offer much bang for your buck, but it shows potential for growth and improvement in the future.
