Earlier this month, an Xbox Store listing revealed a new Hot Wheels game was on the way. It's apparently coming to Microsoft's platform on 29th September under the name of Hot Wheels Unleashed.
A new teaser from the official Hot Wheels Twitter account tagging the official Nintendo one seemingly confirms this game is also on the way to the Switch. There's a Hot Wheels countdown teaser website up and it appears to share the same graphic as the previously leaked image (see above).
According to the listing (via Pure Xbox), the game is developed by Milestone (the team that worked on Ride) and will feature both online and offline multiplayer as well as a course creator. Here's part of an archived description:
"Unleash your creativity with the most exciting track editor ever! Build your track by taking advantage of what surrounds you, and create amazing layouts inside and outside the race course. Bend and stretch the iconic 'orange piece,' add loops, special boosters, obstacles and special elements to make an incredible amusement park for your races."

Course creator sounds promising.. Been a long time since I played with Hot Wheels, time will tell if this will be any good
When's this Forza Horizon 3 DLC coming to Switch, now? 🤪 It just makes me think of the Hot Wheels expansion on Forza.
I thought the Hot Wheels expansion would be dumb on Forza, but it was good. So, I'm cautiously interested. If it's only muscle cars like in that advert above, they've got an uphill battle me already. Hopefully there are some euro sports cars, super cars, Le Mans, F1.
I have a Hot Wheels game on my Wii and it legitimately scarred me for life as a kid.
Well I take it.
Ugh Hot Wheels are the reason car crashes exist, just like how games are responsible for violence (Now before I send this I would like to clarify that it is a joke so I don't get beaten)
by looking at it. It looks fun but l don't think it will be. Usually the case with these racing games and also the reviews always turn out ok.
I'm greedy for speed and neutral means nothing to me.
What about a new Banjo Kazooie game?
I remember having a hot wheels game for my PS2 was actually a really good game
@Why_Do_I_Exist what was scary about it? Makes me want to check it out haha. I love a good racing game, and hot wheels levels can be fun. I’ll probably give it a shot.
A new Hot Wheels game by the same guys that made Ride, I wonder how that game went.
(looks at Ride game review)
Oof.
Granted it's only been five years but still....oof.
Guessing this won't have anything to do with AcceleRacers sadly.
Genuinely, I wouldn't mind playing a Hot Wheels themed game. I have World Race on GameCube and enjoyed that game more than I expected. As long as its fun, I wouldn't mind.
This is coming from someone who didn't even play with the toys much as a kid.
Yes please. I'll take it.
Please be better than the last micro machines game !
Looks sweet. Love the realistic look of the toy cars. Is this the first Hot Wheels game that actually looks like you are racing toys?
@Mr_Persona just so you know the game is awesome. I have it and I am addicted to it. It is my favorite car game including rocket League
@Sunsy it is fun
