Game is fun but the netcode in this game is absolute dog shit, unplayable at times
Personally I would not recommend if your playing outside of multiplayer. For the most part the AI drives like any other AI in any other game minus the part where they have any disregard of other drivers when rounding corners. In my opinion the AI doesn't drive Agressive/reckless enough. Nor do they drive different lines, as they will all default to the same driving line. Which honestly makes playing with them the same as any other racing game. All I'm saying for a game about wrecking, the AI drive very safe, and don't provide a challenge for a player outside of I need a better a lap time. I would honestly love it, if in wreckfest 2 they make the AI combative, as that will add a new challenge, and make them more interesting to race against.
Wreckfest is a great arcade racing game, that is a bit like a simulator, with realistic collision physics.
The game has Career, Custom Event, and Tournament, which are single-player, where Tournament requires an internet connection, and Multiplayer where you can join one of the many private servers hosted by fans.
There is a large selection of cars to choose from, ranging from slow acceleration class C to fast acceleration class A. The cars can be configured in terms of Performance, Armor, and Visual. There is also Paint Shop and Tuning options for every car.
Wreckfest has Banger Racing and Demolition Derby as its two main game modes, and these two modes are repeated in both single-player and Multiplayer. They are fun, but can get a bit repetitive.
Overall, I recommend this game to anyone interested in an arcade racer that is straight to the point, since Wreckfest has neither an open world map nor a story.
It's one of those things, both love and hate it. Spent 2k hours across different platforms. Wreckfest has a changed engines and physics a few times. Been out for ten or so years and still got a hundred to a few hundred regulars playing online. Check the wfservertracker website for live servers, playercount and records for cars, tracks, and players.
Spent alot of time on xbox version (Can you imagine a lobby with 16 players all talking shit via voice chat instead of text like on pc? pc has 24 player limit unlike console's 16) And pc is so, so much better but with more trolls and questionable racers. Some really good folks that are willing to give tips and pointers though..
Lots of corner cutters, physics exploiters, and a handful of clear cheaters. The devs know about that, and have precautions to prevent or clear a lap time from making it onto the leaderboard. What to know how i know? I had many wr on xbox that got removed because i cut too far out of track? And yes im salty, because i have the pleasure of watching other people cut entire sections of map, but my time gets removed if i go out of track with one wheel ;'v) . OR i have to beat my time again, (hidden #1 because invisible corner cut) So i have to get a good lap time inside the track (invisible out of bounds markers) to post a time on the board and be shown, yet other racers can cut parts of track or wall ride and their times are fine and still posted. ;'v)
Dlc was great until they added cars that are not banger racing. Not to mention OP cars that literally dominate the leaderboards in every class. "But, but, just get good." I have had 15 concurrent wr on xbox in A-class prior to the release of new cars. "no u" Any smooth brain can press w with auto shift and be faster than 90 percent of competition with the three main cars. "Why don't you?" I'd play forza if i want to drive a damn corvette or japanese rally car. Raiden isn't a banger, Super venom isn't a banger, Hammerhead RS isn't a banger. No one is buying a new car with lights, glass, seats to race in these types of races this game was modeled after.. The joke stuff like harvester and toy cars. Stupid. Could have had so many cool cars but we get a breakable portable toilet. "Take my money hand over fist because "haha poop machine go brrrr" Did the devs forget their original vision? Did they forget where they started and took their ideas? The one pack of ornaments and one pack of tires was nice, but could have added more than that. Too much work for a nation that goes on vacation 2-4 months of the year and gets paid for it?
They changed textures and removed options after buying dlc. Dishonesty and shame at it's best. (Removed some japanese flag for some reason, Changed a paint job from "full re-t-a-rd" to "full send")
DON'T MAKE SOMETHING THEN SELL IT AND GO "OOPS CHANGED MY MIND!" "SORRY ABOUT OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE/ICON. SRY K THX 4 UR $ BYE" Pathetic.
All the servers with any amount of players are end user hosted. Like getting kicked from the only server with players because you're too fast? How about lobbies that bully everyone with endless /votekick. Or zero chat filter left to be moderated by the player hosted servers. When some servers are labeled "Poopsock" there ain't no savin you here son, it's all unfiltered just like my gallon jug of gamer fluids.
Not looking forward to pay to win cars and another garbage tournament mode that takes months of dailies to get some trash that will get readjusted because 1000000 credits is "too hard" to get. Lot of neat designs but then when you play enough there are a bunch of repeating textures, wheels, missing or broken things. Things that are fixable in thirty seconds in blender or whatever engine they use but still an issue, even when reported years and years later? They had many years to iron this out or expand. Dev troubles? Publisher troubles? Or just laziness? A bit of everything really, looking into the history of bugbear.
Save your money time, and sanity for Wreckfest 2. If you are new, it's not really worth it unless you want something different than what you've already played. Online is rough to start, but can be fun. Servers are either smash and crash or JUST racing. PICK ONE NOT BOTH.
Yes. it's been a tough ride. I miss the buildings on flat oval that were destructible with explosive barrels inside, or the one race where half go one way and half go the other way on large oval. The amount of damage the cars could obtain compared to now. i remember the forums complaining about the "console peasants" and the changes made to the game. I played this lovely garbage since 2014. "next car game", the original music still haunts me. I want to go back and listen after coming home from work and cracking the beer thats now outlawed in my city (haha yeah, outlaw a very specific beer because the homeless and their trash (spoiler; it didn't stop homeless they just changed to another)) I dont have 5 or even 10k hours like some terminally online folk have but this game was and is still fun.
Seems like more of a rant than a review, Eh. who cares. If i put "its ok" or " my partner will buy me 100 grains of sand if this post gets one snot rocket." it would get views.
I bought this game back when it was in early access, as NextCarGame (you can still see it on some of the game files lol) I think it was always a bit much for the PC I had, as it kinda ran like junk. As I upgraded the GPU it got better, but I never really cracked into it, as the load times kinda detracted from it a bit on top of performance issues stemming from an antiquated CPU.
Anyway, I finally upgrade my PC to something with a new CPU, and an m2 ssd. On a whim I think to give Wreckfest a try to see how it plays. Holy crap, this game is an absolute blast. The m2 drive drops load times to more than acceptable short bursts of a few seconds at track changes, and I have no frame drops, keeping a solid 60fps at 4k. The game is gorgeous, the damage modeling is awesome, and the feeling of just ramming into someone as you take a corner, causing them to wreck in spectacular manner and you speed off leaving a nice jam for the cars behind you? Absolutely baller.
I've not bought much of the DLC, but the daily tournaments demoing some of it sold me on at least one piece of it. The big VW bug with punk spikes all over it really did the selling, but I'd say grab that along with this.
Bottom Line: If you like a racing experience where you're not penalized, but encouraged to beat the snot out of your other racers, this is going to be right up your alley. Provided you have a solid enough PC to run it, SSD/m2 drives needed.
Genuinely a great racing game. I bought the game thinking it was about destroying other vehicles, but that is only a small port of it. A fun part, but still, it is about besting other drivers by any means. You can drive cleanly to win a race or you can drive like an SUV mom. The only things I don't like about the game is the lack of being able to create your own championship/series/league, no real career mode and the music. The music is dreadful after hearing the same few songs so many times. Really bad. Anyway, the game is good and there are plenty of custom things to download.
Great game, be weary the campaigns no longer work and the game is no longer developed. Mods are fun.
This is a good game but the problem is that whenever i try using a mod either the game crashes or it just doesnt work
Have you ever wanted to be in a demolition derby, but couldn't for some reason. That ends here. This game is beautifully made. It's got a great mix of destruction and racing. Not enough for you? Go to the Steam workshop and download some mods. This is Flatout, but waaaaaaayyyyyyy better!
Absolutely love this game! Even if you don't like racing games, Wreckfest is still worth playing because its not just a racing game, its a demolition derby game. The graphics are pretty good and the game does a good job with the damage physics. However, I had some trouble getting the game to work properly on my PC and found that other people were having similar problems. I ended up having to play the game in a smaller windowed screen just to get the game to play at a decent frame rate. Overall, still a really great game, can't wait for Wreckfest 2!
Fantastic game. This is one of those games you can wreck out in and still come back to win. By the last lap most of the track is destroyed and littered with the burning wreckage of your opponents. Great game for those looking to have fun, knock into one another, and get pretty goofy at times.
POS game. Awful handling, worse looking cars and frustrating AI. They give you shitty cars with barely any upgrades and ask you to outperform while being slammed on all sides. This game is a joke.
Good with mods though. 5 hours in and I fucking despise this game w/ out mods.
Brilliant Game, always great smashing into other cars and having mind numbing fun
it's good game but i wish they can add more different race tracks and off road tracks and use construction equiptment to wreak on here like payloader cement trucks dump trucks dozers and even farm equiptment to it
"Wreckfest" is a unique racing game that stands out in the crowded world of car simulators and arcade racers. Developed by Bugbear Entertainment and released by THQ Nordic, the game marries destruction, physics-based crashes, and strategic racing in ways that many games have attempted but few have achieved. It is, in essence, a chaotic yet deeply satisfying combination of racing, smashing, and tactical vehicle handling that offers players an exhilarating experience every time they fire it up.
The Evolution of Destruction: From Early Access to a Fully Fledged Game
"Wreckfest" had a long developmental journey, starting its life in early access in 2014. What’s fascinating about this title is the level of refinement it achieved through community feedback and iterative improvements during this period. Initially known as "Next Car Game," Bugbear Entertainment embraced player input, fine-tuning almost every aspect of the game – from car physics to the overall gameplay experience – to deliver what we have today.
By the time it officially launched in 2018, "Wreckfest" had blossomed into something truly special. Over the years, it has only gotten better, with constant updates, new features, downloadable content (DLC), and fresh game modes being added. This dedication to quality has solidified its place as a fan-favorite, especially among players who love the thrill of smashing cars while maintaining a competitive racing edge.
Gameplay – The Perfect Marriage of Strategy and Chaos
"Wreckfest" excels by offering a wide variety of events and gameplay modes, making sure that the fun never gets stale. At its core, the game is about demolition racing. But what sets it apart from your typical arcade racer is its blend of tactical driving and wanton destruction.
Destruction Derby Mode – The standout mode that many players gravitate towards is the destruction derby. Here, the objective isn’t just about finishing first; it’s about surviving, often at the expense of your opponents. Cars are thrown into massive arenas or confined spaces, and the result is pure automotive carnage. From light taps to full-on head-on collisions, the damage model is beautifully detailed. Cars get bent, twisted, and broken in real-time, with debris littering the track as each round progresses. The thrill of smashing into another vehicle and watching it crumple never gets old.
Racing Mode – However, for players who prefer the thrill of speed with a side of chaos, the traditional racing modes offer plenty of excitement. Unlike other racing games where the goal is to have a clean run to the finish line, in "Wreckfest," even a standard race can turn into a demolition derby. It’s not uncommon to see the first lap dominated by sleek, pristine vehicles, only to have the final lap filled with smoking, battered wrecks barely making it to the finish line. The fact that you must balance the desire for speed with the need for survival adds a deep layer of strategy that most racing games lack.
Career Mode – The game’s single-player career mode offers plenty of longevity and variety. As you progress through different levels, you’ll face a range of challenges, from traditional races to more destructive events. The career mode does an excellent job of mixing things up, keeping players engaged by frequently switching up objectives, vehicles, and tracks. Along the way, you earn experience points and in-game currency to upgrade and customize your cars.
Challenge Events – One of the most fun aspects of "Wreckfest" is the plethora of challenge events. These quirky, hilarious, and often over-the-top events let you race or smash up unconventional vehicles like riding lawn mowers, school buses, and even combine harvesters. It’s in these moments that the game fully embraces its chaotic identity, letting players experience something different and break away from the standard fare of racing.
Multiplayer – Multiplayer is where "Wreckfest" really shines for many players. With dedicated servers and a large, active community, it’s easy to hop into a match and compete against others in everything from destruction derbies to traditional racing modes. The multiplayer chaos adds a whole new layer of unpredictability as human players tend to be far more aggressive and unpredictable than AI opponents. The game's superb netcode ensures that even the most hectic battles feel smooth and responsive, with very little lag affecting the overall experience.
Vehicle Physics and Damage Modeling: Where "Wreckfest" Excels
One of the game’s crowning achievements is its physics engine, which offers some of the most satisfying and realistic vehicle handling in any racing game. Bugbear has always been known for crafting excellent physics-based destruction (as seen in the "FlatOut" series), but "Wreckfest" takes it to the next level.
Every collision, crash, and fender-bender feels unique thanks to the game's soft-body damage modeling. Instead of vehicles just losing a few parts or showing cosmetic dents, crashes result in dynamic, real-time damage that impacts how your car performs. Damage to your car’s engine, suspension, and wheels all affect handling, so if you take a hard hit to the front, your car might pull to one side, or you could lose power altogether.
This damage modeling forces players to adopt a more thoughtful approach to racing. You can’t just barrel into other cars and hope to survive, especially in longer races. You must plan your attacks, choose your lines carefully, and manage the state of your vehicle. This blend of strategy and destruction is where "Wreckfest" truly shines – it’s more than just a mindless smash-em-up game; it’s a thoughtful, calculated experience.
Visuals and Track Design: Destruction in Beautiful Detail
From a visual standpoint, "Wreckfest" looks fantastic. While it might not have the ultra-realistic sheen of games like "Forza" or "Gran Turismo," its attention to detail in the way cars crumple, bend, and deform is unmatched. The damage model is visceral, and every piece of twisted metal or shattered glass feels impactful.
The track designs are another high point. Whether you're racing through traditional dirt tracks, figure-eight arenas, or creatively designed courses littered with obstacles, the game’s environments are dynamic and detailed. Every track feels handcrafted, with plenty of room for both high-speed races and chaotic crashes. Some tracks are narrow, forcing tight, aggressive competition, while others are wide-open playgrounds that encourage wild crashes and destruction. The mixture of surfaces—dirt, gravel, tarmac, and mud—also adds layers of challenge, making each race feel distinct.
Customization and Upgrades: Make It Your Own
"Wreckfest" offers an extensive car customization and upgrade system. Players can modify their vehicles not only for aesthetic purposes but also for performance. There’s a wide variety of cars to choose from, ranging from classic muscle cars to heavy-duty trucks, and each vehicle can be tweaked to suit your playstyle. Whether you want a car that’s built for speed or one that’s more durable for surviving the chaos of a demolition derby, the options are there.
The upgrade system allows players to fine-tune their vehicles with new engines, better armor, improved handling, and more. Every choice you make impacts how your car performs on the track, so the customization isn’t just cosmetic—it’s integral to success.
Sound Design and Music: Adding to the Mayhem
The sound design in "Wreckfest" is excellent, enhancing the visceral feel of each crash and collision. The roar of engines, the crunch of metal, and the shriek of tires on tarmac are all captured perfectly. When cars collide, you feel it through the sound, adding another layer of immersion to the experience.
fantastic game great phys great vibe game really needs ability to change soundtrack as the one playing dont match the games vibe at all lol , the mod scene has massive potetnial for funny comical an entertaining mods an tracks i personally believe bugbear should add the ragdoll throwing events back in from flatout they are fun asf well worth addding in the code for it so yea games got MASSIVE potential to be a great rn its about 6/10 but could be 10/10 easy lacks many car mods atm an tracks but im sure if people find out its not as bad as it was in 2018 theyll try the game again its def alot better optimzed now needs a lil more realistic driving phys tho but its basically almost perfect blend of arcade an realistic
This is a great game, especially for the price, as I picked this up during a STEAM sale and it included all the DLC's.
Rating
3/10
Intro
This was disheartening to type, but Bugbear had a good run. They made FlatOut 1, 2, Ultimate Carnage and Ridge Racer: Unbounded. But this just isn't it for me. My advice to the developers, would be to make a true successor to FlatOut 2 and not worry too much about reinventing the wheel. Because you tried doing that with this, and forgot the fun aspect. As for you buyers, I'd say skip this and download Dirt: Showdown instead.
Positives
+ Good soundtrack.
+ Steam Workshop support.
+ Great aesthetics and graphics.
Negatives
- No nitro boost. Combined with the boat-like handling, it makes the driving even more sluggish and near-impossible to catch up.
- Slamming into vehicles isn't satisfying. There's no satisfying hit sound effect or flashy pop-up text indicating the amount of damage and action you did, like in Dirt: Showdown.
- Driving assist and difficulty selection feel out of place in a Bugbear title. Had they just focused on one good arcade handling model and balanced difficulty (like in their previous racing titles), that would've been fine.
- Some events that serve no purpose other than to annoy. Whether it's tiny figure-eight race tracks or lawn mower destruction derby. Which would've been fine if they were free-play exclusive, but you have to play them to progress in the career mode.
Nothing beats wrecking virtual cars with your friends while hitting a tree at 200 mph.
Great fun and quite hard if you like it that way :)
Wreckfest is a fantastic racing game that mixes intense demolition derby action with realistic driving. The crashes are satisfying, and the physics make every race feel exciting. The variety of vehicles and tracks keeps things fresh, and the multiplayer mode adds even more fun.
I’m currently trying to get all the achievements, which is a fun challenge! Overall, Wreckfest is a great choice for anyone who loves racing and destruction. Highly recommended!
Game is missing the 'Souls-Like' tag on Steam.
Trying to finish a multiplayer game either in time or without getting wrecked by a bus is beautifully challenging.
Wreckfest is a blast! Tons of fun in both single-player and multiplayer. Loads of cars, upgrades, paint designs, decal templates, tracks, and game modes. It's really fun! I can't wait for the sequel.
Pure padel-to-the-metal chaos! Every crash feels like it's straight out of an old-school grindhouse flick. It's not just about the speed; it’s about the beautifully destructive art of smashing metal. I’m telling you, it's got that raw, gritty energy that makes you wanna grab a bucket of popcorn and watch the mayhem unfold!
Most games are pretty simple. You jump on enemies, you die, you have to insert another quarter to continue. Wreckfest changed that.
It's great! Looks great and the destruction is very fun. Good progression through the career mode too!
Multiplayer doesn't work without port forwarding (something I do not have access to.) Better not give money to a developer team that doesn't seem to bother fixing their own game.
Had fun playing it. The physics are good. The multiplayer can be fun
Late to the party, but it is that great it's an actual Video Game. Most games I've been playing while fantastic are stiff in the sense they forget you're trying to escape the world you live in if even just for a moment.
For example they offer realistic physics and graphics, but they remember to let you drive a lawnmower and a sofa. I've always wanted to race on my sofa and become the ultimate couch potato racer.

Endless Fun with friends. Been playing since its release and the fun never gets old.
MODS baybeeeeee
also it's a really good game i love bugbear
I had playing this on Xbox for a long time before I realized I was only playing a fraction of the game. I like it even more now that I have access to tournaments and many more multi-player options including voting on tracks and messaging.
Wreckfest is the perfect game for anyone who’s ever sat in traffic and thought, “You know what would make this better? If I just rammed into everyone around me.” It’s not just a racing game; it’s a beautiful symphony of twisted metal, shattered dreams, and the glorious realization that yes, you really are a terrible driver.
From the moment you start, it’s clear that the goal isn’t to win races—oh no, that would be too simple. The real goal is to make sure every other car on the track regrets ever existing. You’ll spend more time turning your opponents into scrap metal than you will actually driving, but isn’t that what racing is all about? Who needs first place when you can be first in vehicular homicide?
The physics in this game are nothing short of miraculous. You’ll watch in awe as your car cartwheels through the air like a drunken ballerina after hitting a bump the size of a pebble. And let’s not forget the joy of slamming into a pileup at full speed, only to have your car bounce off like it's made of rubber. Truly, this is the most realistic driving experience since Mario Kart.
The customization options are incredible too—if you’ve ever wanted to spend hours upgrading a car just to have it disintegrate in the first 10 seconds of a race, then you’re in for a treat. You can fine-tune every detail of your vehicle, but at the end of the day, it won’t save you from that one guy who treats every race like it’s a demolition derby (hint: it’s you).
And then there’s the AI, which is about as friendly as a pack of rabid wolves with driver’s licenses. They don’t race to win; they race to make sure you lose. But hey, that’s just part of the charm. In Wreckfest, winning isn’t about crossing the finish line—it’s about making sure everyone else crawls across it.
In conclusion, Wreckfest is the only game that lets you live out your fantasy of turning every race into a twisted metal cage match. It’s chaotic, violent, and often makes no sense—but that’s exactly what makes it beautiful. If you’re looking for a racing game that cares more about destruction than driving, then buckle up and prepare for the ride of your life. Or, you know, at least the ride until your car spontaneously explodes for the third time.
Very well optimised, It was running on my integrated graphics (Intel UHD 630 in a 9th gen I7), Able to run 20 cars + damage, hundreds of physics items and much more at about 20fps. Managed to get it to use my GPU instead (Nvidia GTX 1660Ti (laptop one)) and its running smoothly.
Best racer on the market. Brings that old school xbox feel online. Tons of great community run servers from clean racing, to absolute anarchy. Easy 10/10.
One of the best games to enjoy with friends. You can really get some nice moments when you crash. There have been many times we all have laugh attacks.
Wreckfest
My favorite racing simulator, the spiritual successor to Flatout from the same developers, which might lag behind Forza Horizon in some aspects but overall has its own advantages.
The FuckFest servers, where you're met head-on by seven battle buses at once, where the world's top Wreckfest players compete, and where it can take up to half an hour just to join a server, constantly refreshing the server list to get in and play — it's a lot of fun.
It's even more fun if you have a big group of friends, just as goofy as you, to dive into the game together.

By the way, the soundtrack (which my pretentious hipster friend called "dad rock") is actually pretty good. I even added a few tracks to my Spotify playlist — solid stuff.
Shoutout to DarkWay, who happily uninstalled the game, hoping to never end up in a ditch in his wrecked car again. I'm really looking forward to the recently announced Wreckfest 2 so I can completely wreck him there.
Good physics, good destruction, good racing, good game. Can't wait for Wreckfest 2.
Tired of driving nice? Want more chaos? Feel like racing without actually racing? Then wreckfest is perfect for you! The game where ramming into your opponents with a semi truck is somehow legal
Good game with good physics. Would be nice if it had commentary though.
When you miss games like Destruction Derby from the old PS1 days this game is great. As an "older" gamer myself I'm really enjoying it!
If you are a causal player, do not bother with this one.
- Crashing doesn't feel satisfying at all
- Grindfest from the very start of the game
- No real sense of progression
- You make one tiny mistake in your driving, and you lose the race (even on the easiest dificulty)
- No rewind option.
I regret buying this.
great for messing around with friends and just having fun
Wreckfest is hands down the BEST racing game I have ever played.
Whether you use your keyboard, a controller, or a direct drive racing wheel like I do, you can be competitive.
Steam modders have added a ton of great content for Wreckfest.
The online racing is awesome and the people who play this game are (mostly) the best.
Can't wait for Wreckfest 2
I ahve played many hours in this game and have run over MANY lawnmowers that is the only fun part because the rest of the time i get pit manuvered into the DNF screen. I bought a steering for the game to be better just to notice that I just sucked.
10/10 would get pit maneuvered again!
As someone that grew up playing flatout 2 this game left me feeling like I was 12 again Its like flatout 2 but with better gameplay, better graphics, more cars and overall better, although I haven't played much the time i have spent in the game was pure blast just like a portal back to 2006 it actually make me feel like 12 again.
10/10
SORRY BUGBEAR
Used to work ok but recently went back to it and it failed to load every time. menu loads but when going to the track it freezes with a fatal error message box. tried different graphic settings no joy, but I have done over 12 hrs on before without a problem. do they make updates kill the games as a way of getting us to buy more games??????

Never been a huge fan of these kind of racing games... But something about this one really makes me wanna bust open a cold one over my infant son's head and pull DUI screamers down a back road with my life on the line, all for the chance to just win more beer money.
Loved this game, kinda hard to get used to, but after a lot of time it gets easier. I use a wheel and its insanely fun! I recommend to people who like to be a little destructive and like to have fun. 8.4/10
Tis a good Game, no Question about it. But the main thing it comes down to in the end for me: It is not more entertaining than Flatout 2/UC was. They maintained the mechanics of Crasher doesn't take damage and Crashee does, like in Flatout. But in Flatout it was just so much more satisfying to Pitmaneuver the Opponent, have them planking infront of your Bonnet, Nitro-Boost like a madman and smashing the Bastards into the Rails, absorbing all the Damage because they were in between you and the wall. Loved how that worked in Flatout. In my opinion, this Game needs to be a little bit less Realistic and a bit more Silly, just a tiny little bit. It needs to be more Flatoutish
This game is fun and has its moments but the AI on the easiest difficulty is damn near impossible to do the challenges/get 1st, you start at the end of every race and the AI track you down but never whos in 1st.
