Overview

Barrel Race 3000X is an open-world racing adventure where the adventure comes from questionable engineering. In every region, the roads are there for industry, not racing. Obstacles don’t just pose a hazard; they’re part of the race.

Work through the ranks of rivals, opportunists, and questionable personalities by competing in high-speed races and tackling obscure challenges. Exploration is rewarded with special items, power-ups, and cool gear. Winning isn’t everything in this game. Bragging about it is.
