Racing games are progressively becoming more realistic. With fully licensed vehicle lineups and a great deal of vehicle customization, the genre has gone a long way since early racers like Pole Position<\/em>.\u00a0Recently, racing games are have been divided into racing simulators and arcade racers.<\/p>\n

Racing simulators have the potential to immerse players into an experience closest to the real drive. On the other hand, there are arcade-like games that sacrifice realism for fun. Each racing game has a place in the gaming world, even if some are considered better. Here are some of the top picks from both subgenres.<\/p>\n

10 <\/span>Gran Turismo Sport (Racing Simulator)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Gran Turismo<\/em>\u00a0is a renowned series of racing games that are considered simulators.\u00a0Gran Turismo Sport<\/a><\/em>\u00a0is one of the most realistic simulators to date, despite its shortcomings. The game could’ve stood out with more tracks and cars to choose from. Also, most of the game is online-only, which is a dealbreaker for some players. Looking past its flaws, Gran Turismo Sport<\/em> is an excellent racing game, one of the best on PlayStation 4.<\/a><\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Dirt 5 (Arcade Racer)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

When it comes to arcade racers, the\u00a0Dirt<\/em><\/a>\u00a0franchise is one of the hottest on the block. The latest entry in the series,\u00a0Dirt 5<\/em>, is an arcade racer, unlike the\u00a0Dirt Rally<\/em>\u00a0spin-off series. The controls could’ve been more compatible with steering wheels and pedals peripherals. At the same time, Dirt 5<\/em> offers an abundance of career mode content to keep players immersed.<\/p>\n

This game was released on next-gen consoles like PlayStation 5,<\/a> Xbox Series X,<\/a> and Xbox Series S. It wasn’t the bump-up in graphics we hoped for, yet Dirt 5<\/em> does impress at times from a visual perspective.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Dirt Rally 2.0 (Racing Simulator)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

For those looking for a more realistic simulation experience, the Dirt Rally<\/em> spin-off series is a top choice. The second game in the series, Dirt Rally 2.0,<\/em> came back dirtier than ever before.\u00a0Dirt Rally 2.0<\/em> pushes surface degradation, meaning that as cars drive on top of a surface, it becomes harder to drive over. The gameplay is truly impressive.<\/a> It wouldn’t be a stretch to say\u00a0Dirt Rally 2.0<\/em>\u00a0the best racing simulator ever.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Need For Speed: Most Wanted\u00a0(Arcade Racer)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Available on iOS and Android, this game shook mobile gaming. When Need for Speed: Most Wanted<\/em><\/a> was released, it was the hottest racing game around. The level of customization was similar to the\u00a0Need For Speed: Underground<\/em> series,<\/a> but the gameplay was a significant step-up.<\/p>\n

Need for Speed: Most Wanted<\/em> is an arcade racer, meaning that the game’s developers had the freedom to make the game how they wanted. Had it been a simulator, Need for Speed: Most Wanted<\/em> may have had been less appealing.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>F1 2019 (Racing Simulator)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

From Codemasters, the development company behind the Dirt<\/em> racing series, comes F1 2019.<\/em> It’s one of the most realistic racing simulators on the planet.<\/a> This ambitious entry comes with official F1 teams, drivers, as well as circuits. This is the type of game that practically demands to be played with a steering wheel peripheral. Artificial intelligence (AI) players can be challenging, yet the reward for out-maneuvering other racers makes it worthwhile.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Project Gotham Racing 4 (Arcade Racer)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Before the franchise ended and was succeeded by its spiritual successor,\u00a0Project Gotham Racing<\/em><\/a>\u00a0was the go-to Xbox racing game. It was viewed as the leading arcade racing game until the\u00a0Forza<\/em>\u00a0franchise kickstarted.<\/a><\/p>\n

P<\/em>roject Gotham Racing 4\u00a0<\/em>was the last Xbox 360<\/a> that came from the franchise. Even by today’s standards, Project Gotham Racing 4<\/em> is a spectacular burnout game. It’s not backward compatible, so you’ll need an Xbox 360 to join the fun.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>Project Cars 2 (Racing Simulator)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

For the first time, jumping into Project Cars 2<\/em><\/a> is an eye-opener. Without the turning aids of an arcade racer, there is a significant learning curve behind the game. Project Cars 2<\/em> is one of the most realistic racing simulators to date. It’s also the best-selling racing game from developer Slightly Mad Studios. Play around with different vehicles,<\/a> and you’ll likely find one that fits your racing style.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Burnout Paradise Remastered (Arcade Racer)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

As a series recognized for its over-the-top car crashes,\u00a0Burnout<\/em>\u00a0shifted its genre’s dynamics in a way never seen before. A valid argument could be made, suggesting that\u00a0Burnout 3: Takedown<\/em>\u00a0is the best\u00a0Burnout<\/em>\u00a0game. Since\u00a0Burnout Paradise Remastered<\/em><\/a>\u00a0is available on current generation consoles, it is more accessible and has more polished graphics.<\/a> Regardless of which Burnout<\/em> game takes you down memory lane, you can’t go wrong with any of these classic games.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>Assetto Corsa (Racing Simulator)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Even for adept drivers,\u00a0Assetto Corsa<\/em> is a\u00a0demanding racing game. This racing simulator was released way back in 2014, but it can be downloaded for a bargain on the Steam Store.<\/a> The game was way ahead of its time when it launched because of its advanced racing simulator mechanics.<\/a> Today we view\u00a0Assetto Corsa<\/em> as a sophisticated\u00a0simulator\u00a0with physics comparable to\u00a0only a few other games.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>Forza Horizon 4\u00a0(Arcade Racer)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

When it comes to arcade racing games, Forza Horizon\u00a04<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>is in a class of its own.\u00a0This open-world game is one of the best showcases of high-dynamic-range imaging. It brings an unparalleled experience for new or\u00a0seasoned racers. It’s by no means realistic, but the arcade-style of racing works on so many levels. If you only play one arcade racer this year, this game\u00a0is a\u00a0top choice. Forza Horizon 4<\/em> is available on PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S and Series X.<\/a><\/p>\n
