Today is the day! Our much-anticipated racing game Circuit Superstars releases today for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S and we can’t wait for drivers around the world to hit the track! The first motorsport title from Square Enix Ltd. and Original Fire Games, Circuit Superstars is a top-down competitive racing game with a charming edge, built by racing fans, for racing fans — like me!
The game celebrates generations of multi-disciplinary motorsport, focusing on tactile driving that feels really great — but with a high skill ceiling, so you won’t be the only one spending hours practicing the perfect racing lines. It is so satisfying to hook up the perfect lap!
With 12 vehicles and 19 different tracks and a range of customizable liveries for both your driver avatar and your cars plus helmets and victory celebrations to unlock by levelling up, there is endless fun to be had on the race track, whether you’re racing online or drumming up some sibling rivalry with some side-by-side couch co-op.
We might be biased but we think Circuit Superstars is unique in how it offers charming, relaxed gaming to some players, and a challenging, rewarding racing simulation to others, all in the same game.
There’s a racing style for everyone, with multiple motorsport disciplines represented in the game including Rallycross, Open wheel single-seaters, SuperTrucks, GT racing, Eurotrucks and many more — and plenty more free content to come in the future too!
And who better to help you perfect your racing lines and squeeze absolutely everything out of each lap? How about a certain Formula One star Mr. Lando Norris. IndyCar more your thing? Then perhaps you’ll prefer some tips from Romain Grosjean or Conor Daly. Or maybe you want to learn the to slide around corners like they do in Rally and the Extreme E Championship – paging Catie Munnings and Jamie Chadwick!
As part of a collaboration with BBC Studios and Top Gear, we invited a top-tier line up of 10 motorsport, esports, and YouTube stars to take on a special Circuit Superstars version of the Top Gear Test Track, in a unique take on the “Star in a Reasonably Fast Car” feature. After a tight battle, Lando snatched victory from Formula E driver Sam Bird in the very final moments, claiming victory of the inaugural edition of our (catchily-titled) Top Gear x Circuit Superstars Star in a Reasonably Fast Car Invitational – phew! Surely there is no higher honor for this future world champion!
Now it’s our turn to challenge you! As part of the launch of Circuit Superstars, The Top Gear Test Track is available now from launch as a DLC – and it’s totally free! In addition to the famous circuit, the DLC also includes a special Top Gear Time Attack feature, giving you the chance to take to the track (in a special Stig costume, no less) and perfect your racing lines against these racing greats including: our newly-crowned champion Lando Norris, Romain Grosjean, Jamie Chadwick, Sam Bird, Steve “SuperGT” Brown, Charlie Martin, Jimmy Broadbent, Catie Munnings, Aarava and Conor Daly.
Circuit Superstars is out today for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. Suit up, I’ll see you on track!
