Reviews

The action is fast, the controls are responsive, and there’s a huge amount of content to get through – especially considering the reasonable price point. If you’ve already exhausted the Switch’s premium retro racers then Slipstream is well worth a runaround.

Perhaps the biggest problem is that it never really manages to escape being one big reference and become its own thing. Even with that in mind, arcade racing fans likely won’t regret picking it up.
