Ridge Racer Unbounded is a racing video game for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Part of the long-running Ridge Racer franchise, the game is published by Namco Bandai Games and developed by Bugbear Entertainment. Unbounded is the first game in the series (not including R: Racing Evolution) to receive a "Teen" rating by the ESRB. It is also the first game in the series to feature a Microsoft Windows version.
Ridge Racer Unbounded will offer a number of changes from the traditional Ridge Racer game. Announced additions to the game include the ability to design and share tracks and a new emphasis on crashing into opponents or through the environment to find shortcuts.
While Ridge Racer Unbounded was originally scheduled for release in North America and Europe in early March 2012, [1] Namco announced a delay just before the planned release, stating that they wanted to allow more time "to pack the disc with features that will truly make the game sing." [2] The game was released on March 27, 2012 in North America and March 30, 2012 in Europe on all platforms. The Japanese release was delayed for unknown reasons, although some rumors said this was affected by continuous typhoons in Japan.
Ridge Racer Unbounded received mixed reviews, where Edge Magazine gave it a 9/10, calling it "one of the most subversive, sublime street-racing games ever made" [3], while others criticized the car physics, track design and gameplay balancing. The included track editor was generally well-received, with the Official Xbox Magazine UK saying "The problem is that such a brilliant editor just makes you wish it resided in a better racing game" [4]. The PC version currently has a Metacritic rating of 72/100 [5] while the PS3 version has 75/100 [6] and the Xbox 360 version 70/100 [7].
