I really liked Midnight Club back on the PS2. Would be cool to find similar for the Deck.

Any racing games that the community finds good on the Deck? Is it arcadey or realistic in the mechanics?

I've got quite a lot of racing games - though I tend to only use the Steam Deck for the 3rd person arcade-like fun ones. I prefer realistic sims on a wheel & pedals setup.

Anyway, there's probably some repeats on here, but these are all ones I have played on Steam Deck and felt worked well.

  • RXC - Rally Cross Challenge (top down 3d Rally cross, arcadey but with semi-realistic handling)
  • Horizon Chase Turbo (90s style rear-view arcade racer. Think "Outrun" or "Lotus Elite Turbo Challenge" etc)
  • Art of Rally (already mentioned)
  • Wreckfest (already mentioned)
  • Descenders (downhill BMX bike racing)
  • Rush Rally 3 (rear view 3d semi-realistic arcadey rally)
  • Rush Rally Origins (3d top down semi-realistic arcadey rally)
