Sep 24, 2018It’s a fun loving game that is colourful and a great way to get the kiddies involved with racing their favourite characters.
-
Jul 18, 2017As far as racing games for kids go, Cars 3: Driven to Win is surprisingly good. It looks good, handles well and has enough content to keep you and your young 'uns entertained for a long time.
-
Jul 12, 2017This is a surprisingly solid racing game, with a lot of content and very enjoyable, although the lack of online modes and the not very original weapons are obvious shortcomings.
-
Jun 21, 2017Overall, Cars 3: Driven to Win is a surprising treat. It has beautiful visuals mixed in with impressive gameplay design underneath the hood. It’s not going to replace your Mario Karts of the world, but it certainly will keep you entertained, especially if you have young gamers in the household.
-
Jun 20, 2017If you're looking for a new kart racer to add to your collection, you can't go wrong with Cars 3: Driven to Win. Its cute and colourful style is charming and it has a great selection of content to keep you busy for hours.
-
Jul 18, 2017The bar of expectation was not set particularly high for Cars 3: Driven to Win, yet by focusing on the right things and not patronising its intended audience, the game is a surprisingly enjoyable racer that's a pleasure to handle.
-
Jul 12, 2017Cars 3 is arguably the best videogame of the franchise and one of the most remakarble Disney Games of the last years. A solid racing game with its own ideas and a good presentation overall. The gameplay is fun and is able to convince both adults and children. Some issues with the frame rate remain, though.
-
Jul 10, 2017A good enough Mario Kart clone with the Pixar touch. Not awesome or amazing in any area, but fun and very playable.
-
Jul 5, 2017Cars 3: Driven to Win is a surprisingly refreshing racing game. While it does come with a few speed bumps here and there, the novel approach to Cars 3’s tie-in game is simply high-octane fun.
-
Jul 11, 2017Cars 3: Road to Win is a fun game to play with our children, using a Mario Kart style control, but simplifying it rightly. A good amount of hours of play to unlock all its contents make the purchase worthwhile if you have children fans of the Pixar film.
-
Playstation Official Magazine UKFeb 8, 2018Quality split-screen titles that bridge generation gaps are few and far between. Cars 3 achieves this, but it’s a bit of a tough sell for solo-only players. [September 2017, p75]
-
Jul 15, 2017Cars 3 Driven to Win is a good arcade racer which ties in with the movie. There is more than enough to do, but you'll miss just as much. The Battle Arena is gone and there is a lot of distraction on the tracks. It's a fun game, but no more than that.
-
Jul 12, 2017It's not usual that a licensed game is as good and full of content and enjoyable as well even with several hours played. Cars 3 could have taken some more risks, offering online multiplayer and balanced gameplay mechanics to feel more fair. But it won't disappoint the young ones at home.
-
Jul 12, 2017Cars 3 is - like the movie it's based on - a lot of fun. Unfortunately, the game isn't exactly impressive in the technical department. Weak graphics and a lack of online features keep Cars 3 from reaching the lofty heights it should have aimed for.
-
Jun 21, 2017Aside from the introduction, the only story found in the game is one told through a couple of cutscenes interspersed between some races.
-
Sep 27, 2017Like its predecessor, Cars 3 is a decent tie-in that shouldn't have any trouble entertaining a younger audience, although it's a little hard to suggest the purchase to more expert gamers.
-
Jul 24, 2017Cars 3: Driven to Win is a fun and eclectic racer, and one that boasts plenty of content that’ll keep fans of the films happy for many hours, especially younger gamers who may well overlook some of the flaws. It’s a shame then that the game’s poor performance, lack of polish and often unfair difficulty level make it that much harder to recommend to anyone else.
-
Jul 24, 2017Despite nailing the Pixar look and offering loads of content, Cars 3: Driven to Win heads off-track because of its unforgiving difficulty.
-
Jul 21, 2017When all is said and done, Cars 3: Driven to Win is a decent arcade racer that fans will enjoy. The racing is good fun once you get a handle on it, and we can see kids having a great time with the family in its four-player split screen. It’s difficult to recommend it to anyone else, however. While there are plenty of ways to play, there lacks a certain depth that will keep you entertained for more than a few hours. Having said that, the PS4 is sorely lacking in arcade racing titles, so this may be worth a look if you're in the market for some bright and breezy driving – and can stand the repetitive voice lines.
