Turbo Sliders Unlimited is a spiritual successor to many classic top-down racing games, but in 3D and with modern online features and extensive customization and modding possibilities. It goes far beyond being just a racing game — it is a community-driven platform where anyone can create their own levels, vehicles, and game modes. It can be played as a serious esports game, as a fun casual game, or as a sandbox game. It can be played alone or as a multiplayer game, both locally and online.
The game has a massive number of game modes and tuning possibilities, with new ones still possibly coming. Different game modes include various forms of racing, sumo, tag, soccer, capture-the-flag, collector, and weapon battle.
