A sequel to the arcade racing game, in which the players are driving vehicles in order to create spectacular crashes and gain as many points as possible. Danger Zone 2 features eight cars that can be wrecked on American, British, and Spanish highways.
Danger Zone 2 is the second entry in the series of arcade car games developed by an independent studio Three Fields Entertainments. The studio was created by the founders of the famous Criterion Games, Alex Ward and Fiona Sperry.
Mechanics
The gameplay in Danger Zone 2 is focused on creating spectacular crashes. The players are awarded cash for doing this. They can also share their results on online scoreboards. The developers provided eight vehicles. Among them, there is a tractor, a sedan, an exotic supercar, and a racing car. Contrary to the first entry in the series in which the action took place in a special testing zone, in Danger Zone 2 the crashes are created on American, British, and Spain highways. The players are trying to wreck the greatest havoc possible on twenty-three “black points” located in seventeen locations.
Technical aspects
Similarly to previous games developed by Three Fields Entertainment, Danger Zone 2 is powered by Unreal Engine 4. The game also uses advanced physics of three-dimensional objects. The console versions of the game are taking advantage of the capabilities of Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 Pro.

By expanding on the explode-'em-up gameplay we know and love, Danger Zone 2 makes some nifty improvements to the formula. The new locations and more vivid art style vastly improve the game's looks, while the extended run ups add a little extra challenge to the levels. Performance can be a little choppy and vehicle handling lands on the wrong side of generous, but overall, the game still delivers on its promise of a Crash mode experience.

Danger Zone 2 attempts to bring back the crashing thrills of the Burnout franchise, but unfortunately falls prey to presentation issues and a lack of overall content. It's still a fun time for the couple of hours you have with the game, but there are much better arcade racing titles from which to choose.
Destructoid: 5.5 / 10 by Peter Glagowski
Danger Zone 2 has all the groundwork set to make an explosive comeback for Burnout, but Three Fields Entertainment just needs to up its quality control. Also, how do we still not have Kenny Loggins on the soundtrack?!
