Have you always dreamed of being in Korben Dallas's shoes as he shakes off the police in the labyrinthine sprawl of New York in 2215? Well, that dream is now a reality: climb behind the wheel of the famous taxi and take part in a breathless 500 km/h race set in the New York of the Fifth Element.
You are catapulted into heart-stopping aerial races, from the city's seediest slums to the top of the most luxurious skyscrapers. Get behind the wheel of high-speed cars and flying machines and experience the thrill of 3D racing on 12 spectacular urban 'circuits' from 4 different districts. You will discover numerous obstacles, both fixed or moving that you must be sure to miss by a hair's breadth to avoid spectacular crashes!
3-dimensional action allows you complete freedom of movement on a vertical axis as well as horizontally using a new and unique gaming dynamic. New York Race gives your imagination free rein.
There are more than 25 high-tech flying machines to choose from, of three different sorts, including the famous taxi and the police car. Whatever category, each car has its own features: speed, acceleration, braking, vertical and horizontal manoeuvrability, weight.
In every race, you can pick up 4 bonus points which give you an added advantage: to slow up an opponent, to damage the nearest opponent's vehicle, to protect against collisions and to boost.
