Defunct Games reviews Neon Apex: Beyond the Limit, available now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Switch and PC.
If what you’re looking for is a racing game with a lot of modes, then let me introduce you to Neon Apex: Beyond the Limit from Repixel8. Featuring a lengthy career mode, an intriguing story mode, a championship league, time attack mode and even a one-on-one fighting game mode, there’s definitely a lot to do in this futuristic racing game. Unfortunately, the gameplay is a little loose and the early parts of the game are extremely frustrating, thanks to cheap computer opponents and style that can be overbearing at times. Couple that with repetitive stages that all blur together after a while and events that are no fun at all (like the hand-to-hand combat), and what you’re left with is a racing game that aspires to stuff wipEout, F-Zero and Extreme-G into one game, but never finds its own identity.
