Rock n' Roll Racing 2021
Rock n' Roll Racing is a vehicular combat-based racing video game released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1993 and the Mega Drive/Genesis in 1994. It was developed by Silicon & Synapse and published by Interplay Productions. The title derives from its prominent use of heavy metal and rock music in the soundtrack. A Game Boy Advance port followed after Silicon & Synapse rebranded into Blizzard Entertainment in 2003. In February 2021, to mark the company's 30th anniversary, a Definitive Edition was made available as part of the Blizzard Arcade Collection on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One. Originally titled RPMII, the game was conceived as a sequel to RPM Racing. Interplay marketing later added licensed tracks and renamed it Rock n' Roll Racing. Gameplay resembles that of Racing Destruction Set, using its logic/AI engine and drawing influence from Rare’s 1988 NES title R.C. Pro-Am.
