Playing a cop, jumping from hood to hood mid pursuit, the whole thing is as ridiculous as it is wildly satisfying. Bigbig Studios delivers arcade action with real panache; a shame it stayed confined to Korea.

Description
Special forces officer aboard vehicles at full speed, the player neutralises criminal gangs by leaping from car to car. Published by Sony Computer Entertainment, released in Europe in September 2005. Five gangs to neutralise, acrobatic vehicle-to-vehicle transfers, pursuit and on-foot missions. Multilingual version.
Leaping from a car at full speed to land on the criminals' vehicle: this Sony action game cultivates a gleeful excess worthy of an action movie. Its steep difficulty and slightly dated presentation cooled its reception. But its nerve and spectacular chases will thrill fans of unrestrained arcade action.
Is Pursuit Force still worth playing in 2026?
An action racing game from Sony, Pursuit Force has you play a stuntman cop who leaps from vehicle to vehicle at full speed to neutralise five criminal gangs in frantic chases. The original concept of jumping between moving cars, the blend of driving and shooting and the frantic pace make a snappy, spectacular experience, designed for handheld. The difficulty stays high. For a fan of arcade action or someone curious about the PSP's original concepts, the title keeps an infectious energy and a strong identity.
