Description
Racing cars clash on natural and urban circuits in this Ubisoft Dreamcast racing game. Published by Ubisoft, released in the United States in October 1999. Car racing with varied circuits in natural and urban landscapes, realistic cars and settings, solo and multiplayer modes. American version.
Speed Devils USA is one of the most sought-after Dreamcast racers on the American market, and its notably high valuation reflects genuine scarcity of complete NTSC-U copies. An Ubi Soft launch-window title, praised for its betting system and humour, it never received a stateside reissue. Pressure comes from collectors closing out the Dreamcast racing library, a segment where this entry ranks among the toughest to finish sealed.
Is Speed Devils still worth playing in 2026?
A cocky arcade racer, Speed Devils bets on tracks that morph in real time, fickle weather and tornadoes included, with a wagering system that pushes you to take risks. The sense of speed and the staging still hold up well, and it was a technical showcase of the launch lineup. The textures sting and the aggressive AI can frustrate, but the fun-racer spirit stays contagious. An underrated arcade racer that is a real pleasure to rediscover today.
