SpyHunter reboots Midway's franchise in 3D. A transforming car, race-and-mission mix and budget James Bond vibe. Flawed but pleasant for fans of the arcade original.

Is Spyhunter still worth playing in 2026?

A reboot of the arcade classic by Midway, SpyHunter has you drive the Interceptor, a spy car bristling with weapons that can transform into a bike, a boat or an off road vehicle, in action missions blending racing and shooting. The mix of snappy pursuit, James Bond style gadgets and the Peter Gunn theme give it an exhilarating retro flair. The sometimes stiff handling and a high difficulty weigh. A racing action game to recommend for fans of armed driving and spy film spirit.
