About the Game

Synthwave Burnout VR is an explosive arcade racing game in VR, inspired by the aesthetics of the ’80s and synthwave style. Strap on your headset, rev your engine, and blaze through neon-soaked tracks where every move, turn, and crash feels like you’re in the heart of a glowing retro-futuristic storm.

Style
In VR, the neon-soaked aesthetics of the ’80s feel more vivid than ever. Dark tracks, pulsating horizons, flickering stars, and hypnotic lights surround you from all sides. Every flash, reflection, and shadow comes to life in immersive virtual reality. A powerful electronic soundtrack and rich spatial audio complete the experience, pulling you deeper into the retro-futuristic world.

Gameplay
Take control of 6 unique vehicles using your VR controllers — steer the wheel, hit the gas, dodge obstacles, and smash into rivals. Each of the 6 levels offers fresh sensations, visual tricks, and unique challenges. Swerve, evade, and ram with real physical movement and full concentration. Don’t just watch the race — become part of it.
