## What is Riptide GP?

Experience the future of illicit hydrojet racing, where armored riders kick out death-defying stunts over massive waterfalls, dodge cops through public waterways, and boost at breakneck speeds across surging waves.

You are a hydrojet rider, framed and cast out from the Riptide GP league, forced to race illegally through city waterways, flooded ruins, and churning factory machinery in an effort to reclaim your reputation and your title.  Play through the single player career to unlock new vehicles, playable characters, and customization features as you take down bosses and build your crew.  

Then, take your skills online for the ultimate test as you battle opponents around the world in 8-player online matches.  Challenge your friends for leaderboard supremacy in the ghost-racing challenge mode.

### 5/5 — I love this game!

*2025-12-07, version 2023.10.06*

It’s just amazing you accelerate a lot if you have max level speed and at least the time I played it, the game doesn’t have bugs! It’s sad to know that the Arcade Edition is going to be delisted, but it’s pretty good!

### 5/5 — this game..

*2025-11-15, version 2023.10.06*

### 3/5 — But Nintendo 64 Had

*2025-09-07, version 2023.10.06*

This game is great! But I deeply love Extreme G from Nintendo 64. 

Can we get that. 

And also Donkey Kong Racing. 

You race on land, water and take flight before the finish line. 

That’s it man. 
That’s the truth. 
That’s what we want brotha. 

😂

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-09-04*

This game is so awesome. It never runs out of thrills. If you have enough skill, you can make it to different race courses. This game is challenging, but fun and there are no commercials. I’m not kidding no commercials. You should play this game, but it requires a lot of skill and you have to play it a lot to get very good. Such a good game.

O my goodness every single time I race pyta and fryta these 2 policemen camp towards me and push me off ramps and slow me down and before you know it you lose by 10 seconds I am abt to crash out

### 5/5 — Very good

*2025-04-09*

The game is good but what if you got to make your own jet with your own parts that you pick then you can pick your name and character in carrier. And also the bots are to easy so make them better and make more jets. But over all this is a good game
