Micro Machines World Series is an arcade game developed by Codemasters and released in 2017. It is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Linux, Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows). It runs on Unity.
The premise, in the publisher's words
Micro Machines World Series will retain the manic social game play of the classic series, but will bring a new dimension to the experience with stunning HD visuals – taking you to the much-loved household environments as they’ve never been seen before. As well as bringing to you the classic game modes like Race and Elimination, Micro Machines World Series will introduce a new style of game play to the series: Battle Mode. The all-new Battle Arenas will allow you to wreak mass destruction on a miniature scale against your friends or the AI. Meanwhile, Team Play lets you work together using your vehicles’ unique skills with modes such as ‘King of the Hill’ or ‘Capture the Flag’!
How it plays
It is played from a bird view / isometric perspective. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. Available modes: Multiplayer and Single player. There are 44 achievements to unlock.
How it was received
Micro Machines World Series holds a critic score of 54 out of 100. That places it above 13% of the 2,164 rated arcade games in our database, which average 70. Games released in 2017 averaged 71, so it scored 17 points below the year average.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for AMD FX Series or Intel Core i3 Series, 4 GB RAM and AMD HD5570 or NVIDIA GT440 with 1GB of VRAM (DirectX 11 graphics card required). At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 5GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Micro Machines World Series launched on 20 June 2017, within three weeks of Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, Diablo III: Eternal Collection, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy and Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 4 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, Diablo III: Eternal Collection, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age.
