Evaluation

Fireburst is an arcade racing game that launched on April 25, 2012. The store description presents a fully featured package — 16 vehicles, 16 characters, 12 single-player maps, 5 multiplayer maps, multiple game modes, and a complete set of fire-based abilities — with no mention of upcoming content, DLC, expansions, or post-launch updates. There are no DLC listings on the store, no developer news posts, and no roadmap of any kind. The game was released as a finished, self-contained product, and there is no evidence that exDream or Strategy First ever planned or delivered additional content beyond the base game.

About this game

<p>Blast opponents off the road with Fireburst, an explosively fun fast-paced arcade style racing game with fantastic graphics. Rev up to scorching speeds to outrun opponents on a dozen different tracks, setting them ablaze in your flaming wake thanks to our exclusive Fireboost technology. Drive as sixteen sarcastic drivers with unique styles and taunts, using various explosive, fire-based special abilities to turn other cars into a pyre of parts. Leave opponents sucking on your smoldering dust in single-player mode, local four-player mode or the insane, firetastic online eight-player mode. Grab the wheel and burn some rubber.</p>
<h2>Key Features:</h2>
