This is the return to Carmageddon that we've been waiting for. It re-imagines all of the gory and violent things we love about this franchise in a fantastic way. Truly fun to play.

To its credit Stainless has recognised the scale of the problem and has assured players than it is working to get the game in a stable condition as soon as possible. Until a decent performance can be assured for all, however, or until it's recalled back into Early Access, we have to advise caution.

Carmageddon: Reincarnation is a tired and clunky reboot of a better game suited for a different time.

Not the revival Carmageddon veterans will have been hoping for, and far too glitchy and unrefined to draw in more casual fans of vehicular violence.

Overall Carmageddon: Reincarnation fails in almost every way to be an enjoyable revisit to arcade style racing mixed with running over pedestrians. The game is a hassle to start, not optimized, and no fun whatsoever.
