Street Legal Racing: Redline Developer Invictus Game Series Street Legal Publisher Activision Platforms Windows Version July 18, 2003 Single-player, Multiplayer Genre Racing Modes (coming soon) Street Legal Racing Redline (also known as Street Legal 2) is a racing game developed by Invictus and published by Activision Value. The game was released for Windows in July 2003. The game takes place in Valo City (a pun on the word “speed”), a metropolis known for its vast underground world of illegal street racing. The plot of the game is to beat any club and meet the requirements to participate in the Race of Champions, a prestigious racing competition where you can win a super sports car. Players have to drive other people on the road during the day to get prestige (respect) or money to customize the car. During the night, players can either participate in a drag race against another driver or watch the race. A unique feature of the game is the detailed degree of customization of vehicles. The player can buy a completely new car at the dealership, a used car at a local store where they have already been adjusted or even summarized, or build the car from scratch with a chassis. Unlike a traditional street racing video game, the player has to replace each part manually, and these parts can be permanently lost if the car is damaged. Thanks to public funding, the game was given the green light and was finally re-released on Steam on May 7, 2016.
The Steam version is still unstable, but will be gradually improved by European game developer ImageCode in collaboration with Raxat. The latest Steam version of the game is 2.3.1, but the modder community has created their own more updated versions of the games that add and modify several features. All editions of the game are described in detail here The cars in the game look like their real-life counterparts, but are given fictitious names. For example: Mitsubishi is called Shimutsibu, Subaru is called Ishima, Chevrolet Camaro is called MC, Volkswagen is called Einvagen, Honda is called Duhen, BMW is called Baiern, Nissan is called Emer and Dodge is called Hauler`s. Depending on the version of the game, there are four winning cars: Prime DLH 700, Furrano GTS, PFAA Naxas Extreme Edition and the PFAA WhisperQ1000XL (you can choose only one of them randomly each time you go to the Race of Champions). Players can purchase cars from used car dealerships or new car dealerships. Initially, players only receive enough money to buy and repair a used car if it was cheap enough. The game also supports various modifications that can change the physics and graphics engine of the game and add new vehicles and parts to the game. In addition, players can modify any part of their vehicle with a dynamic garage system. Like cars, the parts are fictitious and are provided by the fictitious parts developer SL Tuners. In particular, the many engine components are highly modifiable, including the intake, exhaust, camshafts, crankshafts, engine blocks, intake manifolds, cylinder heads and turbochargers. Parts can be mixed and matched to create unique engines.
