FlatOut 2 makes destruction part of the race rather than a side effect. Cars barrel through breakable trackside objects, while heavy crashes can send a driver flying through the windscreen in a rag-doll display. The game’s enhanced physics engine and faster track designs frame its racing as a contest where collisions add to the spectacle with every lap.
Its driving is built around a sizeable vehicle and track selection, with 45 vehicles and 57 track combinations. Career mode is described as more sophisticated than in the original, and the game also includes 12 rag-doll mini-games that shift the focus from conventional racing to launching drivers into challenges. Multiple race environments broaden the setting for the track action, while the destructible scenery and deformable car parts give impacts a prominent role in the game’s identity.
FlatOut 2 supports single-player as well as multiplayer, including online PvP and LAN PvP; its description specifically mentions racing online with up to seven friends.
