Crash Tag Team Racing in Stores

Crash Tag Team Racing, the newest addition to the best-selling video game franchise, developed by Radical Entertainment, creators of The Simpsons: Hit & Run, has shipped to retail stores, Vivendi Universal Games announced. Crash Tag Team promises to give players a unique racing experience and allow them to continue the adventure on foot with out-of-car action. For the first time ever in a racing game, players will be able to fuse two cars together on the fly to form a super vehicle with the all-new "clashing" technology. In Crash Tag Team Racing, players can combine their car with an opponent¡'s mid-race to make a super-car equipped with a powerful turret gun. When clashed, players can either get behind the wheel and drive or fire an onboard weapon. Each character has his or her own uniquely deadly 360 rotating turret. Players can continue the action out of the car where they can explore the entire world on foot and collect upgrades for their cars and unlock bonus tracks.
