Here’s a rundown on the game, via its official website:


RETURN TO PARADISE CITY

In 2008, the original Burnout Paradise™ came roaring off the starting line ready to demolish the competition. Featuring breakneck racing, high-flying stunts, and — most importantly — shameless amounts of automotive destruction, Burnout Paradise set the bar for what an action racing game could be. And now, ten years later, it’s back and ready to show a new generation of consoles the true definition of a “smash hit.”

Key Features:

  • The Definitive Burnout Paradise Experience
  • Relive the high-octane stunts and wanton destruction of one of the greatest arcade-driving games ever. Featuring a range of technical enhancements for greater visual fidelity and authenticity, it plays natively in 1080p on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and in 4K at 60fps on the PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X.
  • Explore Paradise City with Friends
  • Burn rubber and shred metal across the open roads of Paradise City while discovering jumps, stunts, and shortcuts. Wreck your friends online or join forces to demolish hundreds of online challenges.
  • RACE AND DESTROY
    Toss out that driver’s handbook and set speed and destruction records all over town.
  • UP TO EIGHT PLAYERS
    Smash through traffic with friends in both online and offline multiplayer and compete for destruction dominance.
  • 4K GRAPHICS*
    Take in all the magnificent mayhem on PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X with 60 fps in stunning 4K.
  • FULL-THROTTLE GRAPHICS
    We’ve given Burnout Paradise a complete graphics overhaul, with high-resolution textures and a range of technical enhancements designed to deliver all the high-octane chaos with an almost irresponsible level of visual fidelity.
