About Living World Racing

From the archive

This is the original PS2Home fact sheet for Living World Racing, preserved from the early-2000s archive. Details reflect the PAL release as catalogued at the time.

Official fact sheet

The flying HMS Boat transports our cool pets to Living World, a wonderfully lustrous utopian heaven of green grass, shrubs, flowers, trees, animal homes, mini towns as well as special levels with a fun fair or a ski resort! The annual Living World Challenge Cup Race is due to start and all the contestants are fully geared up to race around the track and take the coveted Cup home.

The characters individually race in powerful fan propelled hover boats and can reach lightening fast speeds under turbo boost, whizzing around tracks, collecting the various speed-ups and nutritional snack points along the way. The levels in each lavishly designed environment get progressively harder with devious combinations of tight corners, steep hills, ramps, narrow bridges, dangerous cliff edges and whirling tornados. Not to mention coping with the visual delights of sometimes navigating through torrential rain or snow blizzards.

You can play as nice or as nasty as you like, blasting your competitors in a frenzy of carrot missiles or laying explosive traps with pumpkin bombs. There is a huge amount of gameplay in both single-player and multi-player modes, with practice races in both day and night modes, a time trial mode, various difficulty settings, weather conditions and the 3 championship cups to win for each difficulty setting!
