3D Multiplayer Boat Racing Game
Wake Riot
Wake Riot sends your friends lapping tropical island circuits in colourful speedboats, from pink dawns to moonlit nights with glowing wakes. Race in 3D, ride a rival's wake for boost, leave a rubber-duck surprise for whoever is behind you, and survive whatever the sea throws up.
How do you play Wake Riot?
Finish your laps first. The inside of every bend is shorter, ramps and wake surfing recharge your boost, and rocks, logs, whirlpools, rogue waves and boat collisions can wreck your line. In Wild mode a kraken, waterspouts, meteor showers and a giant rubber duck join in.
- Choose a boat colour and a speedboat or duck-captain look. Both have identical handling.
- Pick a course (Palm Lagoon, Riot Rapids or Moonlight Reef), 2, 3 or 5 laps, a time of day, and Wild or Classic weirdness.
- Hug the inside of the bends, collect yellow duck crates, press E to drop a trap, and celebrate at the flag before the rematch.
Make it a good team break.
Start with three laps of Palm Lagoon to learn the racing line, then try Moonlight Reef at night. Up to eight people can race, and bots can fill empty seats. Phones auto-accelerate and provide touch steering, brake, boost and duck controls.
Before you choose: This is an arcade boat race with wave buoyancy, momentum and collisions. After the first boat takes the flag, the rest of the field has 25 seconds to finish; unfinished boats receive DNF. The online race continues when one player opens their menu.
