About this game

Kinetica is an arcade-style racing game built around the extreme capabilities of Kinetic Suits, scientifically advanced exoskeletons that fuse with their users. These suits provide exceptional speed, agility, and technology for adhering to a variety of surfaces.

Its tracks feature multiple-line corners and alternative crossover pathways, creating opportunities for competitive racing and route selection. Opponents use adaptive artificial intelligence that adjusts their driving throughout each race, while drafting, strategically timed boosts, and Siphon Boosts add further tactical depth.
