Slot Car VR promises nostalgic racing on Quest today

Slot Car VR is a mixed reality track building and toy car racing game now available on the Meta Horizon Store.

The concept of Slot Car VR will be familiar to anyone who remembers childhood days building and racing the classic slot car toys called Scalextric (Hot Wheels or Micro Machines in North America). In Slot Car VR, this nostalgic pastime is brought back to life by allowing players to compete against slot cars on custom-made race tracks in mixed reality. Here is the new trailer from the UploadVR Winter Showcase.

The game features full hand tracking, multiplayer (both online and co-located), car customization, and tons of track components, terrain, and props to build truly wild custom tracks. A drag-and-drop building system and intuitive interface allow players to build freely in all areas of the game, either alone or with a partner.

Players can upload their custom-created tracks, submit their best times to global leaderboards, and compete on other slot car racers’ tracks.

Slot Car VR is playable on Quest 3, Quest 3S, Quest 2 and Quest Pro. It is available now on the Meta Horizon Store for a limited introductory price of $9.99. The price will increase to $14.99 in January 2025.
