Can I Run Hot Wheels Unleashed On My Computer?
Hot Wheels Unleashed will be available to play on all the major consoles as well as Windows PC. Whilst not the most demanding game out there, the system requirements provided by the publisher are higher than you might think. You can see both the minimum and recommended system requirements below, and we advise to always add a little extra on top of these just to be on the safe side.
If you aren’t sure if your PC will run Hot Wheels Unleashed, check out our guide on how to look up your PC specifications to compare them against the stated requirements. If your current computer won’t quite cut it, check out the bottom of this page for some self-build and pre-built PCs that will run the game.

What Gaming PC Do We Recommend To Play Hot Wheels Unleashed?
To run Hot Wheels Unleashed on the low settings at 1080p, something as powerful as our $600 self-build will be required, and for those higher settings and resolutions, you’ll need a $1,000 build or above.
Despite the advantages in price/performance it brings, not everyone wants to put their own PC together, and so for those people, one of our pre-builds for under $800 will play the lowest settings at 1080p without a problem. For those higher graphical settings though you will need a machine that is at least as powerful as this $1,000 pre-built PC, possibly a $1,500 build if you’re planning on going 1440p or higher.
Gaming laptop reviewer, tech specialist, lifelong gamer, cantankerous wordsmith. A big fan of writing and laptops, Aaron is the in-house laptop and gaming laptop expert, dabbles in the world of tablets and keyboards, and also serves as a Senior Editor on the team, using his eye for detail to make sure our review content is up to scratch.
Summary
From halcyon days playing Sonic 2 on the Megadrive, to trying to work out how to make the 'TOASTY!' man appear on Mortal Kombat 3, many of Aaron’s fondest childhood memories are associated with gaming. He regrets nothing. First getting into PC gaming through exposure to Drug Lord 2.0 and then the original Half Life, he has been a fiend ever since.
The only thing Aaron loves more than history, gaming, laptops, and writing is finding a good deal, so look out for his laptop deals pages this year.
Experience
With jobs ranging from working the tills in a bookies to running administration at a political think tank in Westminster, plus a stint in investment management, Aaron has had a varied career. What has remained constant however has been his eagerness to learn new things, his ability to do in-depth research, his eye for detail, and his talent for editing (words and video). All of these skills he utilises in his job - making sure the consumer has the very best idea as to whether a laptop is worth their time and money, and working hard to ensure no detail is missed in his in-depth reviews.
