15 Best Racing Games for Android

Published

on

In this guide we’ve gathered a list of the best racing games for Android available in 2020. Fun games that’ll have you flying down winding roads, drag racing, drifting and using high-octane NOS boost to curb your need for speed. Racing games are some of the most popular mobile games because they’re fun, easy to play and have the best graphics.

We have ultra-realistic car racing, casual arcade fun, or even turbo-boosted watercraft. If you’re bored with battle royale games or stuck at home, try one of these racing apps. Our racing games are fun, some are free, and a few even work without WiFi. Download one from our list below.

These Android racing games will keep you busy for hours and on the edge of your seat. We’re starting with Asphalt 8: Airborne, as it’s still my favorite all-around game for Android. However, Asphalt 9: Legends is pretty amazing too. Here’s a quick list for those interested. Then, more details and download links are in the slideshow below.

Best Racing Games for Android in 2020

  • Asphalt 8: Airborne
  • Driver Speedboat Paradise
  • CSR Racing 2
  • Hot Wheels: Race Off
  • Beach Buggy Blitz
  • Extreme Car Driving Simulator
  • Traffic Racer
  • Real Racing 3
  • Furious 8: Drag Racing
  • Need for Speed: No Limits
  • GRID Autosport
  • Asphalt Extreme
  • Drag Racing
  • Red Bull Air Race 2
  • Horizon Chase

There are hundreds of games available from the Google Play Store, so finding the best ones is a challenge. And while some are decent, many of them are poor copies of others and not worth the time it’ll take to download. Instead of wasting your time, data, or money, download one of these 15 and we guarantee you’ll have fun.

In closing, these are some of the most visually stunning, exciting, best, or just outright fun high-octane racing games on Android. You might find an old game or two on the list, but that only means that they’re still great all these years later.

We also recommend buying a portable battery charger or power pack, that way you can keep playing without worrying about a dead phone battery. Then, stay tuned for more games throughout 2020.

Asphalt 8: Airborne (and Asphalt 9)

Asphalt 8: Airborne (and Asphalt 9)

Our first pick and still my favorite racing game to date is Asphalt 8: Airborne. And while the newer Asphalt 9 Legends is pretty amazing, I still love 8. 

Asphalt 8 is a little different from older Gameloft titles. It does away with all the simulator aspects and goes for high speeds and octane boosters. All while flying down realistic streets with natural lighting, lifelike shadows, and reflection. You get the best graphics, high speeds, and tons of cool tricks. 

Asphalt 8 delivers realistic crashes and extensive vehicle damage. You'll enjoy arcade and multiplayer modes, and the career mode is solid too. Build a reputation and become the best racer in town. 

You can also try Asphalt Overdrive, which is more of an endless racer. It isn't quite as fun, but still worth considering. 

Those with an older device that can't play Asphalt 8 or 9, download Asphalt Nitro. It's made for budget or low-end devices that can't handle the high-end graphics. Another good option is a game called City Racer.

    This list is silly… Most of the games listed are microtransaction tarpits of the worst kind, which doesn’t usually correlate with “best” or even fun. The fact that high-quality games like Need For Speed Most Wanted, Rush Rally, Bangers Unlimited 2 and Colin Mc Rae were left out just for being paid, boggles the mind (especially considering the price is 1/20th of the price you need to pay to actually finish a microtransaction tarpit game)

    Thanks for best list of Racing Games apps for Android.

    I haven’t used these apps that you have shared. Currently I’m using Real Racing 3 which is pretty cool , It has nice features such as 17 real-world locations , detailed car damage, fully functioning rear view mirrors, and dynamic reflections for truly HD racing. I’m happy with it but would definitely try these ones as well.

    Undeniably imagine that which you said. Your favourite justification seemed to be
    at the internet the simplest factor to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed even as other people consider
    concerns that they just don’t recognize about.

    You managed to hit the nail upon the top and defined out the whole thing without having side effect , people could take a signal.
    Will likely be back to get more. Thank you
