Fast & Furious Arcade Edition lands on consoles October 24

Raw Thrills and GameMill announced a home port of Fast & Furious Arcade Edition. The game is the fifth arcade title in the film tied series, first released in 2022. The home version arrives on PS5, Xbox Series X S and Nintendo Switch on October 24 and includes both single player and split screen multiplayer.

The home port preserves many arcade hall features, including a roster of iconic cars, color customization, destructible environments, branching tracks and risky shortcuts. It supports solo play or two player split screen, and offers tracks that mirror the original arcade experience. Missions include intercepting a missile in the Swiss Alps and grounding a plane in Hong Kong. Cradle Games helped port the Switch version after their work on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Arcade Wrath of the Mutants.

This release shows how arcade IPs are finding new life on home systems. Turning a late model arcade experience into a couch friendly title reflects both nostalgia and a desire to monetize established franchises beyond the arcade hall. The collaboration with Cradle Games points to a broader industry pattern of cross studio partnerships to adapt content for multiple platforms.

The challenge is translating arcade pacing and precision to home consoles, especially on Switch where hardware limits can affect visuals and performance. If the port keeps the feel of rapid racing and sharp shortcuts, it could satisfy fans and extend the life of a brand built on action and cinema energy.

Highlights

The real test will be how well this arcade rush translates to living rooms and how players respond to the balance of nostalgia and modern hardware.
