How it plays
How does Road Rash II play?
Choose a rider and compete in illegal motorcycle races viewed from behind the bike. Accelerate, brake, steer around traffic, and attack nearby opponents while trying to stay on the road.
Successful finishes provide money for faster motorcycles and improved equipment. The game includes a progression through multiple races and supports competitive two-player play on the same console.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Road Rash II?
Learn each course before attempting to win consistently. Brake early for bends and avoid unnecessary contact with traffic, since crashes cost more time than most attacks save.
Save money for a faster motorcycle when the current machine can no longer keep up. Attack only when a rival is alongside you, and use open road sections to build speed before overtaking.
