Welcome back to Paradise City! Revisit Criterion's legendary white-knuckle open-world racer next month.
Hello there, PlayStation fans!
As always, it’s great to be back here on the blog and today I’m incredibly excited to share with you the news that Burnout Paradise Remastered is coming to PlayStation 4 on March 16th. Did we mention it’ll be running in 4K at 60fps on PS4 Pro?
If you’ve played Burnout Paradise previously you’ll no doubt have fond memories of the first time you got behind the wheel of classic cars such as the Hunter Cavalry, Carson Fastback, Jansen X12 and the Montgomery Hawker.
Maybe you have a soft spot for the toy versions of the Hunter Manhattan, Krieger WTR, Carson GT Concept or the Carson Inferno van? Perhaps you enjoy cruising around Paradise City on two wheels as opposed to four.
Be honest now, how many of you owned the Jansen P12 Diamond?
Whatever your choice of vehicle, Paradise City allows you to tear it up in the ultimate driving playground. Race across hectic downtown avenues all the way up to the wild mountain roads and relive the high-octane stunts and wanton destruction that Burnout series has become synonymous with.
But what better way to play than with friends? Burn rubber and shred metal across the open roads of Paradise City while discovering jumps, stunts and shortcuts. Wreck your friends online and collect their mugshots or join forces to demolish hundreds of online challenges.
Break the rules and crash anywhere at any time. Tear up the rulebook and set speed and destruction records all over town. Send your car launching, spinning and barrel rolling through the city. Leave a trail of destruction in your rear-view mirror, wherever you go and whenever you want.
What’s in the box? I’m glad you asked!

Burnout 3 is the only burnout game i ever played. But it is the best raceing game i have ever played, any chance of burnout 3 remake?
I love Burnout Paradise (my first Platinum), but I’ve already bought it and all of the DLC twice (disc and download), so I won’t be buying the PS4 version until it’s cheaper than $39.99, but I will be buying it eventually. Thanks, EA and Criterion.
Yoooooooo! Burnout Paradise was my jam!! So many good memories and “firsts” for me from that game:
-My first PS3 game
-Made my first PSN friend
-Got my first trophy
Safe to say I love this game <3
Between this and the Motorstorm spiritual successor (OnRush), these next couple of months are going to be a great time for arcade racers.
What about the Logitech G29 steering wheel? It has to be supported. Burnout Paradise on PS3 was so much more fun with a wheel.
Also I gotta say thanks a lot for bringing back the multiplayer as well. This game had one of my favorite online multiplayer experiences, period.
Dead Space trilogy remaster when?
O man I can’t wait for this game I never played it but I did my research and o boy o boy am I excited for game you how much money it would save me buy used cars just to crash them just to see the damage o man I can that in this game oh can’t forget the rolling part man it’s about time they made games like this I can tell my girlfriend I’m live longer if buy this game no more hospital bill’s boy is she gonna be happy
This is awesome news! Burnout Paradise was one of my favorite PlayStation 3 games. I invested over 300 hours into the game on PS3. I worked my way all the way up to the Criterion Elite license, and also earned my first platinum trophy playing this game.
I’ve got fond memories of hunting down billboards, knocking out Road Rules, and collaborating with my friends over and over (and over and over) on some of those fun multiplayer challenges. I got all of the add-on packs, and played the heck out of them too..I earned nearly every vehicle in Paradise City…although the Carbon Uberschall 8 and P12 Diamond still elude me to this day.
I’d be happy to do it all again on PlayStation 4!
Will this game use the Frostbite engine?
That’s awesome! I never buy remakes, but this one I’ll have to buy! :)
Why remaster Paradise?!? It SUCKED! I played Burnout since the beginning and loved 1 through 4. Revenge was definitely the cream of the crop. Thats the one that should be getting remaster. Paradise ruined the franchise, Burnout should’ve never been open world period! Now if we get a remaster of Takedown or Revenge, I’d be more than happy to open my wallet. Till then, I’ll be saving my $40.
Agree, Revenge was amazing!!!!
Good on you for saving your money. I also played Burnout since the beginning, but fortunately I’m not so fragile to let a franchise get ruined by one game. In fact, I loved Burnout Paradise as a new entry in the series. Guess I just refuse to be scared by change lol
