Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 – Turbocharged has released, and will continue to release, so much post-release DLC it’s nearly impossible to keep up.

However, at OverTake, we’re suckers for real-world cars miniaturised. Following the Honda vehicle pack that had us reach for the credit card quicker than a VTEC system, comes the Made in Italy Expansion.

It includes the following four cars:
  • Alfa Romeo 155 V6 TI (DTM)
  • Lancia 037 (WRC)
  • Fiat 500D Modificado
  • Vespa 90 SS Super Sprint (1966)
You see what we mean? Such an evocative mix of 80s rally nostalgia and the 90s DTM arms race – the Alfa even sounds, just, reminiscent of the real thing.

Alongside the new motors is an ‘Italian Village’ environment, filled with ancient stone and a pizzeria – of course. This can be used to create new tracks in the editor, which in turn can be shared and race online.

But, as this is an expansion, and not just a car or cosmetic pack, there is a new area of the main single-player career – Creature Rampage.

A new area of the map is formed for you to play through – just like the AcceleRacers Expansion Pack – with 24 fresh events to progress through.
