Neo Racer (series)

Neo Racer (ネオレーサー) is a series of futuristic racing games, set in an advanced civilization. The series is developed by the famous Ocean Games, who are popular for their game series Heroes of the World, Spectrum Warfare, and Warp. The creator of the Neo Racer franchise was the famous Yoshioka Koizumi (吉岡小泉), who also created much other prominent game series for the developer. Overall, the franchise has only 11 games developed (counting Neo Racer: Royale) for a variety of different systems. Most of the series' games have done very well.

Setting
The game takes place in a futuristic utopia, where racing is a very popular sport that many people enjoy and participate in. This setting would be the basis to every single other game in the franchise, excluding the spin-off game Neo Racer: Royale, which takes place in an alternate universe to the normal Neo Racer world. This alternate universe would be obsessed with tournament fighting instead of racing.
