Hamster Corporation will release Rave Racer on PlayStation 5 as part of its Arcade Archives line later this month, giving fans a chance to play the arcade sequel on a modern system. The company also plans a Console Archives edition — the series that recreates original home releases — which is slated to arrive shortly after the arcade re-release.

  • Rave Racer, the arcade follow-up to the original Ridge Racer, is confirmed for PS5 via Hamster's Arcade Archives collection this month.
  • Hamster previously brought the arcade Ridge Racer to current PlayStation platforms; this launch continues its effort to preserve classic Namco racers.
  • The Console Archives version — aimed at reproducing the game as it appeared on a home console — is expected to be released soon, though an exact date hasn’t been announced.
  • These reissues are part of a broader trend of bringing arcade and retro console titles to modern storefronts for preservation and accessibility.
