SelectButtonKevin MitchellJul 20208/10NASCAR Heat 5 feels like the definitive edition of Heat 4, along with yearly team, roster, and track updates.

ForbesBrian MaziqueJul 20207.5/10Gameplay was a strength of NASCAR Heat 4, and that has been augmented for NH5. The play is so much fun, it helps to compensate for some of the presentation issues, and what I’d describe as a lack of creativity in other areas.

Hardcore GamerCory WellsJul 20203.5/5Moving all development in-house for 704Games may be beneficial down the road, but for NASCAR Heat 5, it enabled minimal changes.

TheSixthAxisTom Harrison-LordJul 20205/10Including all of the NASCAR license must be a mammoth task, and while Heat 5 is an improvement over its forbearers, the overall feeling of the game is that of a vacuous slog. With no obvious USP other than the volume of cars and tracks, or magic new features that other racing games should take inspiration from, NASCAR Heat 5 is a perfunctory depiction that's enjoyable in small doses but runs out of tyres once you get past the initial stages.
