Circuit Breakers is a racing video game developed by Supersonic Software and published by Mindscape for the PlayStation. It is the sequel to Supersonic Racers.[3]

A remake for the PlayStation 2 was released in Europe only under the name Circuit Blasters in 2005.

Reception[]

The game received average reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings.[4] Edge gave it a favourable review over a month before it was released in Europe.[6] Next Generation said, "If you possess a multitap and three willing friends, this game should be at the very top of your 'must buy' list."[10] However, GameSpot gave the European version a negative review, a few months before it was released Stateside.[8]
