(known simply as in North America) is a 2010 arcade racing game that remains a cult classic for its unique "the city is your weapon" gameplay mechanic . Unlike traditional racers, players trigger massive environmental explosions, called Power Plays , to wreck opponents and dynamically alter the track.

Split Second ’s core brilliance lies in its fusion of racing with environmental storytelling. Unlike traditional racers where the track is a static obstacle course, Split Second treats the environment as a weapon. The "Survival of the Fastest" mechanic transforms each lap into a summer blockbuster. Triggering a power play—such as toppling a control tower or splitting a freighter ship—is not merely a visual flourish; it is a tactical nuke that rewrites the racing line. This design demands split-second reflexes and strategic resource management. The game’s full version, as repackaged by DODI, includes all these features along with the adrenaline-pumping “Elite” series and the thrilling “Detonator” mode, where players race against a ticking bomb. This completeness is crucial, as the DLC content adds layers of challenge that the base game only hints at.
