Burnout CRASH! is a digital-only spin-off of the Burnout series focusing entirely on one of its defining features; vehicular crashing. However, it differs widely from its predecessors; it is played from a top-down perspective, allowing viewership of an entire level, Crashbreakers are recurring, and the game features no racing whatsoever. CRASH! was released in 2011 on the Xbox 360 (with Kinect support) and PlayStation 3, and on iOS the next year, a first for the series. It is the most recent original title in the series to date, as the newest Burnout game since is 2018's remaster of this game's 2008 predecessor, Burnout Paradise.
This game has examples of the following tropes:
- Announcer Chatter: A rather excitable one in this game.
- Canon Foreigner:
- Autolog from Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010) is repurposed for this game.
- The engine sound from selecting the P12 car is also taken from the Lamborghini from NFS: Hot Pursuit.
- Denser and Wackier: Being a more cartoonish take on Burnout with silly and excitable radio DJs, massive area destroying disasters, and its focus on nothing but the crashes, its certainly this trope.
- Endless Daytime: Every level takes place during the day.
