Reception
The game received favourable reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings. GameSpot said, "Dethkarz follows the futuristic racing formula exactly, without bringing any real personality of its own." IGN said, "Dethkarz is just like all the other arcade racers that have been released recently. It's a decent racing game, but it's not as good as Need for Speed 3, Test Drive 5, or Ultimate Race Pro." Next Generation said, "as breathtaking as the game may be, and as well as it performs as a traditional racing game, there is absolutely nothing here that hasn't been done before. Of course, we don't expect every game to be a genre-shattering experience, but it never hurts to have an innovative touch or two thrown in for good measure."
