Crazy Taxi: World Tour FAQ
How do I start playing Crazy Taxi: World Tour?+
Start by reading the beginner guide in this wiki — it explains the controls, the Crazy Dash launch, how to pick up your first fare and how to read the destination arrow. The game launches in 2027, but you can wishlist it on Steam today and sign up for the closed network test (September 11-13, 2026) through the official SEGA site to get hands-on early.
What is the best first car for beginners?+
Because the full car roster has not been announced, the smartest advice is to start with a balanced ride — a taxi with even top speed, handling and drift stats is the easiest to learn on. When the network test arrives, use the tier list in this wiki to compare the six test cars by stats and pick the one that matches how you like to drive. Tune-ups let you fix weaknesses later.
How do I play with friends in multiplayer?+
Crazy Taxi: World Tour supports cross-play across PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Switch 2. In Custom Match you can set up a private lobby, tune the rules and invite up to six players. Pickup Race and Cops 'N' Cabbies are the two confirmed online modes, with ranked matchmaking for players who want to climb the ladder.
When does Crazy Taxi: World Tour release?+
SEGA has announced a 2027 launch window for Crazy Taxi: World Tour on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2. An exact date has not been confirmed yet. Before launch, a closed network test runs September 11-13, 2026, giving players an early taste of online Pickup Race and Cops 'N' Cabbies on the West Coast map.
Does Crazy Taxi: World Tour have cross-play?+
Yes — Crazy Taxi: World Tour supports cross-platform online play across PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Switch 2. This means up to six players can race together in Pickup Race regardless of which platform they own, and Cops 'N' Cabbies teams can be made up of players on different systems. Cross-play was confirmed with the game's announcement.
How many city maps are in the game?+
Crazy Taxi: World Tour features five real-world-inspired city maps in its World Tour campaign. Two have been confirmed so far: the San Francisco-inspired West Coast, which is the series' classic opener and the network test map, and Germany, with winding streets, castles and holiday markets. Cities 3, 4 and 5 have not been announced yet.
How do I earn crazy money fast?+
Crazy money is earned by completing fares quickly and safely. Chain drifts, air time and near-misses to raise each passenger's fare and earn tip bonuses, and always watch the main timer — completing rides fast extends your run. Taking the best earning routes on each map (covered in the maps-locations category) and using a well-tuned car also boosts your pay per session.
