There are games about racing. There are games about destruction. Stuntman: Hollywood is about filmmaking. It is about that moment when you are racing toward a ramp at top speed. Everything around you is on fire, the camera catches the perfect angle, and you realize this is the take.

Stuntman: Hollywood is built on the speed and control of an arcade racer, the spectacular chaos of crashes and destruction, and the precision a difficult stunt demands. And then comes that short, exact call: “Cut!”

Genre influences

In terms of pace, Stuntman: Hollywood is closest to the kind of arcade games that throw you straight into a dense, spectacular set piece and never let up. Taking inspiration from the original Stuntman games (with Burnout and Split/Second also being especially important touchstones for us here) — where speed, pressure, and spectacle work together to make every run feel intense.

Shooting movies

Take on iconic stunts inspired by fan-favorite Universal Pictures films and NBCUniversal TV shows like Fast & Furious, Back to the Future, Knight Rider, Miami Vice, and Death Race. The entire game is built around movie shoots, where you perform stunts in all kinds of vehicles including legends like the Time Machine and KITT along with many other cars, SUVs, motorcycles, and even a school bus.

From the start, we wanted to show the path of a stunt performer through the making of big movies. Each film is split into episodes, and each episode is a unique level with its own vehicle, and specific gameplay twists. From one episode to the next, the environment, pace, objectives, and scenes all change. Every film feels completely fresh. 

Performing stunts

In every episode, the director gives you new tasks: drift through a section, hold a tight line, crash through obstacles, dodge incoming fire, ride on two wheels. Time is always pressing — the shoot runs on a timer and the director will only allow a limited number of takes. 

Free stunts are where your own style comes through. These are the moments when a stunt performer can skim past a flamethrower, dodge an explosion at the last second and take a risk for the sake of a truly spectacular scene.

Stars and awards

We wanted the game to reward stylish, precise driving and confident stunt work. That is why the game uses a star system. You earn stars based on how well you perform both required and free stunts. In every episode, the goal is simple: earn as many stars as possible.

That same idea extends to challenges. Each episode includes tougher, more thrilling tasks from the director. They make a familiar scene more unpredictable and give you a chance to earn additional stars.

The more stars you earn, the more prestigious the stunt award your film can win. This is where everything that happened on set comes together into a single result.

Garage

The Garage puts your whole career on display. After episodes, films, challenges, and strong runs, it fills up with new items, trophies, and keepsakes.

We wanted in-game progress to be easily visible, which is why the Garage shows everything you have earned. One look tells you how much you have already completed and how much you have collected.

Additional modes

Beyond the main films, Stuntman: Hollywood also includes B-roll episodes, short filler films and stunt arenas. Together, they add more stunts, tougher challenges, and more unexpected scenes to the game.

Conclusion

For us, this is a game about filmmaking, risk, and that exact “Cut” that makes it all worth it. Wishlist Stuntman: Hollywood for PS5 today! See you on set, stunt performers.
