Milestone announced HOT WHEELS Infinite Rush during the Summer Game Fest 2026 livestream on June 6, describing it as the latest entry in the series based on Mattel's Hot Wheels mini car brand. The game has four freely explorable islands, each with activities and a boss called a Rush Master, and more than 150 vehicles split into four types: All-Rounder, Titan, Drift, and Speeder. A Track Builder mode lets players create courses, alongside a single-player campaign, split-screen multiplayer, and online cross-play. The announcement named a September 24, 2026 release for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2, with the Switch 2 version not supporting cross-play.

Preview coverage in June showed an open-world racer built around toy-scale islands. A hands-on session at Summer Game Fest Play Days 2026 described players exploring, completing events, and collecting over 150 cars, with a livery editor and track builder also included. The preview build carried two of the four islands. The principal game designer asked previewers to approach the game with fresh eyes, framing the move away from track-based racing.

The release itself came on September 10, 2026, two weeks earlier than the announced date, on Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. Milestone shipped three editions: a standard edition at 6,490 yen, a Deluxe Edition with a Vehicle Pass at 10,230 yen, and an Ultimate Edition with the Ferrari Expansion Pack and Car Collection Pack at 12,760 yen, all tax included. The car roster is split across paid packs on day one.
