old memories always hits hard
- Satyaranjan Jena
The game is really fun! The controls are smooth, the stunts feel great, and the career mode is very enjoyable. I loved playing it. Thank you Vector Unit for making such an awesome game. Please make Riptide GP 4!
- Medo · v2025.09.16
the graphics were very good for it's age
- Payton Lee · v2025.09.16
Very similar to Hydro Thunder. Crazy fun, lots of content, looks great, controls even better, and plenty of unlockables to keep playing for. Highly recommend.
- Peazeralus · v2025.09.16
underrated peak
- Louise adriele Geronimo · v2025.09.16
All this content with no ads for $3? Yeah, that's a good deal. Very fun racing game, lots of levels and challenges to play through, several different characters and vehicles to unlock. Can be very challenging on higher difficulties.
- Minimany1000 · v2025.09.16
one of the best game out there for mobile. console quality graphics, fun gameplay, and overall a nice racing game.
- Angelo Casillo
it's a nice game and nice concept also story is good character give new experience different character missions is also nice 💯 the boss fight especially Krex was best boss fight in this game so enjoyable
- Siddharth Podh · v2025.09.16
Still the best racing game on playstore
- Sifiso Motaung · v2025.09.16
very fun game. although it's paid, I think most of the people would go by this game . I just suggest that you play riptide gp 2 first, it's free. If you like it then this one is an upgrade in every sense. I love both the games by the way.
- Shivam Joshi · v2026.02.26
very addictive game
- andrew lim
the stunts are entirely unresponsive. my phone is good. multi step stunts don't work.
- ᴀɢɢʀɪᴍ · v2025.09.16
love this game :) I played the original back in 2014 and recently got renegade!
- JamesGalaxy41
stunning graphics even now, 8 years later.
- Roab Zahril Palma · v2025.09.16
well done, fast paced and very challenging! but nothing that hard work and determination you finally break past that wall into the bonus series and things. awesome game!
- Mick Dotca · v2025.09.16
it's pretty sad when games from 30 years ago are better than anything you put out now
- Evil beetle kustoms& creations · v2025.09.16
This game is actually pretty fun. Same thing as everyone else down here, the story is nice, the gameplay is nice, and the graphics are absolutely STUNNING even on lower end devices. My one gripe however is difficulty, especially with the last few levels. Everything else up to the Grand Prix has good difficulty scaling and as long as you upgrade your parts and learn some new tricks, you can get by in a breeze. Despite this, the Grand Prix and final boss fight with Krex are insanely difficult.
- Stefen Hamby · v2025.09.16
Best game ever
- Blace jr · v2023.10.04
fun to play
- Timothy Ozhuwan
Vector Unit is the best! Long time enthusiast here.
- David Aeschlimann · v2025.09.16
absolute game✋😐🤚
- Su Aidi · v2025.09.16
One of my favourite games out there and I underrated. I've played it on my old phone back in 2022-2023 (Redmi note 12 4g) and everything's working well until I just downloaded it recently today where when I opened the game the texts are all pixelated and fuzzy, since I bought the premium full version I hope vector unit will help me optimise it for my new phone the Redmi note 14 Pro as I just wanted to relieve my childhood of water jet racing on my mobile phone.
- Ryan Low · v2025.09.16
Full controller support and a blast to play
- Thomas Daley · v2026.02.26
Even though the game is old, the water physics and story can beat any recent games. It's very enjoyable and worth 5 stars. If only the developers can update/remastered it with good graphics especially the environment.. it can easily challenge all recent racing games.
- Richard Gomes · v2026.02.26
This game is amazing and super fun, there is one thing tho, if it had first person then it would be PEAK. If it had first person and I had the choice to I'd give it 6 stars!! PEAK GAME, ITS WORTH THE MONEY
- Andrea Suarez · v2025.09.16
Very enjoyable. I've played it or another version of it many years ago, still the same great game.
- Amir Adel · v2026.02.26
Coming back to this game with a better device and a controller made such a huge difference the challenging game play can be properly appreciate the graphics physics are all still anazing
- Casual1y Gaming · v2025.09.16
just finished riptide gp2 it was great but this one has a few bugs which i can live with except the fact that currently any side swiping stunts rarely ever work and that really affects the game, kinda sad cause i was excited to also complete this one
- Muhammad Abdul
You guys should make more premium games. Mobile gaming is lacking good offline games that are full price and optimized like these.
- Vinicius · v2025.09.16
best games ever for everything includ graphics isn't disturb when I play actually I enjoy but the most thinks make to like this game is multipleyar is best for any friends in there word even your fellow best friends also u can play together my request 😉is as riptide gp renegade alsomake beach buggy racing 2 to be multipleyar I don't see best racing game like beach buggy racing 2 so if you take my request I will thanks vector unit pleas make also multipleyar in beach buggy racing 2 please 🙏🙏🙏
- Nassir Mohd

- Abhishek Mahagaonkar · v2025.09.16
One Of The Best Game In Playstore And We Wait For Many More Racing Games Types Of This...
- Daslaniya Mayank · v2026.02.26
I love this game, it’s one of my favorite racing games I’ve ever played and my favorite mobile game of all time
- Rahguhbluhfluh · v2023.10.04
I wished that this game can be free roam so that we can roam around on the hydrojets and even drag race on open water
- hfmfudhfnvakwvsis dhd kdh · v2023.10.04
I do like the game but the original is better than the new one because this game is easy and hard so I'm saying they should make new game
- Jacquelyn Collier · v2025.09.16
This is a great racing game, with sharp graphics, intuitive controls, and enough of a story to make you care about the characters. I love it because it is one of the few racing type games to support a gamepad or controller and do so without any problems! Love to see more from this group of game designers!
- Wade Burk · v2025.09.16
Stunt swipes don't register
- Prasun Bagdi · v2025.09.16
What can I say, this game is good.
- Nine · v2025.09.16
I addictive this game so much, well I adore this game. ❤️❤️😘😘
- Trololo (Sala) · v2025.09.16
I really like the game, but At some point during the races, I got stressed to complete the game 100%
- Emilio Miceli Sandoval Cruz · v2025.09.16
Love this game! Super fun and the graphics are amazing. I love how unique this game is and the fact it doesn't use lives or energy to play each race. You get to play it for as long as you like
- Tenukie Harriott · v2025.09.16
certified arcade racing games/10
- Ilham Maulana · v2023.10.04
Could use some work when I'm performing stunts but the rest is cool
- Maestro QPN · v2025.09.16
This is the best graphics racing game I have been playing since 2015. This year in 2026, I purchased its Riptide GP game and i am enjoying the same.
- Syed Mohammed Hassan · v2025.09.16
this is a genuine 5 star. the racing is so satisfying but the salom mode is hard for me i am having a hard time beating it so ive been playing other games.
- n92yt · v2023.10.04
Amazing Graphics and Well Optimized fun racing game. Absolutely Premium experience. No Ads. 120 FPS in my Xiaomi Pad 7. Superior experience.
- Anish · v2025.09.16
This game is crazy good right off the rip but I really love it now that I’ve adjusted to the controls and changed tilt to arrow (personal preference, I guess. This game is fun, the graphics, physics and sound effects are top notch (love the Doppler effect) and the playability and variance make it fun to come back to again and again. I don’t do much online stuff so I’m only playing career and single race and it’s WELL worth the price tag. ONLY COMPLAINT SO FAR? would love to be able to adjust the size and positioning of the directional arrows, boost etc. (like on Wreckfest). Love this game!!!
- Bokonon1971 · v2023.10.04
Great game.
- THAT GUY · v2025.09.16
Good game. Need 120fps support.
- Mrinal KD · v2025.09.16
nice game
- Michael Cance · v2025.09.16
I hated all the controls for touch or tilt.
- James “ReddSinz” Krik
Playing on max graphics, Dimensity 7300 Ultimate, 12GB RAM, and plays super smooth. I don't experience stuttering, no lag, so on. The game is pretty challenging, my default difficulty is "hard." I love it the way it's adrenaline-inducing on that difficulty, and gives more to the aesthetic and feel of the game having opponents in front of me and behind me. Solid arcade racing experience. Superb graphics, by the time it was released to today.
- Jefil Christian Luna · v2025.09.16
🔥
- Shaiman Mohammad · v2025.09.16
First premium game I ever downloaded and boy it's worth it.
- Jubraj Toolsie · v2025.09.16

great Game but can you update the game.
- Anthony Curzons
disappointment game not working fine 😞
- Patrick O'Donnell · v2025.09.16
very good game
- MRIMI JOSEPH · v2025.09.16
Solid stunt racing game. Still not used to play it with touchscreen because sometimes my stunt input didn't register (especially backflip, maybe I didn't swipe it far enough), no problems with a controller. Also game runs very smooth with no lag/stutters at all and loads very quick
- Irfan Rafi · v2025.09.16
its so good. a must have game for a people that love racing games. my only gripe is stunt not always recognized on touch controls. as always, controller is recommended to play this game.
- Muhammad Dzaki Al Fatih (InMoba) · v2025.09.16
Good Game
- Johnston Chrysler · v2025.09.16
amazing graphics amazing racing mechanics. very fun
- Basavesh A · v2025.09.16
I think it's better on the Switch (I'm not sure if it's on PC, but that'd also be better, probably), but it's a solid aquatic racing game like Hydro Thunder or Wave Race. Good music, decent little storyline for the campaign and a great sense of speed.
- Sintra4
Bang on game on vector platform 👌🤘
- J0SEPH SASHi (JOseph S) · v2025.09.16
This is a great game yeah it’s not perfect but the reason I put a five down is because no other game is so much in depth as far as a water racing game there’s many regular street racers but this is the only one that looks great and it feels great. Kudos to vector unit and their great ambition on creating games.
- JJ Spin win · v2023.10.04
Is good men
- Crocodilefun · v2023.10.04
Title says it all. One of the best games out there.
- Transdoge · v2023.10.04
It's a good game
- Stoppostingaboutamongus · v2023.10.04
I know a good and challenging racing game when I play one. Yeah it’s easy until the final race with krex but if you’re smart you can beat him and that’s the bottom line because I actually have done it be smart and you can win any challenge in the game
- Grave digging · v2023.10.04
This game was my go to when I was 9. I love this game so much you should try it
- Lemon_mail13 · v2023.10.04
I love it
- freddyNarvaez · v2023.10.04
It is so awesome!
- i'm a cool emo · v2023.10.04
It’s really good game until you get to a certain point where it gets too hard then you won’t be able to do anything you won’t be able to get money you won’t be able to get any of the other vehicles you won’t be able to do anything
- tjn620 · v1.2.2
A nice game with clean code and no marketing junk or pay for play gimmicks. Awesome soundtrack.
- Rajqqq · v1.2.2
This game is cool and I love the game and the graphics and maybe you should add more games featuring this like riptide the future Or like of the games but yeah this game is probably the best game I’ve played so far
- jejdjdjmfmrmrmf · v1.2.2
The places that you race are designed really great!!!!! I have been playing this game for literally years!
- iwwiu · v1.2.2
This is the perfect mix of two of my favorite games and it’s mobile!!! I dreamed of this stuff as a kid. Sooo fun! Love this game!
- ffjjrcbjnsw · v1.2.2
To the people complaining about the tilt device controls, You can change it to touchscreen in settings > Controls. Try harder guys, It’s not that hard to find it.
- 𖤛𝙄тѕ𝘼ѕтя๏𝙔𝙏𖤛 · v1.2.2
Amazing picture quality and fast paced racing makes it the ultamite game
- person97847632163 · v1.2.2
有中文就更好了
- 机智杉 · v1.2.2
To be honest, I am a little disappointed. I am the huge fan of Riptide GP and Riptide GP2. I don’t like the tilt controls on Riptide GP Renegade; it felt so different and much harder to adapt. Maybe it is because I got used to the tilt controls for GP and GP2.
- Phantom ghost(Daniel) · v1.2.2
So much better than those with full off adds. Others should follow them. Very much enjoyable and addictive.
- Mahmud Eco · v1.2.2
If you are a fan of racing games you'll like this game but one major issue ruined the whole game for me the upgrades are messed up you upgrade your Speed Handling and Acceleration well if you upgrade handling to Max you gain more top speed the speed and acceleration options are useless handling is all you need I tested it in a challenging race on a hard difficulty and beat my opponent by 1 minute ahead by maxing out handling nothing else witch is neat but as racing game it takes the fun out of it and you can't really make your ride super fast or anything witch is fair but unfortunate the upgrade system doesn't work I love the gameplay and everything else however deserves editors choice but needs work
- Kissarmy15 · v1.2.2
I can’t wait to get this game I found my old kindle and this game was on it it was one of my all time favorite games and I remember the time I got it me and my brother were sooo in love with it and I thank u for making the game I’m going to get it again and give it 5 stars plz respond I can’t tell u how much I love this game it too much that words can not explain plz respond thank for for making such an awesome game
- fdcvffhghhyhcgfggfbgf · v1.2.2
I wish I had a freestyle category and a create your own track category.
- kydx2666 · v1.2.2
Pure racing with a not too steep learning curve.
- iChipfilms · v1.2.2
Great: 1. racing mechanics 2. graphics. especially water. 3. short race as pass time.
- ghainxna · v1.2.2
BUY IT!!!!!
- I Just Am Rating Apps · v1.2.2
I want my money back it is a hot bike doesn’t steer right
- habbebvxj · v1.2.2
glad i paid for this app just to have it crash every time i open it
- kat loves renjun · v1.2.2
I’m playing this game continuously”I’ve won all stages and bought every hydro bike there is. There’s no bikes to buy no energy or improvements to make. My dollar signs keep rising with nothing to spend it on. I played riptide2 and it was the same thing that makes this game boring it hasn’t had an upgrade in 2 years. Upgrade this game before making riptide 3
- Harlemhitta125 · v1.2.2
I used to love this game but it won’t open with the new iOS update. I’m not sure what to do
- Don venuci · v1.2.2
Omg this is phenomenal! 🤗 I love ❤️ playing this game When my dad bought this game I played it all the time!!!👍🏼
- Marshmello alone · v1.2.2
I like this because it has a throttle. It gives you power of how fast you are going and how you turn corners
- artyhomework · v1.2.2
This game is ausom but if you could Mack it free I hat would be ausom
- jo how are you doing · v1.2.2
For $2.99 they should make the controls easier. Waste of money IMO.
- Caspazza · v1.2.2
Fryta is a facking batch!
- angry lil boi · v1.2.2
This game is a lot like hydro Thunder. Edit: I was playing Hydro thunder on my Xbox one S and realize that both games were created by the same company. I’m glad that hydro thunder is backwards compatible.
- Wispy12 · v1.2.1
I any my money back. Not any better than the free games
- rafi372 · v1.2.1
I like most of the game and recommend it but hate one feature freestyle I hate it
- walrus lord oblivein · v1.2.1
This is a fun game, far from perfect, but not bad. I find I enjoy the game more when using my Steelseries Nimbus Bluetooth game controller. One complaint I have would be the inability to pass through some screens... I don’t want to waste time with the story, let me pass through the conversation, I just want to race.
- Rambo8649 · v1.2.1
Love this game. Great gameplay, visuals and animation. External controller support also. Many different modes to keep you interested. Excellence in iOS!
- Dillasaysgo · v1.2.1
I love this game because there is no in app purchases and premiums. Also, there is no ads and it does not require cell service to uses. The only thing this game needs is higher resolution and more detailed textures. This game needs new people to play so I can play multiplayer.
- TiMeRy. · v1.2.1
I used to play need for speed no limits but then found this game which is not boring and is fun forever definitely get this if u like racing especially stunts
- Riptide pro · v1.2.1
Yes. It does cost a few dollars. Consider, however, how hard it is to find a GOOD mobile game without in app purchases. One of my favorite parts to be honest! But the graphics and game play are super fun. If you like racing games, instead of getting one youll end up paying money in anyway, pull out the few bucks and enjoy!
- Jpoiuytrew · v1.2.1
The only thing I would add to this game is an option to control the throttle, for instance, throttle button bottom right, directly left place the brake button, bottom left a left arrow and a right arrow side by side or even better a equally sized steering wheel and the ability to change the size of both the throttle buttons and steering buttons vertically and horizontally and the ability to slide them wherever you want in screen.

- DJ MINI BOSS · v1.2.1
I really love this game but I have passed all the levels but the last 3 are not available? So I’m kinda confused.
- Tasimon · v1.2.1
This has been a very entertaining game for me, My wife and our 9 year old. We got our first Apple TV game controllers this summer and this game is great for them. It’s been difficult to find a good follow up multi player to this one.
