Ridge Racer 6 is an arcade racing game developed and published by Namco as a launch title for the Xbox 360 in 2005. It keeps the series' long, controlled drifts and adds the nitrous system from Ridge Racer for the PSP: drifting fills the nitrous tanks, and each tank gives a burst of speed.

The main mode, World Xplorer, is a branching map of more than 200 races across over 30 courses, many of them taken from earlier games in the series, with more than 130 cars to unlock. It also had online races over Xbox Live and 36 achievements.

A native Windows port, made by static recompilation, needs the game's USA disc dumped from your own copy.
