Another day, another Summer Game Fest show, another new driving game. Crazy Taxi will return, 24 years since the last new console entry (Crazy Taxi 3, excluding handheld and mobile spin-offs).

Sega’s vibrant time-based driving game was confirmed for a reboot back in 2023 as part of a shizzle reel during that year’s The Game Awards. Since then, things have been quiet, until today’s (7th June 2026) trailer during the Xbox Games Showcase.

The bright yellow, Cadillac-inspired, cab returns, alongside lead character Axel and location San Francisco. The trailer opens with a shot of what looks like the Golden Gate Bridge and there are also several jumps over the city’s distinctive graded streets.

Sega’s gaming series is also known for its pop-punk soundtrack, and the Offspring’s All I Want is used in this promotional video. This new entry is being led by the original creator, Kenji Kanno, although Sega has confirmed the use of generative AI as a “support tool” in the game’s creation.
