Burnout Play Order

Every Burnout racer in release order, from the 2001 original through Takedown and Revenge to Paradise in 2008 and its 2018 remaster. The arcade crash formula has no story, so release order shows how takedowns and open worlds evolved.

About Burnout

Burnout started in 2001 with arcade racing built around near misses and crashes. Point of Impact in 2002 added crash junctions, and Takedown in 2004 made ramming rivals the core. Revenge in 2005, Legends on PSP and Dominator in 2007 kept the formula tight.

Paradise in January 2008 moved to an open city with online challenges, and Crash in 2011 tried a top down spinoff. Paradise Remastered in March 2018 is the latest release. Criterion moved to Need for Speed after, and no new Burnout has been announced as of September 2026.

Good to know

There is no story order for Burnout. Each game resets with new tracks and modes, so release order is the only list. Takedown is the fan pick for crash mode and Paradise for open driving. The mobile and Crash spinoffs are optional. The series is dormant since 2018 with the studio on other racers. Paradise is the best entry point now.
