Stuntman: Hollywood revives the classic driving series with Fast & Furious, Knight Rider, Back to the Future, and more

Saber Interactive is bringing back Stuntman with a new single player driving game called Stuntman: Hollywood. The game was revealed during Sony’s State of Play showcase, and it revives the stunt driving series with a much bigger hook: official movie and TV crossovers from Universal Pictures.

The original Stuntman launched in 2002 and was followed by Stuntman: Ignition in 2007. Both games built their identity around precision driving challenges where players performed dangerous movie stunts for fictional film productions. Stuntman: Hollywood keeps that core idea, but adds real entertainment franchises for the first time.

Saber has partnered with Universal Pictures to bring in properties such as Fast & Furious, Back to the Future, Knight Rider, Miami Vice, and Death Race. That means players will not only be performing generic action movie stunts. They will be driving through scenes inspired by some of the most recognizable car focused franchises in film and television.

The setup is simple but exciting. You play as a stunt performer trying to rise through Hollywood by completing increasingly dangerous driving scenes. That includes jumps, drifts, near misses, crashes, and tightly timed stunt sequences where precision matters as much as speed.

The biggest advantage is the vehicle lineup. Saber says players will be able to drive iconic machines such as K.I.T.T. from Knight Rider and the Time Machine from Back to the Future. The game will also include supercars, muscle cars, and motorcycles, giving players different handling styles for different stunt sequences.

This could help Stuntman: Hollywood stand apart from normal racing games. It is not only about winning a race or setting the fastest lap. The appeal is performing a scene correctly. You need to hit marks, chain actions together, and make the stunt look cinematic while chaos unfolds around you.

That mission structure is what made the older Stuntman games memorable. They were often difficult, but they had a unique rhythm. A successful run felt like completing a puzzle at high speed. Bringing that idea back with real Universal franchises gives the revival a stronger identity than a simple nostalgia project.

Saber also has experience with licensed action games, which makes the project interesting. The studio says it wants to respect the original series while evolving it into something new. That is the right approach because Stuntman has been gone for nearly two decades, and modern players will expect more polished driving, bigger set pieces, and stronger presentation.

Stuntman: Hollywood is confirmed for PC, Xbox Series X and S, and PlayStation 5. Saber has not announced a release window yet, so the game is still missing one of the biggest details players will want to know.

For now, the reveal is enough to make the project worth watching. A stunt driving game built around Fast & Furious, Back to the Future, Knight Rider, Miami Vice, and Death Race has an obvious appeal, especially for players who miss driving games that are not only about open worlds or competitive racing.

If Saber can make the stunt challenges feel precise, cinematic, and varied, Stuntman: Hollywood could bring back a style of driving game that has been missing for years. The idea already sounds strong: step into famous action worlds, drive legendary vehicles, and turn every crash, jump, and drift into part of the show.
