Hi-Octane is a 1995 vehicular combat and racing video game published by Electronic Arts for MS-DOS, PlayStation, and Sega Saturn. It was developed by Bullfrog Productions based upon their earlier Magic Carpet game code. The tracks are wider and more open than most racing games. Hi-Octane was not as well received as the thematically similar Wipeout by Psygnosis and was criticized for the short view distance. Bullfrog also released an expansion pack with three new tracks and new game modes.^{[citation needed]}
