Jet Moto 4

Jet Moto 4 is a 2020 racing video game developed by Evolution Studios and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation video game console. It is the sequel to the 1999 game Jet Moto 3, and the first installment in the Jet Moto franchise in twenty one years. It was released in North America on March 17, 2020, in throughout the rest of the world on March 21, 2020. Jet Moto 4 is the first game in the series to be developed by Evolution Studios, the developers of the Motorstorm series.

As with previous Jet Moto installments, gameplay in Jet Moto 4 revolves around the use of hoverbikes to traverse a race course, similar to modern day motorcross, but with the added ability to traverse water. Jet Moto 4 added a new mechanic to the series in the form of rocket thrusters that could be activated midair to give their hoverbike an increase in velocity in the direction they faced for a brief moment. Stunt tracks, introduced in Jet Moto 3 by 989 Studios, were omitted from Jet Moto 4 as Evolution Studios wished to focus on making the core racing as exciting as possible.

Development
The idea of Jet Moto 4 was initially pitched to Sony Computer Entertainment by Codemasters in 2018, as the Jet Moto license had become largely stagnant for a number of years. After listening to the initial pitch for Jet Moto 4, and with Codemasters citing that the series could be rejuvenated much like former Singletrac IP Twisted Metal, Sony agreed to finance and distribute the game under the condition that Codemasters develop the entry under the Evolution Studios name, which had been defunct since 2016. This was largely in part to Sony feeling that games developed by Evolution Studios carried the same spirit of hard racing found in the original Jet Moto games and that buyers would be more receptive of the game if it was marketed under the Evolution Studios name rather than as a Codemasters project.

Characters
Jet Moto 4 features the highest number of selectable racers in the series, with numerous characters from all three previous entries in the series returning. Jet Moto's selectable racer total is 24.
