Hardcore 4x4
SLES-00261
Initially Released 13 December 1996
Hardcore 4x4 is an off-road racing game developed and published by Gremlin Interactive, known in the US as TNN Motorsports Hardcore 4x4, featuring six terrain-based courses, five vehicle types, and a hard rock soundtrack across Sega Saturn, PlayStation, and PC formats.
The database currently catalogues 2 PAL variants across Original and Zoo Classics release types. Distribution covered France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and the UK. The Original release uses a Multiway Jewel One Disk case with no hologram and includes a Gremlin Dark Blue Leaflet titled “Ahead of the game” as documented loose paperwork. The Zoo Classics budget re-release moves to a Full Jewel PAL case with a Hologram B on the case, losing the paperwork insert but carrying a distinct barcode. Language support spans English, French, and German. The two distinct case formats across the Original and Zoo Classics variants give this title added interest for collectors focused on tracking format changes between release tiers within a single title.
