What players say
62% of 4,706 reviews are positive · 58% of 79 in the last 30 days
Players praise driving around Barcelona, especially with a steering wheel, along with the city visuals and open-world freedom. The dominant complaint is faulty traffic and pedestrian AI: cars stop at green lights or block roads, while pedestrians step into traffic and trigger penalties. Players also report persistent bugs and say the fares can become repetitive.
