Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition Remix, released on March 13, 2006, for the Microsoft Xbox, is an enhanced Platinum Hits edition of Rockstar San Diego’s 2005 arcade racer, published by Rockstar Games. Selling ~1.1 million units on PS2/Xbox, it expands the original with Tokyo (from Midnight Club II), 24 new vehicles (e.g., Scion tC), and 25 extra tracks (124 total, featuring The Game, Sean Paul). Players race through open-world cities—San Diego, Atlanta, Detroit, and Tokyo—in licensed cars like the 1964 Chevrolet Impala or Lamborghini Murciélago, hitting speeds over 250 MPH (IGN: 8.8/10).
The Xbox version boasts 480p visuals, realistic crash damage, and deep customization (rims, vinyls, nitrous, DUB Magazine-inspired parts). Modes include Career, Arcade, Cruise, and Online (revived via Insignia servers), supporting eight players in races, capture the flag, or custom tracks. The Tokyo Challenge mode adds a neon-lit city, though its reused Midnight Club II map feels dated (Metacritic: 87/100). X posts praise its nostalgic soundtrack and customization, but some note minor framerate issues compared to Need for Speed: Most Wanted.
