Taxi Chaos is a brand new Crazy Taxi-style game coming to PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on February 23rd, 2021, and the developers have shared with us some of the improvements coming in the big day one update.
Just when I thought my Taxi Chaos PS5/PS4 review was done… the developers dropped an email explaining what will be fixed and improved in the game’s day one update, which will go live alongside the game. I was under the impression the update would be at least a week or two away. Thankfully, that’s not the case, and day one players (with internet connections…) will be getting an improved version of the game.
