Driver's Edge is an arcade racing game released in 1994 by Strata/Incredible Technologies. The game supports up to three players simultaneously, with each player taking the wheel of a vehicle and competing across a series of road courses. Players steer using a dedicated wheel controller, managing speed and positioning to outpace rivals. The game features a behind-the-vehicle perspective typical of arcade racers of its era, offering a straightforward racing structure where players progress through tracks by finishing within qualifying positions. The cabinet's three-player configuration made it a draw for competitive head-to-head play in arcades. Strata/Incredible Technologies built the experience around accessible controls and fast-paced racing action suited to the arcade environment.
