The game is set in September 1977, two years after the events of Vigilante 8. The southwestern United States has become peaceful in the wake of the Coyotes' defeat, but the Oil Monopoly Alliance Regime (OMAR) continues to dominate most of the global petroleum market, well into the 21st century. With new Coyotes leader Slick Clyde leading OMAR during the twilight of his life by 2017, Clyde thinks that a failure to conquer America (which has adopted nuclear and sustainable energy) would be his biggest regret. He plans to change history by stealing prototype time machines from Stanford University's quantum physics lab, travel back to the 1970s, and eliminate the Vigilantes to ensure OMAR's supremacy.

V8 Arcade is the sequel to the coolest veichular combat game of all-time, unfortunately for us, the game is only available for purchase on Xbox Live because it was developed exclusively for Xbox 360.
Vigilante 8 Arcade is a remake of Vigilante 8, with some elements and features of the original game, also including an online arcade mode for up to eight players.
Eight characters are available at the beginning of the game, similar to the original Vigilante 8, each with five different colors to choose from. There is also an enabling character and DLC with more characters. Once the player has completed story mode, the original PlayStation 8 Vigilante 8 vehicle model will be unlocked and playable in all game modes.
To enable the codes, go to "Options", then "Game Status", select any character and simultaneously press "L1 + R1" (PS1) or "LT + RT" Dreamcast).

In PS1 it is also possible to play the levels of the old V8, for that, in the arcade mode choose any car and enter any level, already within level pause the game and open the console cover, insert the original V8 disc and wait for the game to inform you that it has successfully loaded. Once you've done that, open the cover again, replace the v82 disk and exit the current level, and now when playing again in arcade mode, the levels of the original v8 will be available (levels will only be available while the console is on).
During gameplay it is important to do as much damage as possible to the opponent, so you can use some tricks that cause damage at least twice as much as that caused by ordinary weapons, using only a few commands when you are with they.
The numbers represent how much ammo the special trick consumes.
