Burnout Paradise - Official Paradise City Map

Posted on 23 December 2007 by TheFluffyFist

BurnoutParadiseLogoCriteron Games have recently released the official route map of Paradise City. Now we can see what’s beyond those pesky concrete barriers that you hit all to often in the Burnout Paradise demo. All I’ve got to do now is memorise all those routes and I’m away. Easy.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the Paradise City map:


Burnout Paradise - Official Map

Those avid TAG readers will notice that the map shown above has changed somewhat since we first revealed it nearly a year ago. Here’s what the Paradise city map looked like 12 months ago:

Amongst all the route changes, large chunks of the map have been chopped, including the airport. Did you have to cut the airport, Criterion? I quite fancied going all GTA 3 and driving recklessly between all the planes. Boo. Anyway, the map is still pretty big, as anyone whose played the Burnout Paradise demo will testify.

You can download a hi-res version of the map from Criterion’s Burnout Paradise Downloads page.

Update 2nd Mar 08: Here’s a great interactive Burnout Paradise map. It contains all the locations of the super jumps, smashes, billboards etc.

Burnout Paradise is out now on Xbox 360 and Playstation 3

  3. Matt Says:

    Rumour has it that the next upgrade for this game will involve the map getting bigger. It will be ABSOLUTELY FREE !! This is not a joke. Feel free to look up info about the up and coming new map edits for the game.

  4. TheFluffyFist Says:

    Hi Matt, yep you’re correct.
    Alex Ward (game’s producer) from Criterion has said on the official forums that the expansions will be free. Yay.

    I’ve still not picked this game up yet, but then again I’ve not finished the last one yet - if I see this cheap, is it still worth picking up - a worthy successor?

  9. TheFluffyFist Says:

    I picked it up second hand for around 30 quid. Lets just say it’s different to all the previous Burnouts. Looks fantastic, but slightly annoying that you just can redo a challenge if you fail it.

    Also navigating whilst racing at Burnout speed is a real nightmare!

    @TheFluffyFist

    Did you mean that you can’t just redo a challenge?

  11. Zath Says:

    The open nature to the game is the main thing that was concerning me, it’s very much an arcade racer - not sure if I want to be “immersed” in the game world / city - I just want to race fast and crash! ;)

  12. TheFluffyFist Says:

    @Weefz

    Yeah, you can re-do a challenge, but you have to go back to the traffic lights where the challenge started from. This is a bit of a pain when you’ve just raced from one end of the map to the other!

    @Zath

    Race fast and crash, yep, that’s pretty much what happens to me alot.
