Taxi Chaos 2 is officially on the road, launching on Xbox Series X|S for £20.99 and throwing players back behind the wheel in a city where human cabbies are no longer top dog.
This time around, the streets of San Valeda are dominated by aggressive AI taxi bots, turning every shift into a battle for fares, time, and survival.
A City That Fights Back
Building on the arcade foundations of the original, Taxi Chaos 2 leans harder into chaos, pressure, and player choice, delivering a fast-paced driving experience that thrives on unpredictability.
San Valeda never sits still. Roadworks appear without warning, hazardous fog rolls in, Taxi Bot exclusion zones block key routes, and hidden shortcuts can suddenly become your best friend. Each shift reshuffles the deck, ensuring that no two runs ever feel the same.
The real threat, however, comes from the AI taxis themselves. These bots don’t just compete for fares – they ram, block, and actively disrupt your routes, growing more aggressive as you progress. Whether you avoid them or take them head-on is entirely up to you.
Every shift is timed, and every decision matters. Players can chase quick point-to-point fares for fast cash, or take on riskier jobs involving fragile cargo, hazardous routes, or oversized loads. Some contracts even alter how your cab handles, adding extra weight or strapping rockets to the back, forcing you to adapt on the fly.
Arcade Driving With Personality
Taxi Chaos 2 keeps things firmly in arcade territory, offering three distinct vehicle styles:
- Heavy – Built to smash through traffic and chaos
- Sport – Focused on speed and sharp handling
- Drift – Designed to carry momentum through tight corners
Each cab can be cosmetically customised, letting your vehicle reflect your driving style as much as your approach to the city.
Beyond looks, players can research and equip abilities to suit their playstyle. Utility skills unlock shortcuts or help manage hazards, while combat-focused abilities allow you to push back against the Taxi Bot menace.
Looking Back At The Original Taxi Chaos
When the original Taxi Chaos launched back in 2021, we awarded it a 3/5, noting:
“Taxi Chaos on Xbox is not Crazy Taxi, not even close, but it does execute the familiar gameplay loop in a competent and functional manner.”
Taxi Chaos 2 appears to embrace that arcade identity more confidently, layering in smarter AI, more varied challenges, and a city that feels far more reactive to how you play.

Back In The Driver’s Seat
Taxi Chaos 2 doesn’t pretend to be a simulation or a nostalgia remake. Instead, it doubles down on frantic arcade driving, aggressive competition, and a city designed to keep players constantly reacting. With AI taxi bots ruling the streets and every shift offering new surprises, San Valeda is a battleground where only the fastest and smartest drivers thrive.
Now available on Xbox Series X|S through the Xbox Store, Taxi Chaos 2 is ready to test whether you can outdrive the bots, beat the clock, and reclaim the streets one chaotic fare at a time.
