Gameplay

Mission structure in Driver '76 resembles that of Driver: Parallel Lines, with driving playing a key role while shooting also remains present. Most missions are driving-based, though some involve shootouts or sequences where Ray sits in the back of a car and shoots at enemies. The game contains 27 missions grouped into 6 chapters, rewarding the player with money, cars, or weapons upon completion. Optional side missions include delivering, track racing, and demolition derbies. Missions and the vehicle garage are accessed through a single navigatable menu rather than a fully playable open world, though free roaming is available. Driver '76 also features ad hoc multiplayer modes. The game uses comic-styled illustrations instead of cinematic cutscenes, giving it a comic-book feel unique among Driver games.
