Accessed by driving into "Eden game icon" in the northern Makapu'u Beach at around 60 kph or 40 mph, which is the island seen in the intro.

This only exists in the Xbox 360 and Windows versions. It can be accessed on PSP/PS2 via modding, but it is unfinished.

Hidden Vehicles#

If any vehicles are missing any game files, the game will use the "Eden" default car/bike placeholer model instead.

Cut Vehicles#

This page or section has one or more broken YouTube links. Please find an archived version of the video(s) or a suitable replacement.

Various vehicles are referenced in the game's files in the Windows version, including unused slots for the Xbox 360-exclusive Volume 6 pack vehicles. Most of these are accessible in game by editing the "GameXenon.ini" file on the early Xbox 360 build.

To do: This section needs at least one screenshot per car, if possible.
