Ridge Racer Type 4 is a racing game developed exclusively for the Sony Playstation. The fourth title in the Ridge Racer series features new visuals, powered by goraud-shaded polygons, giving each car and track a more refined appearance, while keeping the same arcade gameplay popularized by the first game of the series.

The focus of the game is the Real Racing Roots '99, Ridge City's three heat, seven race championship, with the grand finale in a speedway during New Year's Eve. The player starts by choosing one of the four teams available, each with its own story and motivations.

The player can choose from four teams: Micro Mouse Mappy , Pac Racing Team , Racing Team Solvalou , and Dig Racing Team . The American team, Dig Racing Team , has fallen into financial difficulties, with team director Robert Chrisman struggling to provide the driver with a car capable of out-handling opponents.

The player can also choose from four car makers: Lizard , Assoluto , Age Solo , and Terrazi . The "Grip" cars, offered by Age Solo and Terrazi , require more breaking and careful trajectories, but are easier to control during turns.

The player earns (and so, unlocks for free play) cars by completing races. Final placement defines how good the car will be. By scraping through the first two heats, sponsors will be unwilling to invest in the team, but winning all races allows the driver to reach the Shooting Hoops speedway with the fastest car.

Ridge Racer Type 4 also includes an extra disk, featuring the original Ridge Racer in higher resolution. For a time, the game was also sold as a bundle along Namco's innovative Jogcon controller.
