Firebugs is a 2002 racing video game developed by Attention to Detail and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation. As it was released late into the console's lifespan and the PlayStation 2 had been out for 2 years, it was only released in Europe.

The player takes control of one of five vehicles in a futuristic race where speeds can reach over 400 miles per hour.^[1] Weapons and defences are used to help the player win races. The game modes include 1 player mode where the player can race on 25 tracks in 5 distinct worlds (Archipelago, Droid Gardens, Sky Dunes, Sky Port and Cloud City).^[1] There is 2 player mode which consists of the same basics as in one player mode.

The game's soundtrack includes music from hip-hop group Bomfunk MCs, whose songs "We R Atomic" and "Put Ya Hands Up" are featured. These are of note because the album Burnin' Sneakers was not released in the UK,^{[citation needed]} and so the songs have correlation to this game for many UK fans.

Firebugs received positive reviews in the Evening Chronicle,^[2] the Birmingham Mail,^[3] and the Waikato Times.^[4]
