Unlike Porsche Unleashed, the gameplay consists of arcade-style races and police pursuits. The diverse customization options, the special weather effects, and the day-night cycle seen in the last two installments have been dropped. Now players can only change the paint and they can still watch replays as in the original Hot Pursuit, with the ability to multiply how fast the replay plays from 1/8 the normal speed to 4 times the normal speed. | Unlike Porsche Unleashed, the gameplay consists of arcade-style races and police pursuits.

The police in Hot Pursuit 2 can call in backup, roadblocks, and spikestrips like in previous games, but they can now also call in a helicopter. The helicopter will drop explosive barrels in an attempt to stop the racer. In the PS2 version of the game, it is possible for spikestrips to be hidden in the barrels. When being chased by the police, there is a bar that will appear above the rearview mirror. When it is blue, you are evading the police, but when it is red, the police think they can still catch you. Below the bar will be one or more stars. These stars represent your heat level. However, the heat level will be restricted depending on the difficulty level selected before the race. Beginner starts at one star and only goes up to three stars. Intermediate starts at two stars and goes up to four. Expert starts at three stars and goes up to five. | |||
