Driver: Speedboat Paradise was a free-to-play mobile game released on iOS and Android sometime in December 2014. It is unknown when the game was removed but it was possibly removed in late 2016.
Unlike other games, the game focuses on speedboat races. The game also makes use of in-app purchases. In the game, you can race against other speedboats, customize and upgrade your speedboat and "bring down the speedboat mafia".

Trivia[]
This is the only game in the Driver series where Tanner appears but is not the protagonist.
Driver Speedboat Paradise is the only Driver game that features a speedboat as a drivable vehicle.
This game seems to be hated by fans for a couple of reasons:
This game is the only game in the Driver series to have microtransactions (in-app purchases) although they're not mandatory to progress through the game.
The game was probably removed due to lack of people buying the in-app purchases.
This game strays pretty far from the original Driver games, which was met with outrage by most fans. While the console Driver spinoffs feature an altered background of Tanner, this one is completely irrelevant to both the main games and the spinoffs.
This is also the only game which is not part of the open world genre.
