Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero is a racing game developed by Genki for PlayStation 2. Despite its name, it is set between Tokyo Xtreme Racer 2 and Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3, and has enhanced sound and graphics. The game was released in Japan as Shutokou Battle 0, but was also a limited release in North America. The game was released in a PAL version in Europe and Australia under the title Tokyo Xtreme Racer (not to be confused with the Dreamcast title of the same name).

This is the first game in the series that has been released on a platform other than the Dreamcast. Zero was to originally be released on the Dreamcast, but was then cancelled and moved to the PlayStation 2. The Tokyo Xtreme Racer series has produced a total of six games, the first four being U.S. localizations of the first four Shutokou Battle series games and the final two being U.S. localizations of the first and third Kaido Battle series games.
