Kika in den första Project Motor Racing-trailern

Ian Bell och hans gamla kollegor från Project Cars-tiden arbetar ju för fulla muggar med kommande racingsimulatorn Project Motor Racing som tydligen ska vara en andlig uppföljare till GTR 2 och kommer att fokusera på 2004-2005 års GT1-säsong vilket låter förträffligt, enligt oss. Idag visades det upp i form av en första officiell trailer som du kan kika på nedan.

Saxat ur den officiella pressreleasen:
From today's radical LMDh hypercars to iconic legends from motorsport's rich legacy, each car is meticulously recreated and licensed from the world's top car manufacturers like Lamborghini, Aston Martin, and Audi. Each class has been curated to ensure definitive grids of motor racing heroes from today and yesterday, from LMP to turn-of-the-century GTs, from today's GT3s to 1970s sportscars. With action-packed 4-class racing across 27 scanned, global tracks, Project Motor Racing is a motorsport-first simulation.

From sim racers to first-time racers, Project Motor Racing boasts game modes for everyone: from Single Player Career Mode to in-depth Online Racing, from fun leaderboards to packed Full Race Weekends. An immersive racing experience will put drivers into the cauldron of a racing cockpit with visible G-forces, heat-haze, braking forces, and dirt, alongside sound design that captures motor racing's true ferocity. True2Track will allow racers to experience the authenticity of every track with dynamic weather conditions, adaptive racing & drying line, and a 24-hour day/night cycle.

Project Motor Racing will also feature sim racing's newest physics engine, built from the ground-up. Running on the GIANTS game engine, it delivers unmatched handling realism at 720Hz, with more natural, non-linear throttle control alongside precise FFB taken directly from the tie rod, and out-of-the-box peripheral optimisation. And with the "Factory Driver Program", every car's handling is painstakingly tested and approved by the world's top racing pros to assure authentic handling precision.

"This is the next gear for GIANTS Software: Moving forward, we will be recognized not only as the creators of Farming Simulator but also as the publisher of Project Motor Racing," says Christian Ammann, CEO at GIANTS Software. "Our strong collaboration with Straight4 gives me full confidence that we'll deliver an exceptional experience for all sim racing enthusiasts!"

Ian Bell, CEO at Straight4 Studios, noted: "This is not about driving. It's about racing. With our streamlined approach and what we consider to be the most authentic handling model we've ever created, Project Motor Racing is both a nod to our genre's rich legacy and a big step into the next era of simulation."

Project Motor Racing will be released on PC, PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S this fall.
