“We wanted to relaunch this great franchise because there’s no real equivalent at the moment. “We developed the new Test Drive Unlimited concept by keeping the DNA of the game, but also evolving the gameplay and game modes to make them more modern and more in line with current trends and what today’s players find fun,” he said in a live stream.
According to creative director Jarniou, the game has only been in development for “several months.” In a trailer released on Tuesday, little is shown of the title and so far there’s no confirmation of target platforms or a release date. Players will compete against each other in the Solar Crown, a competition with “mysterious stakes”, to elevate their character’s status within the community, it said.
According to KT Racing’s publisher Nacon, Solar Crown will retain the DNA of the series, with “beautiful cars” and “the joy of driving around a luxurious island world recreated at 1:1 scale.”
