The open-worldracing and conspicuous consumption of Test Drive Unlimited will return after nearly a decade in a brand new game, publishers Nacon introduced right now. Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown will vroom off to a different island to race round and put on designer garments. While collection creators Eden Games are long-closed, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown is being made beneath the attention of Alain Jarniou, who beforehand labored on the collection because the game director of TDU2. They don’t have a lot to indicate of the game for now however hey, it’s coming.
“Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown retains the DNA of the series, which is based on a love of beautiful cars and the joy of driving around a luxurious island world recreated at 1:1 scale,” Nacon say. “Players will compete against each other in the Solar Crown, a competition with mysterious stakes, to elevate their character’s status within the community.”
Yes, you’ll as soon as once more be buying flash vehicles like Ferraris in addition to luxurious clothes and accessories on your character to put on. TDU traditionally has a bizarre tone, which I feel is… the fantasy of turning into a reckless playboy who lives a lifetime of quick vehicles, island resorts, events, and designer items? The video game equal of wealthy individuals TikTookay. Sure, a great deal of games have these parts, however TDU2 specifically appeared aspirational about breaking into the next social class. I’m wondering how a lot that has modified.
Solar Crown is being made by Nacon’s KT Racing studio, who’re behind the WRC rally games, the Isle Of Man motorcycle ones, and V-Rally. Test Drive creators Eden Games shut down in 2013 following a number of turbulent years together with mass redundancies, which had prompted workers to go on strike against owners Atari. Evidently Nacon (previously BigBen) have picked the rights up since then.
No phrase but on when Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown will launch. Jarniou stated they’ve been engaged on it “for several months” so it could nonetheless be early in improvement.
