With so many amazing racing games arriving in 2017. However the stars of this game are the cars themselves and it. Project Cars 2 preview Slightly Mad Studios has created a racer that feels truly big budget, with incredible visuals and great handling. It demands perfection, refuses to ease up, and still manages to be friendly.

Sure, some of the backgrounds may be a little Spartan but for the most part, they help in creating a living breathing world. Project Cars 2 is an exquisite racing simulator that makes learning the game almost as much fun as winning a race. The car modelling is extremely detailed and the backgrounds really add to the overall atmosphere. > The future of racing games? Virtual reality and motion rigsīut I’ll qualify this hands-on preview by saying that Project Cars, just like many other recent simulation-biased racing games, will probably require you to invest extra in a wheel and pedals setup (at the least) in order to enjoy it to its full.Įven if Project Cars 2 doesn’t quite match the same levels of geeky simulation offered by titles like iRacing, rFactor (and those using the rFactor engine) or Assetto Corsa, the gameplay here is realistic enough that for maximum control, finesse and enjoyment, you need to be able to make the fine inputs that only a wheel and pedals can offer. Graphically Project Cars 2 looks brilliant on the Xbox One. This is how a follow-up game should be done. But at the same time, some areas of the game, including a few cars, do feel a little like they didn. The sequel feels like the developers took all of that criticism to heart.

You’ll also lock up wheels and understeer off, or overcorrect and find yourself heading rapidly towards a tree, or an armco, or a pit wall, or some other solid object.Īmusingly, I’d just been told that the Project Cars team doesn’t believe a realistic racing game should be punishingly difficult, and to the team’s credit the various driving aids - stability control, ABS, traction control - do turn even the wildest virtual beasts into something you can tame and then use to win the vast variety of different races available to you. So, overall Project Cars 2 is a solid performer and an excellent entry-level sim that, when combined with a racing wheel, is endless fun whilst also providing a realistic and immersive experience that can challenge you to become a better driver. Project CARS 2 claimed to be 'redefining the genre of sim racing' prior to release, and having sunk plenty of hours into getting under the skin of the new title I can say one thing for sure: despite having quite a few compelling positives if you look hard enough at the game, if this is the new definition of sim racing then I'm not entirely sure.

Use a gamepad to play Project Cars 2, Slightly Mad Studios’ upcoming racing game for PC, PS4 and XBox One, and you’ll be thankful for the developers’ new focus on tyre models and driving aids.īecause play without those driving aids and even with more natural, progressive slides, you’ll spin. It was a fantastic experience with a feel all its own.
