New Project Cars 2 Trailer And Details Revealed
If Project Cars 2 is the racing game you’re looking forward to most this year, we now have a few details which might well pique your interest.
First up, there’s a new trailer, featuring “‘work in progress in-game footage” and showcasing a variety of cars including various GT3 machines, an Aston Martin Vulcan and the new Mercedes-AMG GT3. On that subject, PC2 will have over 170 licensed cars, well over double the amount of the original game.
The whole wet weather thing - one of Project Cars’ biggest strengths - returns, and as well as wet/dry tarmac you’ll also be able to drive on gravel, mud, dirt and ice. The latter feature is shown in the trailer via a sideways-heavy appearance from a Mercedes-AMG C63, and it looks like tremendous fun. The team is also claiming to have the “widest variety of motorsports,” having now added Rallycross and Indycar to the list.
Elsewhere, PC2 is also promising over 60 tracks, full VR and 12K HDR support (PC only for that detail, obviously), plus a 24 hour dynamic weather cycle.
So, when will you be able to enjoy all this? We still don’t have a definitive date, but Slightly Mad Studios does say the game will be here “late 2017” on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
For now, here are some screen shots to drool over…
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

WE WANT CARS 3 DAMNIT!😤
One of the proposed ad bullet points: Now with physics!
Still no Ferrari? :(((((
I think there is Ferrari, hopefully
I think there is Ferrari, Hopefully
There is, theres a picture of a LaF with the holy trinity
Spa 24hrs was a better song for the intro imo
All i care is that they’ve sorted the old NFS Shift physics
Oh look, project ripoff with crappy physics 2 is here…
Nah, Assetto Corsa is the best racing simulation game.
While I do admit, it looks cool and very fun, I will be waiting until after launch to pick this one up. After the shitshow launch for PC1, I can’t be bothered to hop all over this one.
Yo I would have thought that was a real picture.
Man I wish I had a good graphics card.

How come no-one has mentioned iRacing.
IRacing is the most exciting racing experience I’ve had outside of real life, by far.
Its expensive
As someone who regularly races in iRacing, this is why:
1) It’s expensive at first glance. (Outside of the subscription, there are many ways to drive the costs down people!)
2) It’s lack of cars.
3) It’s one of the most hardcore sims on the market i.e. It’s not a pick up and race type of game. You have to have a real level of commitment to the sim to make any headway, and the competition can be downright fierce and unapologetic.
Other people like to also mention the physics i.e. tire model or lack of feel in the FFB, but I honestly think most of those people haven’t driven a real car against the clock. I will concede that the tire model is off a bit when it comes to over the limit feel in most cars, but it is getting better every year.
Simply put, it’s not a casual game, and so it just isn’t liked, nor as well known as a game like pCars, or GT, or Forza.
