Could be Giants own engine they use for Farming Simulator. Ian did say at one time that he'd like detailed grass and foliage movement as the cars passed, so he'd be onto a winner with that. 🙂Ok. Whats the new engine? They said it will be changed from UE5?
In VR 🔥So this is just Project Cars 4 in all but name
In VR 🔥
(Psvr2🤞)
Liked GT Revival better. But at the end of the day, the name doesn’t matter. Always thought Project Cars sounded a bit funny or exactly that, a project, just something we’re messing around with.Now Project Motor Racing

IIRC, in one of the latest interviews, he stated what they're working on is essentially PCARS 4, he said it will be like PCARS 2, not like 3.As far as what has been shown and said, I wouldn't come to that conclusion. Seemingly different everything from the Project Cars series all but having the word Project in the name. It sounds like he's done that already and is on to a different path.
I guess I'd look at it this way; Led Zeppelin makes different albums, some may be better than others but it's still all Led Zeppelin.
All in all, what differs Project Cars from any of the other sims? Pick cars, go on track, race them. AC is the same. rF2 is the same. You could argue that PC2 even had a better career than AC (which would be interesting if he actually does go the career route in this).
In the aspect that PC2 was a sim and PC3 was not. He said that it will be more of a spiritual successor to the GTR series, hence the first name this project was. With the direction of the pictures being shown, different eras of GT1 cars and Group C cars, I would be happy.IIRC, in one of the latest interviews, he stated what they're working on is essentially PCARS 4, he said it will be like PCARS 2, not like 3.
Honestly I preferred GT Revival myself. But I believe there's several factors at play that may be what's brought around this decision. First, the scope of the game has expanded from the original vision. That and brand recognition, avoiding confusion with another popular franchise, etc. Project Motor Racing does work well, especially when you consider that with PC1 & particularly 2, they almost weren't about the cars, they were about motorsport, if that makes sense?Liked GT Revival better.

I agree with you. I think we will get a better feel for the name once they have their showcase at GamesconHonestly I preferred GT Revival myself.

I'd say a Diablo but not quite sure - though it seems to have the same kind of tail light assembly like the VT I saw Sunday at a Cars & Coffee.what is the car in the background behind the lister Storm?
A Diablo.what is the car in the background behind the lister Storm?
What are you even talking about? What's dead now?Ian Bell carrying the name Project for a car game since Project Gotham Racing is dead
And addsThe name Project Motor Racing will make a lot more sense post-gamescom when certain details of the overall direction of the sim will be clarified.
So let's wait and see.However, if you’re familiar with GIANTS Software’s massive Farming Simulator franchise, you probably already have a good sense of where this is all going. And you’d be exactly right, too. The new name represents that direction...
I sure hope so. I know Sony has seemingly washed its hands of VR but it sounds like these guys have developed the game with VR from the jump rather than it needing to be added after the fact, so perhaps there’s a chance????VR you say? Surely they will be doing a PSVR2 version? And just in time for the PS5 Pro too.
