Slightly Mad Studios

Slightly Mad Studios continues to reveal hints and photos of new cars that will greet players of Project CARS 2 when it launches this year. Unlike the last batch of additions, the latest one pursues nothing but high performance, featuring the Ginetta G57-P2, Jaguar F-Type SVR, and McLaren P1 GTR.

One of the strongest features of the upcoming Project CARS 2 is the massive track list. Many of the first game’s circuits are returning, alongside new additions like rally-cross dirt tracks and Japan’s Fuji Speedway. We’ve now got our first full look at the latter, care of the video above.

As the release of Slightly Mad Studios’ Project CARS 2 edges closer and closer with each passing day, the marketing team has taken to the social media channels in full effect, giving us an insight as to what cars are coming into the new sim-racing title.

Earlier this week, Slightly Mad Studios released new details on the “Online Championship” mode in Project CARS 2. This new feature allows players to create a league-style format championship consisting of several rounds. Players will have the ability to set each session’s details, along with the race duration, condition of the track, and schedule.

With the leaked trailer, official trailer and general information blowout, you’d be forgiven for feeling overwhelmed with all the latest coming out about Project CARS 2. Here’s a quick summary of everything we know so far. There’s a lot to get through, so let’s begin!

Now that we’ve formally had the cover removed on Slightly Mad Studios’ Project CARS 2, many YouTube videos showing off the game have been revealed to the public.

After four days of teasing on the Project CARS official Twitter account, Slightly Mad Studios has revealed the first official trailer for the highly-anticipated Project CARS 2. The latest entry in the series, which will launch this year, makes it’s debut in the 60-second video which gives us some more insight into the cars, environments and tracks we can expect from the game.

Following a leaked trailer last week, Project CARS 2 is now being officially teased on the Twitter account for the series. The countdown began on Saturday and it looks like come Wednesday we’ll have some sort of reveal for Slightly Mad Studios’ latest racer, given the cryptic numbers that have been appearing.

It’s the end of an era. For almost as long as we’ve been a website, it’s been understood that Porsche, that most desirable of German marques, was the (more-or-less) exclusive domain of Electronic Arts. Sure, earlier Forza titles had them — and later ones did too, if you paid the extra asking price for DLC — but outside of that, you pretty much had to play a Need For Speed title to drive a car from Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG (to give it its full name).

In a recent interview with Slightly Mad Studios’ Creative Director Andy Tudor during the Red Bull 5G tournament, eSPORTS+CARS’ Tom Brooks learned more about Project Cars 2 and how it will be involved in world-recognized eSports competitions. Andy stressed that a good relationship with major organizer ESL helps, and players won’t have to wait for in-game integration:

The men and women over at Slightly Mad Studios had cause for celebration this week, as their 2015 multi-platform sim racer hit another sales threshold. Project CARS first crossed the seven-figure mark shortly after launch in June 2015, and has now doubled that amount to two million.
