Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown is hotly anticipated by fans of open-world racing titles, but they may have to show some more patience: It looks like the game will be pushed back to 2024 - more info on the title is imminent, however.

Initially announced to be available in 2022, TDU Solar Crown had been pushed back until 2023 - and according to publisher Nacon's recently released financial report, the game has yet again been re-scheduled, this time for the end of Q1 in 2024, as OverTake found out.
Fans of the series will likely be groaning about this, but viewing the additional delay in a positive light, this should mean that Solar Crown is going to be released in a polished state rather than having been rushed. With the usual Christmas sales in mind, it would have been easy to hold on to 2023 and force the new TDU out in time.
Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown is set to feature an accurate recreation of Hong Kong Island as its setting and will feature a more realistic driving model than its predecessor Test Drive Unlimited 2. The island is going to feature several different environments to encourage exploration and incorporate multiple driving and racing disciplines.
