PC2 Project CARS GO Confirmed for Mobile Release

[Paul Jeffrey]

Slightly Mad Studios have partnered up with US publisher Gamevil to announce a mobile version of the popular Project CARS franchise is incoming...

With both Project CARS and Project CARS 2 turning out to be commercial successes for Slightly Mad Studios, the British developers have made the call to turn their hand to mobile gaming, teaming up with Gamevil to announce Project CARS GO is in development.

Speaking of the new partnership, SMS CEO Ian Bell had the following to say:

"Alongside Gamevil, Project CARS GO will put players in the driver’s seat to experience the adrenaline pumping racing game in a whole new way,”

“The racing genre has a large, dedicated fan base, who are going to be stomping the gas pedal and burning rubber very soon.”
​

Few details of the new chapter in the Project CARS franchise have yet to be revealed, however of interesting note is the fact that this new title will be the first foray into the world of racing for Gamevil, a publisher well versed in the world of mobile gaming with the likes of Monster Warlord, MLB Perfect Inning Live and Punch Hero already to its credit.

More news will follow when it becomes available...

Project CARS GO is expected to release on mobile devices sometime during 2018.

Actually, there will be no titling. This is a totally new concept for mobile racing.

Blockchain assisted self-driving racing game?

Only thing i fear is if game companies make more money making mobile game and decide its not worth making games for pc and consoles anymore

Where did you get those pics from??

It does indeed. How did you come about these?

I got those screens from this website - https://www.apk3.com/soft/263259.html

I have not heard from them neither. If the list of their games on their homepage is complete, then they do not seem to have any experience with racing games: https://www.gamevil.com/game

Having worked for a global app development house for a couple of years I can tell you that not having experience in that specific field isn't necessarily a bad thing. Providing they get the right people in to look after the racing/driving elements then the experience from other genres could produce some neat solutions.

Finally, the platform that's adapted perfectly fine to pCARS physics!

snidey muppets out from under their rocks I see. Give it a break lads, it's pathetic.

Personally I'd prefer it if SMS concentrate on getting the main games as good as they can possibly be, although if extra revenue is mainly plowed back into the main games then I'll be happier with the prospect. The games are damn good it's just getting that overall quality level up and iron out the problems.

Got my simrig ready!

 

[sipon]

Only one of those

You can steer by tilting your head

Don't laugh! we have this control scheme in our motorbike VR game "V-Racer Hoverbike", it works really well and it's really immersive! (https://store.steampowered.com/app/668430/VRacer_Hoverbike/ ) . We use head positional tracking instead of just tilting...which for sure make the difference...

What a waste of resources, they should fix PC2 and its terrible AI

 

[David Wright]

funny that Project Cars 2 is considered a commercial success. On the PC side, it only has approx 20% of the sales of the first game (per Steamspy). Project cars (PC1) sold approx 1,000,000 copes and Project Cars 2 peaked at 200,000 copies. .

Again you compare sales of a game over 30 months with another on sale for only 6 months. PCARS sold less than 250,000 copies on steam in its first 6 months, so PCARS2 is not far behind. After 2 years AC had sold 250,000 copies and after 4 years it had sold 600,000 copies (steam only) - you can't ignore how long a title has been on sale.

Mobile is the platform where they belong.

 

[SockyNoob]

Oh boy............maybe it'll be like Real Racing 3? But I just don't see a full blown sim happening on mobile. Unless they implement controllers and stuff or if you're insane, wheels on a damn phone. I dunno man, this seems like a dumb idea. There's a reason why racing games on mobile are kinda bad.

well they are not the one doing the conversion, so it won't distract them too much anyhow

i for one cant wait for this. The mobile gpus and cpus are a lot more capable that what people think. Look at Pubg on mobile. it looks almost as good as the pc version. and its a full fledged game. real racing also looks great. No one should be expecting to have a full sim on a phone. at least not yet. but it can still look and feel great. Especially for people who are always on the move and dont have time to be strapped to a computer/pc all day
