PC1 Project Cars: Lots of Tracks Trailer

[Alex Franchini]

Bandai Namco have released a new YouTube trailer for their upcoming multiplatform title Project Cars.

In the video above you can take a look at the Slightly Mad Studios-developed game's track roster, along with some footage showcasing dynamic weather and night racing.

Something that should be noted is, once again, the absence of the Nordschleife and the Nurburgring GP from the circuit list. Puzzling, considering it's already in-game with the name Eifelwald.

Anyway Bandai Namco and Slightly Mad Studios are planning on revealing more circuits ("still to be announced!") in the near future, so stay tuned.

Project Cars will be out in "mid-May" on PC, PS4 and Xbox One. The latest trailer shows the Wii U logo as well, but it's not known yet if it'll be released at the same time as the other versions.

Oh okay, so it'll probably be out sometime in September once they finalise all the licenses to the tracks they have in game but don't currently own... lol.

Curious why they don't call it "Monaco" or "Monte Carlo" since that's a geographic location.....

Not sure, what build you guys are playing but the Nürburgring (GP and Nordschleife) are in the game under their correct names.

All the tracks currently ingame will be included upon release. The licensing talks with the Nürburgring are close to being successfully finished afaik.

Not sure about the Monaco license though. Maybe they didn't get the license and are going for a "inspired by" track, as they are with Sakitto (Suzuka). Although the "Azure Circuit" does not differ from the real Monaco track layout at all...

Edit: Also, there's no footage of Spa as they are not allowed to show that before the track owner is pleased. They did secure the license but we will probably not see that circuit in sny of the trailers before release.
