PROJECT CARS 2

The first PROJECT CARS game first launched globally in 2015 and then in Japan a year later changes the way gamers think about racing simulations. As a racing game made by gamers for gamers, PROJECT CARS is known to offer the most racetracks in any racing game and by using science, the cars offered in-game behaves just like reality, giving them a clear reason why it became an award-wining phenomenon as the fruit of Bandai Namco and Slightly Mad Studios' labor. With the original PROJECT CARS's success, the highly-anticipated sequel has arrived and it wants to give this year's racing games a run for their money.

PROJECT CARS 2 is the long-awaited sequel to the award-winning real racing simulation made by the folks from Bandai Namco Entertainment and Slightly Mad Studios and this game promises to be even more real than the last game with the largest roster of racetracks offered in a racing game, a wide selection of cars to master, and new ways to enjoy this game.

Before getting your hands on this latest masterpiece, let's get to know about the key factors of PC2. One such factor is the LiveTrack 3.0, which gives most (but not all) racetracks a more realistic approach. From dynamic time and weather changes, not to mention seasonal changes, driving on your favorite track just got even more realistic than ever, meaning extreme mastery through different conditions is a must because when the roads get slippery or dark, it's important that you need to pay close attention not just to the car you're driving and the track you're on but also on the ongoing conditions you might face.

Because PC2 has the most racetracks than any other racing simulator games known to many, you can expect new additions to the monstrous track roster including COTA, Fuji Speedway, Daytona International Raceway, Knockhill, including the Mercedes-Benz Driving Events Ice Track as well. From tarmac, gravel, snow, technical, oval, kart track, every racetrack adapts to the ever-changing condition due to LiveTrack 3.0, giving players more reason to hone their driving skills while aiming to become the top racers.

As tracks became the real heroes of the PROJECT CARS 2, we must never forget a wide variety of cars to master; be it road cars, open wheelers, LMPs, rally cars, touring cars, any kind of cars you might come across. In addition to the star cars of the game such as McLaren's brand new 720S, PROJECT CARS 2 introduces the best of cars from Porsche and Ferrari, making this game even more interesting than the last one. Hey, since there's the Algarve racetrack, how about recreating that Grand Tour episode using the P1, the 918, and the LaFerrari?

Back to the important bits, PROJECT CARS 2 features a revised Career Mode where players can master different regions of motorsports and because motorsport is the main focus of the game, you can't just keep the cars on your own, only your racing progress is your progression and in Career Mode, you can progress your career your way by taking on six tiers of motorsports from beginner-friendly ones to the more established ones that will challenge the very limits of your career.

Before the race, you are introduces to the new Race Engineer feature where you can fine tune your machine under the engineer's recommendations or tweak it by themselves. You can alter its gear changes, suspension, brakes, LSDs, any mechanical bits to your liking and depending on your setup, the difference between a win and a defeat lies in one car's configuration so you have to be smart to deal with fine-tuning your machines before heading on the track.

And finally, the more important bit, broadcast and eSports and for PC2, they manages to tick them off just right and not only these features would benefit every organizer hosting their own PC2 races on a shed but also the more established eSports outlets. As for online gaming, it features a license system that pairs drivers not just by their skill but by their behavior as well, truly separating the men from the boys while experiencing what real racing is all about.

Although not one of the best racing games to try out for this year, PROJECT CARS 2 is by any means the most ultra-realistic racing game to try this fall and with LiveTrack 3.0, ith the largest roster of racetracks offered in a racing game, a wide selection of cars to master, and new ways to enjoy this game, there's a key reason why you shouldn't ignore a racing game that holds a special place not just for racing game fans but for Bandai Namco fans everywhere and here's hoping that their collaboration will keep on going until they gave up the ghost.
