BTCC The Game | Coming 2024

https://twitter.com/btccgame

Only 26 years after the best racing game EVER, TOCA 2.

The game is being developed by "Motorsport Games" - https://motorsportgames.com/

Devs have confirmed they are leveraging rFactor 2 and Kartcraft code for the game so take that how you will. More Sim than arcade I expect.

It is sad that a British Touring Cars game is being developed by Americans BUT better than no BTCC game at all?

I have little hope BUT at least I get to reminisce about the original Codemasters TOCA series, gaming motoracing nirvana.

Wonder if you'll be able to drive the 'Omega' Volvo 850 Estate and the 'Valvoline' Mk.1 Mondeo?

Motorsport games = Swerve

They are a dodgy company who are pretty loathed within the sim racing community for hoovering up lots of exclusive licenses (BTCC, WEC, Indycar) despite having a terrible track record when it comes to releasing games.

At best it will be rFactor 2 with BTCC skin, same goes for their forthcoming Le Mans game.

I used to love Toca 2 back in the day. Played that to death on the PS1. That and Colin Mcrae rally.

Either it's going to be crap or the more likely it will just end up being DLC for Rf2.

They have everything to dominate the sim/racing world....... apart from the knowledge of how to make a good game.

Shame its MSG, they are snapping up all the licenses but the games are generally poor. They stopped Iracing using the Indycar name and having events such as the Indy 500 recently. They keep threatening to go bust, but it doesn't happen.

I have two words for you: "Sending liveries".

Am I missing something here That press release is from a year ago and I believe most of the content is now available in Rfactor 2 as was planned. What's the new news, that a actual game is to be released in 2024?
