The fresh and exiting Volvo S60 Concept headlines the car line up and will be accompanied by several well known Volvo race cars. The players will be able to hammer this variety of Volvo cars around two highly detailed and realistic tracks.

As in all games developed by SimBin this game will deliver a great experience in sound and detail with a fun and challenging game as a cherry on the cake. The game comes with three difficulty levels to appeal to a broad audience, from new comer to the experienced gamer.

The racing game announced in April by Volvo Cars and game development company SimBin can be played with five racing legends in addition to the new Volvo S60 Concept. They are Volvo models that many people will remember from the STCC and BTCC racing series.

Players will be able to choose between the Volvo C30 which is competing in this year's STCC ( Swedish Touring Car Championship), the STCC Volvo S60 that participated a few years ago, the Volvo S40 that participated with notable success in the BTCC (the British Touring Car Championship) the Volvo 850, the estate car that became a legend in the BTCC, and finally a true racing classic, the iconic Volvo 240 Turbo Group A.

There is a choice of two tracks: Gothenburg Eco Drive Arena in Göteborg, Sweden, and Chayaka outside Kiev in the Ukraine. Volvo - The Game is the only virtual racing game in the world to include this Ukrainian track.


The game offers a choice of skill levels: "novice with all the driver assistance technology activated such as ABS brakes, "semi-pro", and finally "pro" where there is no assistance whatsoever.

Hmm, some of those volvo's pictured don't seem to have their headlights on, must be a bug in the game. :p

PK!
 
HAHAHA I find this hilarious for some reason. Downloading now though at over 2MBs!
 
Hoping this will be added into Race07/GTREvo etc soon :)
Would be nice to have it all in one.

It's all about the 850 estate!
 
Not bad not bad, the same SimBin we're used to to but the graphics aren't as sharp as the shots on the site.

Nice to have a go in the older BTCC cars though, can't grumble at free (if you don't count the rabid product placement :p)!
 
Is there a mod scene for Race/GTR? If so, these models will be ripped and on there in an instant. Its just the GTR engine with new models and maps.

But for a free game, cant complain.
 
Anyone else keep getting disconnected from the online part of the game? Started getting decent lap times then it would disconnect me :(
