Project CARS 3 promises to be a spiritual successor to Need for Speed Shift


Slightly Mad Studios CEO Ian Bell has stated that the new part in the Project CARS series, Project CARS 3, will be a spiritual successor to Need for Speed Shift. Need for Speed Shift impressed everyone when it came out, especially thanks to its iconic cockpit viewpoint and Ian Bell said that pCars 3 will be more of a spiritual successor to Shift, but with all of the sim goodness everyone appreciate.

As Ian Bell wrote on GTPlanet:

“We’ve learned a lesson here and although we have no intention of reducing content, we know what we need to fix, where we made design decisions that were, let’s call it, ‘sub-optimal’. pCARS3 will be more of a spiritual successor to Shift, but with all of the sim goodness everyone appreciates.”

Apart from the fact that the game is already under development, we don’t have any additional information about it. And since there haven’t been any screenshots or official press releases, we can safely say this racing title won’t be out in 2019 (and most likely not in 2020).

Still, we’ll be sure to keep you posted so stay tuned for more.
