It appears that Slightly Mad Studios is currently working on the sequel to Project CARS 2. Slightly Mad’s Ian Bell has confirmed that the team is working on the next part in the Project CARS series, which will most likely be called Project CARS 3, though he did not reveal any additional details.
As Ian Bell said:
“You heard it here first. There will be a new pCARS, it’s signed. I can’t tell you anything but don’t hold your breath on timings. We plan to blow anything else, planned by anyone else, out of the water… That will take a while.”
When fans asked about the platforms for which this new Project CARS game will come out or whether it will be a current-gen title, Ian Bell replied by saying that he can’t reveal anything more at this point.
Our guess is that Project CARS 3 will be a cross-platform game that could come out in 2020. Still, we are merely guessing here so don’t take this for granted. Either way, Slightly Mad Studios is working on Project CARS 3 so it remains to be seen whether it will be able to top the previous title and whether it will be able to beat its on-going competitors!

FYI Project Cars 2 is currently in the $12 monthly Humble Bundle with Just Cause 3 XXL Edition.
I love PCars 2. I just wish there was more meat to the single player campaign. I miss the feeling of progress I got playing the Gran Turismo series as a kid. Starting with a cheap banger and working my way up.
Same, was so much more satisfying then being given supercars from the beginning.
That why games like Gran Turismo and Forza are here. For gamers who want that type of race progression.
I haven’t played GT since 4, but Forza’s kind of gone the opposite direction in 7 it seems.
You still unlock cars and win in-game currency. It hasn’t changed much from that formula.
Very much this.
Racing games have lacked any real feeling of progression for a along time.
The progression in a racing sims like Project CARS, Assetto Corsa or rFactor is improving your lap times at any given circuit.
With Bandai behind it I think PC2 could’ve managed a career mode similar to Gran Turismo.
Sure but the focus of a racing sim on the PC isn’t to unlock cars and win in-game currency to buy and collect more things, it’s to improve lap times and eventually race in professional online racing leagues. This is what caters to the PC Gamer. Gran Turismo has been around for nearly 25 years, and is just now with its latest release trying to join the online (pro) racing ranks. But GT Sport online still caters to a very different kind of virtual racer – the console gamer.
I can see the allure of that, but honestly that kind of thing isn’t enough to keep me playing. I like a good racing game from time to time, but I’m not a huge fan really. Those like me need a little something extra.

100% Agree!!
What you are referring to is an RPG for racing games. Racing sims aren’t about that kind of gaming. Racing games like Gran Turismo and Forza where you collect cars for your garage are that kind of racing game.
“fans asked about the platforms for which this new Project CARS game will come out”
Do you guys not have phones? ?
Seems likely it wiil release when the gen of consoles arrive if they want to “blow everyone else out of the water”.
Great news DSOGaming . Project Cars 2 is one of the best racing games of all time and of all generations in my opinion with spectacular graphics in the PC version, the only problem of the game in my view is the simplicity of the single player campaign mode that despite being fun is very simple with static menus and very archaic and without animations, witch the selection of cars with those shameful menus, Shift 1 and 2 from the same producer unlike Project Cars 1 and 2 have the menus neat and an excellent single player campaign with a unique sense of progression !!!
I agree with David Dewis in the comments, We want a big single player campaign “à la Gran Turismo” !!!
