Enhanced editions of Codemasters’ V8 Supercar Race Driver, the number one PlayStation 2 smash hit, will launch for PC and Xbox™, the video game system from Microsoft, on April 4 2003.
Set to be the most dynamic and dramatic circuit racer for PC and Xbox, the new editions are even fiercer than the best-selling PlayStation2 game and will make any driver’s adrenaline race with up to 20 cars tearing up the track simultaneously, six more cars than in the original.
V8 Supercar Race Driver lets players race as a touring car professional in a gaming experience packed with 42 real touring and sports cars, 13 championships and an incredible 38 real-life, internationally renowned, race circuits. The new editions also add a qualifying round to championship races; in Australia's championship players will experience the ‘Shoot out’ qualification system.
When you’ve got up to 20 cars on track at once, motor sport’s most aggressive exhibition of close-contact racing results in spectacular damage and it can all be seen in stunning graphical detail using the Xbox hardware and on PC supporting Direct X 8 compatible graphics cards. Online and network play is also included for V8 Supercar Race Driver’s PC players.
The roar of the cars’ engines and the dramatic story sequences sound better too with support any for surround sound mode up to and including 5.1, the audio features high quality samples, reverberation and environmental audio effects.
V8 Supercar Race Driver is the evolution of racing games, uniquely blending a cast of game characters with the sport’s real-life drivers, locations and championship events.
The game gives players one central character – Ryan McKane – to connect with and wraps the high-speed race action in real-time generated plot-driven cinematic sequences.
V8 Supercar Race Driver will launch for Xbox and PC on April 4 2003. The playable demo, along with additional information, screenshots and in-game footage videos, can be found on the dedicated web site located at: www.codemasters.com/v8racedriver |
