Teaser in now online (and is disappointing)

The trailer showcased a Range Rover SVR and an Aston Martin DB11. We can also see that the casino is back !
This episode will make us find famous brands like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Koenigsegg, Apollo, Dodge and Bugatti, but we will have to work hard to unlock their best models and their improvements.
And for even more fun, our avatar will also have plenty of customization options, in order to be the most beautiful on the circuit.
The cinematic released today unfortunately do not teach us much more, content to pose the luxurious atmosphere of the experience, and to confirm the presence of the Aston Martin DB11 and the Range Rover Sport.

Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown is now confirmed on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X and the game gives us an appointment in June for more information.

Please be next gen looking. We're half a year into a generation and I haven't seen any racer that looks and feels next-gen. It's depressing.

 

[Dural]

Yeah, this new gen has been really weird, no real next-gen showcases like Forza 5.

 

[LokusAbriss]

TDU1 was great at the time. Maybe they can bring that experience into 2021.

 

[jhjfss]

Anyone know who created this franchise in the 80's?

TBF I haven't seen anything apart from that UE5 demo that looks like next gen, it's the only thing that's making me not having a ps5 from getting truly pissed off

 

[Rudius]

A game like this for PSVR2 would be a dream.

 

[Wonko_C]

Tomorrow is this. Could they be related?

Well to be quite honest we still haven't seen any next gen game that would really impressed me graphically(except unreal 5 engine). Even GT 7 doesn't look that impressive considering PS5 beastly specs

 

[Danknugz]

Fingers crossed for vr support

 

[SpongebobSquaredance]

PEGI 18?????

 

[Tommi84]

My body is ready... to be disappointed.

By my heart wishes to see some next-gen shit. Please give me some next-gen, eye-melting stuff!

My interest just dropped into the single digits.

 

[Certinty]

I’m somewhat excited. I know it will be a fairly budget game but Unlimited was great and far ahead of its time. Unlimited 2 was bad but still fun as well, so as long as this is fun I’m in.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Tomorrow is this. Could they be related?

Urgh. If it's soley that and microtransactions thats me done sadly. TDU 2 was one of my most played games so i'd love to see proper 3.

 

[Klik]

The biggest worry i have about this game is how the physics and ffb is gonna be.


Of course it doesn't have to be and i dont expect it to be like like assetto corsa/iracing which are heavy full sims but something like GT SPORT which is a light sim would be perfect for this game. Its physics is quite decent and on point(its biggest problems is tyre model which has too much grip).

 

[Bernd Lauert]

I religiously played TDU1 as a kid, the game blew my mind back then. Sadly, the sequel was kinda shit. Hope this is gonna be better.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Sadly, the sequel was kinda shit.

Heathen spotted. Any game with Tess, her overlord dad, Miami and that annoying arse mechanic is a god damn winner, for the voice acting alone...

It was shit, I still played it for 50+ hours...

 

[Pantz]

It's likely going to be a CG trailer. I hope to see some kind of location details and general vibes.

 

[Inviusx]

Here is a game I absolutely forgot about until now.

i loved TDU. It created the open world racing genre we have today back in 2006.

Forza Horizon is the king now, but still doesn’t do simple shit like being able to lower your convertible roof or windows. They only just added the variety of missions in FH4 like driving a fast car somewhere with no damage. The big Horizon Goliath races take like 9 minutes, TDU took 40 racing around Oahu.

 

[Birdo]

I'm one of those freaks that prefers TDU2 over the first one (Two whole maps!).

Can't wait to see this. Will keep my fingers crossed that it doesn't look bad

 

[Dr.Morris79]

"You drive like a moron"

 

[acm2000]

the first TDU was jizz worthy, the second, not so much.

 

[Bo_Hazem]

Thx to Reddit user EymanB, we now know that a trailer for TD:SC is coming tomorrow.

The information comes from Youtube and a thumbnail:

The Thumbnail for the trailer showcased a Range Rover SVR and an Aston Martin DB11. The trailer is titled 'Head to Head' and is scheduled to release at 15:00 (Germany) on 21/04/21.

Probably the oldest racing game ever, dating back to early 1980's.

 

[LokusAbriss]

The developers worked on the latest WRC games and those seem to be really good. At least, it should be much better physics wise and therefore much more enjoyable than The Crew/NFS.

This could be a surprise hit. And with Horizon 5 not landing this year, there is no real competition. Can't wait for the trailer!

Please dont be open world

Ohhh who would have thought, 30seconds of nothing. Next trailer in 3 months

 

[Dr.Morris79]

The fuck was that?

It has to be open world.

 

[Mattyp]

Is the trailer July 21st release 21st? What the fuck did I just watch cunts.

 

[STARSBarry]

Well from the terrible trailer it looks like the Casino makes a return (I remember it being fairly popular in TDU2) hopefully you can bet your cars as seen in the trailer. Otherwise I hope it's closer to the first than the second.

 

[Klik]

The fuck was that?

Exactly my thought

 

[Insane Metal]

Well thanks for the bullshit CGI teaser I guess

 

[//DEVIL//]

Trailer that focus on gambling and head to head racing ..


are we sure this is not a mobile game ?

 

[Certinty]

What the hell do they mean by "Next Chapter: July 2021"?

The next trailer? Gameplay? Release date?

 

[xrnzaaas]

They might've easily skipped this trailer, no one is getting hyped for a CGI which shows nothing.

 

[Nhranaghacon]

The fuck was that?

Would not surprise me if it's actual in game footage - we have not yet seen a single fully next gen game

 

[SlimySnake]

Would not surprise me if it's actual in game footage - we have not yet seen a single fully next gen game

its a cross gen game. it will look like shit.

 

[Nhranaghacon]

its a cross gen game. it will look like shit.

Cross gen does not bar it from releasing with fully next gen assets and with regressed visuals on lesser hardware - with that said, we should
expect visuals on par with this for next gen games that take full advantage of the hardware. Whether this is a CGI trailer or a cinematic with game assets, remains to be seen

Most thought the cinematic visuals for the ARK2 trailer were CGI and they were in game assets, and represented the actual gameplay - which I still personally think looks subpar yet still manages to be
superior to most games currently.

Expect games that fully take advantage of the latest PC Hardware to far surpass this cinematic either way; if they ever decide to again finally make a game like that.

As it stands - a game built to take full advantage of next gen consoles from the ground up should have no issues surpassing what is seen here.

 

[Wonko_C]

Glad to see the game is keeping the "Lifestyle" focus the previous ganes had. All I want from this series is to win races, earn money to buy luxurious apartments and do stuff like cruising around the city as a carefree rich guy. All it needs to complete the experience is VR support.

 

[GaviotaGrande]

Terrible. FMV intros of games from 1990s look better than this CGI garbage.

WHERE
IS
THE
GAMEPLAY
?

 

[TwistedSyn]

Well this is a disappointment. This is being published by Nacon so there is no way I will be picking it up.

How Nacon, The Publisher of The Sinking City, Cracked and Pirated The Game

Update #1: Find the response of Nacon at the end of this post, thx to @PuffyCan for the link ! Update #2: Statement by Frogwares added Nacon decided to steal and pirate the game and they did so while leaving giant digital footprints. This is a crazy story, get the popcorn Video resuming all...
