Due to release next month, Project Cars 2</b> is essentially the biggest threat to the success of Forza Motorsport now that Microsoft have started to release their big-name racer on PC - or should that be the other way around?
Either way, both are coming this year, and PC players will have to fight to crown one as the platform's go-to AAA racing title. It'll be a tough gig, that's for sure; but Project Cars 2 is at least beginning to share its growing list of automobiles.
The list is already big enough as it is, but the Project Cars 2 team have recently revealed details of 10 more classic and modern supercars to make the cut; including the F50 GT and the vastly more modern 488 GTE. Each vehicle has been added because of high-profile accolade and ranges from anywhere between a 2016 release and a 1967 engine once crowned 'the most beautiful car ever'. Here's the list:
- LaFerrari (2015): a hybrid, the latest and most powerful road car Ferrari has ever created
- Enzo (2002): previous record holder, making use of banned F1 technology
- F50 GT (1995): only three GT models were ever made. Features a V12 3.5-litre Formula 1-derived engine.
- F40 LM (1994): the last “analogue” Ferrari and final car built under Enzo Ferrari’s supervision
- 288 GTO (1984): first road car to hit 300km/h
- 330 P4 (1967): Daytona winner, called the most beautiful sportscar ever
- 365 GTB/4 Competizione (1968): helped resurrect Ferrari’s floundering race GT program
- F333 SP (1994): led Ferrari’s Daytona comeback
- 488 GTE (2016): second at 2016 Le Mans 24 Hours, third at Daytona 24 2017
- 488 GT3 (2016): won the Bathurst 12 Hour in 2017
If Your PC Can Handle It, Project Cars 2 Will Support 12K Resolutions
Project Cars 2 Was Formally Announced Just A Month After The First Game's Release
Unless you're a true motor nut, you likely wouldn't have realized that each of those 10 cars were all Ferrari! This certainly isn't the first time the elusive car brand has offered up their designs and specifications for a video game, but it's a large selection that's warrented its own reveal trailer. It's a big deal.
You can view the entire Project Cars 2 automobile list here and/or read up on the team's Ferarri reveal through their own blog. If you can't wait to get inside one of these, your best bet is to wait for the game's release on September 22. The original title offered Oculus Rift VR support - so lets hope this one does, too.
