After a 13-year absence, this new opus in the Test Drive Unlimited series revives the fundamental principles for which the series is renowned: racing, lifestyle, and social.
Players build their own tailor-made experience. According to their status, choices, and interactions with the virtual world in which they evolve. In-game, each car is earned and obtained by winning several races.
The KT Racing team has put all its expertise into this new opus. This helps ensure total respect for the license and enable the community to relive the unique Test Drive Unlimited experience.
“On behalf of the KT Racing team, we’d like to thank all our players for their enthusiasm for Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown since its announcement. We’re extremely proud of the work accomplished and hope that racing fans will enjoy rediscovering the DNA of this iconic license. Today marks the beginning of a great adventure for many years to come, and we look forward to racing around Hong Kong Island with the players”, said Guillaume Guinet, Game Director of TDUSC.
Conceived and designed as a game-as-a-service, the title will benefit from extensive follow-up and regular updates. There will be numerous additional contents and game modes added to the initial experience. Based on a season system, players will be able to enjoy new activities, vehicles, and themes every three months:
