  • Need for Speed Shift Developer Announces MMO Racing Game World of Speed

    Slightly Mad Studios, the studio behind the Need for Speed SHIFT games, have announced that they are working on a MMO racing game, World of Speed. It is slated to be a free-to-play game for PC gamers that will be released later this year.
    In World of Speed, players will hop in the driver’s seat of an endless garage of cars ranging from everyday city runners to the fastest super cars on the planet to the most iconic cars from throughout the storied history of auto racing. Players will find themselves racing on true-to-life tracks spanning the globe and on tracks only a speed freak could dream up, carved from roadways across cities including London and San Francisco.

    World of Speed introduces a new level of connected competition allowing players real-time interactive social gameplay through intense Club and team gameplay, the Airfield social hub, and unique missions and objectives in every race to make every players actions really matter. As an online experience, World of Speed will be supported with live events and player challenges, new gameplay modes, tracks and cars and much more.

    A closed beta for the game will begin this Spring. You can sign up to have a chance to join the closed beta by going to the World of Speed website.

      I can't really fathom the structure of their studio, they did Need for Speed for EA, then after some time started their crowdfunded Project C.A.R.S which has been in developement for quite awhile, during which they made a full game in Test Drive: Ferrari Legends published by Atari, now an online racing game using some car licenses i'm not sure they have for pcars, which you'd assume would be their focus due to it being community funded, whew.

      Also Biker Bash is in there somewhere but i don't know what that is, i wonder if the people who funded pcars feel ignored at the moment.

      It didn't even click in my mind that they were the studio behind Project CARS. I guess that would explain how they managed to release some fantastic looking screens on par with PCARS.
