Beta Testing Sign-Ups are Open for ‘Project CARS GO’, the Mobile Iteration of the Popular Console and PC Racing Series
Sep
Except… is that actually an appropriate title? The new game has received an extremely mixed response so far for being so far out of line from the previous Project CARS games. Those were much more authentic simulation games whereas Project CARS 3 is basically a straight up arcade racer. Slightly Mad has said it is a spiritual successor to Need for Speed: Shift, which they developed for EA way back in 2009, and being that development on the game began in late 2018 it doesn’t appear that their new owner Codemasters was the driving force behind the change in tone with this third game. It’s also a weird situation because, although I haven’t played it myself, Project CARS 3 doesn’t seem to be a bad game at all, it’s just that it’s so different it’s alienating fans of the first two games who were expecting more of that. This is ever so clear in the comments section of the game’s launch trailer, which you can see below.

Today has already been a good day for iOS gaming with Company of Heroes going universal in addition to some great Apple Arcade updates and the weekly new release. The day improved tenfold for me thanks to Annapurna Interactive who just brought the excellent PlayStation classic The Unfinished Swan ($4.99) to iOS as a premium release. Recently, Annapurna Interactive have been teasing a few things related to The Unfinished Swan and I expected a PC port with a small chance of an iOS port. The Unfinished Swan is out now on iOS as a premium release bringing Giant Sparrow’s classic to mobile for the first time. Watch the original PlayStation trailer for The Unfinished Swan below:
