2024: An Exciting Year Ahead for Racing Game Fans
As the new year of 2024 begins, the world of racing games offers an exciting experience for fans, with updated versions of popular series and the possibility of new competitors emerging. With the expected return of live events in the Gran Turismo World Series and the introduction of new games like Assetto Corsa 2, the genre prepares for an exhilarating year to come.
Revival of the Gran Turismo World Series
An important moment for the racing game world is the eagerly awaited return of live events for the Gran Turismo World Series. The series, which has been a regular feature in the gaming world, is considering the possibility of reenacting the events that occurred before 2020, with Italy being a probable location. In addition, the series is considering renewing its FIA certification, which enhances its standing in the realm of competitive racing games.
Changes in the Gran Turismo Environment
Nevertheless, the racing community will need to deal with the shutdown of Gran Turismo Sport’s online services, a change that will unavoidably affect multiplayer modes and other features that rely on online connectivity. However, single-player modes will still offer the engaging experience that players anticipate from the franchise.
Upcoming Releases in the Racing Genre
When it comes to upcoming releases, Assetto Corsa 2 is leading the pack with a planned arrival in the second quarter of 2024. The game is expected to include a new engine and undisclosed content, increasing the excitement. Another game competing for attention is Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown, which, despite encountering a few obstacles, is aiming for a release in 2024. Promising an unparalleled replica of Hong Kong Island, more information is anticipated to be revealed in an upcoming beta. Meanwhile, the future of Rennsport is uncertain because it could not achieve its goals for 2023. Nevertheless, the promise demonstrated by its esports endeavour and modding possibilities offers a ray of optimism.
Gossip: A New and Improved PlayStation 5?
Adding to the anticipation, rumours of a possible ‘PS5 Pro’ have started to spread. If these rumours come true, this improved console might have a significant impact, including updated features like 8K resolution at 120 fps and real-time ray tracing, following the precedent set by the PS4 Pro. This progress could be a direct result of the resolution of current chip shortages, representing a notable advancement in the gaming industry.
