Project CARS delayed into 2015 to avoid competition

It’s a weird time to be a car game right now, with current-gen offerings like The Crew, Driveclub and Forza Horizon 2 being offered alongside last-gen entries like F1 2014.

It mightn’t come as a surprise, then, that Slightly Mad Studios and Bandai Namco have made the decision to delay Project CARS until 2015.

“Whilst a tough decision to make, the change in release date allows the game the greatest chance of success and visibility, and the opportunity to polish the game even further to the high standards that both ourselves and our community demand and expect,” said Slightly Mad Studios’s Ian Bell in a press release.

The game is now expected on 20 March 2015 for Wii U, Xbox One, PS4, Windows PC and Wii U. We recently reviewed Project CARS here.

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
