Project CARS has been officially cancelled on Wii U, with developer Slightly Mad Studios saying the console simply isn’t powerful enough.
“Despite much perseverance on the Wii U version of Project CARS we will no longer be actively pursuing development on it as the quality does not meet our own high standards nor our intended vision for the title on this platform,” Andy Tudor, Creative Director of Slightly Mad Studios, said in a statement.
“We eagerly look forward to any announcement of further hardware from Nintendo but right now Project CARS is simply too much for Wii U despite our very best efforts.
“Apologies to our Nintendo fans out there that have been waiting for further news on this but have no desire to release a product that isn’t at the very least comparable with our highest-rated versions on other platforms. We optimistically look forward therefore to what the future may hold.”
Studio head Ian Bell took to the game’s forums recently to hint at the cancellation.
