CLUTCH

[Goldrusher]

release: 2027
genre: racing, open-world
dev: Maverick Games

Van de nieuwe studio van Mike Brown (creative director van Forza Horizon).

Clutch‘s cinematic narrative and story driven campaign are at the core of its dynamic open-world experience. It tells the story of sibling racing prodigies competing in the R1K, a historic series that’s been the proving ground for the world’s top drivers for 100 years. Away from the pomp and pageantry of the R1K is the underground Midnight Collective made up of those who love showing off their style and the raw thrill of speed. When the hero finds himself in trouble and in need of a fixer, the underbelly of the R1K is smashed wide open.

Players will compete for position, reputation and rewards while navigating shifting alliances, escalating pursuits and rival crews across a living player-versus-player-versus-environment action-driving world. Players will progress through a diverse array of hand-crafted and spontaneous missions and races that break the mold of modern driving games and challenge player creativity at every turn.

Clutch‘s proprietary physics engine and deep vehicle personalization system allow players to build cars defined as much by identity and style as raw performance. Customization goes deeper than the custom paint or aftermarket parts, it’s in the tiny details of owning a car that build on the connection between car and driver. Players can create a true one-of-one car and the ride of their dreams, being rewarded equally for both creative flair and finishing position.

Ik vraag me af of we hier nog eens een racegame gaan zien met effectieve rivalen en een beetje trashtalk in de campaign.

NFS was indertijd geen cinematisch meesterwerk, maar God verbiedt dat in een moderne racing-game een npc ooit iets zegt à la "Hoe vond je de achterkant van mijn Supra, nerd? "

FH + Midnight Club + NFS2: Underground + nog t een t ander: SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

Ziet er goed uit, mengt precies veel van oudere succesvolle games! Laten we hopen dat ze dit kunnen waarmaken en dat niet zomaar een arcade achtige game zal worden.
