Atari has finally announced Test Drive Unlimited 2, the long-rumored sequel to Eden Games’ 2006 open world racer.
Despite Atari and Eden saying the game is a step forward, everything they’re currently telling us about it sounds an awful lot like the original. That means a persistent online playing environment that blends both the single-player and multiplayer experiences. The sequel will also bring vehicle damage, weather effects, and day and night cycles.
Also fresh will be “a brand new island” to explore, but what’s unclear is if said island will be Hawaiian — the first game had players racing around O’ahu. Perhaps eagle-eyed readers might be able to spot landmarks or something in the three images released today.
The game’s scheduled for a fall release for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows. Was anyone still waiting for this sequel?
