RACE, the official WTTCC game, will be released by Eidos, in all EMEA territories on PC on November 24.

The game is developed by Swedish-based company SimBin, who is responsible for other racing titles like GTR-The FIA GT Racing Game, GT Legends and GTR 2- The FIA GT Racing Game. Looks like Swedes really
like their cars.

RACE will feature all the cars, drivers and locations of the 2006 WTCC championship. It will have a little bit for everyone, as beginners will be able to train on the games' tutorials and more experienced players will enjoy the tight death defying turns.

The new WTCC official game will feature 60 different accurately modeled cars and 10 officially licensed tracks from four continents. Also, RACE will have a highly detailed damage system, a various set of weather effects and most importantly, the AI opponents will be similar to real ones as they will try to defeat you with their sprint race attitude.

The online segment was not left aside as the developers implemented in the game real world driver support for a maximum of 26 online players.

This game promises a lot, as it will be published by Eidos, also responsible for successful games like: Tomb Raider: Legend, Hitman: Blood Money and Just Cause. The only thing that disturbs the fans is that an U.S. Release was not scheduled.
