VG247: Project Gotham 5 is rumoured to be in development at Liverpool studio Lucid Games. We’ve unearthed what could be the first teaser art for the alleged Xbox 720 launch title.
Koku writes: "Microsoft is keeping shush about the future of the franchise because of the attention Forza 5 has received, they have been working with third party developers to revive the PGR franchise. Microsoft has also renewed the Project Gotham Racing trademark. You may recall from the article posted on Develop, they were interviewing many European developers in hopes of finding a studio that will work on the next game in the series, well they have found un-announced developer and are waiting before they make any announcements."
It's about the damn time. I like Forza but it's been turning into a call of duty yearly release garbage. I can't complaint forza 5 turned out well but the 2 forza games before were garbage.
The Kudos system! That's all I'm going to say, being rewarded for drifting the whole time. The soundtrack was one of the most enjoyable things to me about the game as well. Loved it all. :)
I hope this is true! Would be awesome having a new pgr on the X1. Hopefully more information trickles out regarding this rumor.
@Ziriux
I agree with you, I like Turn 10 and I think they do good work, but they already have Forza and Forza Horizon. If this rumor has any truth to it then I wonder what development team will be tackling pgr. As long as they keep it stylish, fast, and fun then it will be Kudos to them!
I thought the company went belly up though, but damn that is some great news indeed.
Do we really need another SIM racer? We need more racer like burnout ...before that garbage burnout paradise
John Finch writes: "We’re a couple months into the lives of the Xbox One and PlayStation 4. What has determined much of the early showdown between these two consoles is which do you buy? For most, the two consoles are mutually exclusive, and exclusive titles are the deciding factors. The Xbox One may not have matched Sony’s early console sales, but both consoles sold exceptionally well. If Sony and Microsoft want to keep that momentum going they’ll have to continue supplying original titles, and SpawnFirst has a list of some of the original Xbox’s best to bring back."
Shenmue will most likely be a Sony exclusive.
I wanna see Jade Empire, Phantom Dust, Advent Rising, Alter Echo and Otogi 3 get revived or rebooted.
Pgr, shenmue, jade empire and star wars:kotor would be great, but ill rather go for fuzion frenzy, blinx, otogi, pgr, mechassault ,conker, shenmue,star wars:kotor , jade empire, kung fu chaos, rallisport and blood wake.
i wanna see another brute force along with a number of those games that everyone else just listed
VVV: "With other rumours hinting at the possibility of Turn 10 or Playground Games having a crack at PGR, its deprived fanbase held out hope of a revival. It turns out they would be wise not to hold their hopes up however, as Microsoft have now confirmed that no PGR game is currently in development, and is unlikely to be any time soon."
Damn. Been hoping for a PGR5 for years. Loved the earlier games. Bulldog mode for PGR4 is some of the best fun ive had on a videogame.
Well you really can't make it when most of the team behind PGR is now working for Evolution studios and making DriveClub...
Make a sequel for Rallisport Challenge instead, that game especially number 2 was great!
Sweet I can't wait!! PGR series is one of my top five racing series ever!!
This is Concept GP from Nintendo and Lucid games as far as i am aware.
It was rumoured about a year ago and going off how big the game sounds i doubt they will be working on PG racing as well not until Concept GP is finished ? if the rumour was correct,but hey ive heard no rumours of ps4 or 720 getting any racing game from Lucid so i'm going with Concept GP.
