RACE 07 features:
• The full 2007 and 2006 seasons of the WTCC, the historic WTCC’87 class, Formula 3000, Formula BMW, the Mini Cooper Challenge, the Radical SR3 and SR4 (in various configurations), as well as the Caterham CSR200, CSR260 and CSR320 Concept
• Intense “single seater” action: on these open racecars SimBin has developed a helmet camera as never seen before. Not only does it accurately resemble the view from inside a helmet, it also has all the visor dynamics the real fan could wish for. The visor gets dirty and can be cleaned by pulling a protective layer of plastic off, the so called “tear-off.”
• 32 different tracks and variations from all over the world, including unique city tracks as well as legendary tracks such as Monza, Zandvoort, Brands Hatch and Imola
• Online World Championship functionality with rankings and leader boards
• Human-like AI opponents that behave as natural race drivers, trying to force the player into error
• Enhanced community appeal, community drivers, customized skins and league-support

RACE 07 TV COMMERCIAL RELEASED – 30 SECONDS CAN SAY A LOT!

SimBin Studios are excited to present the 30 second TV commercial for RACE 07 – The Official WTCC Game which will be broadcasted in 59 countries on the Eurosport network during September and October.

Our focus with this TV commercial is to visually present the mindset around RACE 07 which is combining the elements of racing with touring cars, formula cars and sportscars and at the same time highlighting some of the other aspects of the game.

“We wanted to create a fresh looking concept for the RACE 07 marketing and we choose to base it around a fictional “white universe”, said Johan Roos, CMO, SimBin Studios AB. “In the TV spot we combine this concept with scenes taken straight from the game and we are really happy with the end result, added Roos.

Multiple award winning game studio SimBin Development Team is proud to reveal some of the news in the eagerly awaited sequel to RACE called RACE 07, scheduled for release on PC this year.

RACE 07 will contain more than 200 cars in 11 different car classes and host 20 different circuits from all over the world, several of them being city racetracks never before featured in a racing game. Next to the FIA WTCC seasons of 2006 and 2007 RACE 07 also contains open wheeler and sports car racing such as Formula 3000, Formula BMW and Radical SR3 and SR4.

A new and unique helmet cam view has been implemented to support the open cockpit cars specifically. This helmet view is directly affected by different weather effects as well as dirt and bugs on the helmet visor.

On top of this comes a new animation for removing virtual Tear offs from the helmets visor, just as in real racing where the helmet is heavily exposed during the races.
RACE 07 is also introducing a new action camera cockpit view that will add even more immersion and sensation of speed when driving from the cockpit.

RACE 07 supports both a normal according to real life championship mode as well as a new custom championship mode where you can mix cars and classes, not to mention tracks, as you wish. In addition RACE 07 also supports custom skins, especially important for communities and league racing.

The late changes in the calendar of the FIA WTCC events has resulted in several new circuits for SimBin to implement into RACE 07 and for this reason the release is now set to autumn 2007.
