Ian Bell announces GTR Revival

[Matthew327]

Ian Bell, former head of Slightly Mad Studios, has announced GTR Revival, a successor to GTR2. In his own words:

"Decided to make the follow up to GTR2 with the original team. Myself, Stephen Viljoen, Andy Garton, Stephen Baysted, Henrik Roos, Johan Roos, Vik Klomiets everyone of note who made GTR2 what it was.

Hardcore, balls to the wall, no compromise.

We'll keep you updated."

Your thoughts?

I'm not sure Bell is able or willing to pull off a proper sim anymore

Best of luck to him, though

And if it is a proper sim I'll be there

All words at this point

Wait and see

Bell in a reply to his own tweet:

"This will be made with zero Publisher input. My new company (on the way) Mildly Annoyed Games will take care of all of the development. It's going to be ****ing epic."

The statement reminds me in some ways of the initial phases of Project C.A.R.S

Does anyone has some information whether he also plans to working on the AI as well?

And what's the news about VR?

Does it used forward rendering in favour of VR or deferred rendering as ACC/Rennsport/WRC which is horrible for VR?

I don't think he'll be working on it personally but you should check other threads on GTRevival, they're full of useful information for those that are interested (and there's some salt from those that aren't interested)
