'Project Cars 2' Release Expected Late 2017; No Launch For Nintendo Switch
The second installment of the 2015 "Project Cars" simulated racing game by Slightly Mad Studios will be released later this year, but creative director Andy Tudor confirms that the developers currently don't have plans to release "Project Cars 2" for the Nintendo Switch.
As of the moment, "Project Cars 2" is being developed for the PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 consoles only. As for a Nintendo Switch release, Tudor says in a Red Bull interview that "I just don't think it's going to be possible."
"In terms of Nintendo Switch, I can say probably that Project Cars franchise will not be coming to Nintendo Switch currently," he adds. The same thing happened with the first "Project Cars" with its planned Wii U release - it was officially announced but was never realized.

The upcoming "Project Cars 2" will reportedly have more than 170 cars and 60 new race tracks, new modes and environments, such as racing in dirt, snow and mud.
Slightly Mad Studios also says the game will have improved car physics, a more accurate geographic and dynamic weather system, and will support 12k resolution.
"Our collective goal at Slightly Mad Studios is to create a simulation racing experience that rivals that of real-life," Project Cars 2 game director Stephen Viljoen said in a PC Gamer statement.
In addition, Tudor reveals that they took note of every review and criticism from the first "Project Cars" game to make "Project Cars 2" even better.
"We've got a great big database of all the reviews and stuff that came in [for Project Cars] along with who did the review, the links, and the number out of ten," the director explained in a GameSpot interview, adding that they took note of the most important things like how some of the players wished there were more cars and how the gamepad handling was too hard.
