Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown publisher Nacon and developer KT Racing have been releasing a number of videos over the past couple of months highlighting the various playstyles in the game, such as The Cruiser and The Racer, and now we’ve got a look another playstyle in The Explorer.

The two highlights of the lineup are arguably GreedFall 2: The Dying World and Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown. The first is the sequel to Spiders' solid BioWare-like action RPG released in 2019. At launch, I rated GreedFall 7.5, noting the studio's improvements over previous titles.
GreedFall is the best game made by Spiders yet and a worthy RPG in its own right. While definitely not without faults in some areas, it delivers great writing, arguably the most refreshing setting seen recently in a fantasy game, and solid combat.
The French studio (acquired by NACON, then still Bigben Interactive, a few months ahead of the release of the first game) then made a Soulslike game called Steelrising, which didn't receive the same acclaim as its RPG titles. With GreedFall 2, though, they're going back to what they know best. This sequel will actually take place before the events of the first game, acting as a prequel from a narrative standpoint. Publisher NACON revealed that there will be a post-show where Spiders will provide even more details about the game.
The other major game to be featured is the new entry in the Test Drive Unlimited series. The open world racing game has been in development for many years and should have launched two years ago. Fans are still waiting for a release date and NACON Connect could be the perfect venue to get it. Solar Crown earned our Most Anticipated Sports/Racing Game of 2024 award, by the way.
Lastly, it'll be interesting to see which Terminator game the publisher is referring to. It does sound a bit early for a sequel to Terminator: Resistance, given that developer Teyon has just recently released RoboCop: Rogue City (which won the Best Shooter of 2023 prize at the Wccftech Awards). It could be another game from another developer. We'll have to wait ten days to know for sure.
