Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown is a car MMO that’s about more than just racing
01.09.2023 - 08:47 / thesixthaxis.com
There’s a very particular style and tone to Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown. Where open world racing games can generally be divided into two camps – Forza Horizon and games that want to be Forza Horizon – Test Drive Unlimited is the outlier. It’s not a game that will throw expensive cars at you as a reward for clumsily rampaging across town, but rather wants you to care about the cars you own, rendering them with meticulous attention to detail.
All of that said, you’ll still get to live out the fantasy of earning and owning wild hypercars and getting into countless illegal street races on the roads of Hong Kong Island.
Speaking of Hong Kong Island, anyone whose awareness of the region is largely derived from cinema will likely be surprised at the breadth and diversity of environments that you’ll find within Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown. Yes, you’ll absolutely be racing through Central Hong Kong and the forest of skyscrapers that dominates the skyline and waterfront, but so much of Hong Kong Island is outside of the main metropolises. There’s over 650km of roads rendered in the game, and from skimming across the map, maybe 70-80% of that feels like it’s outside of the cities and towns. Oh, and that’s before counting the smaller trails that you’ll venture down when hunting for collectables, like abandoned classic cars to rebuild and claim them for your garage.
We had just a glimpse of what the setting of Solar Crown has to offer – whisked around a handful of locations on a whistle-stop tour to showcase the game’s key features in a one-hour hands-on session – but quickly got to understand what it aims to be as a game.
Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown is essentially an MMO, an always online driving and racing game where everything and everyone is always connected. Online open-world racing games have become the norm in recent years, but you’re typically playing solo first and opting into online multiplayer. That’s not the case with Solar Crown, where almost every race event you take part in will feature matchmaking, with AI backfilling spaces as a backup. Thankfully your race goal and objective will be adjusted to suit the skill of your opponents, but if you’re used to bullying the AI and rampaging to first place in every race, you’ll have another thing coming in Solar Crown.
A key part of the game will be mastering your car. Early on in the game, you’ll have a fast car, perhaps a Nissan 370Z ’09, as I was handed the keys to, and that will be your workhorse as you choose and ingratiate yourself with the clan of your choice – the Streets or the Sharps – upgrading the car with numerous parts so that it can handle greater challenges or has different attributes, but at the same time eyeing up the next

There's More to the Nikon Z f Than Just Looks
Nikon is hoping to rekindle the market success it enjoyed with the APS-C sensor Z fc with another retro-inspired model, this time with a full-frame sensor. The Z f is conceptually the same, though. On the outside it looks like an old film camera, with discrete dials to control exposure, but inside it's got Nikon's latest processing and autofocus tech, and support for Z-mount mirrorless lenses.

It took more than 30 years but it's finally happening: Jean-Claude Van Damme is coming to Mortal Kombat
