Tag: Real Racing 3 »

Two games were demoed at the Apple Event Wednesday. Real Racing 3 was the one that really showed off the device. Talking to Rob Murray after the event he noted that the A6 processor in the iPhone 5 allowed them to turn up the effects even more than they already had to make everything in the game look even more realistic.

Real Racing 3 will be out before the end of the year and include interesting new features like time-shifted multiplayer via Game Center, working side mirrors, and visual effects like we've never seen on a portable device. These are console-quality graphics we are talking about. Take a look at the following, first screen shot of Real Racing 3 (click for full size 1136x640 screen).

I can not wait to get my hands on this one.

Firemonkeys, formed from the recent merger of Firemint and Iron Monkey Studios, has announced its first title: Real Racing 3. This sequel to the popular racing series promises to boast more of what made the series so popular.

While only an alpha version was shown off, the footage is all based on in-game visuals, which displays how detailed the cars are going to be in the game. The details won’t come at the sacrifice of cars on the track, as the racing field has been expanded to 22 cars. There’s no confirmation of 22-player online multiplayer yet, though.

To help put the “Real” in Real Racing 3, real-life tracks are going to be in the game, including Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Laguna Seca, and Silverstone. New car brands have been added, including Porsche, Audi, and Dodge. No release date was confirmed, other than that it is scheduled to release sometime this year.
