Project CARS 2 game was released in 2017. For almost five years now, this racing simulator remains popular among players of all nationalities and ages. What are the features of the game and why is it so popular? Let's figure it out together.

First, the game was developed for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One. The player can choose the system that is the most comfortable for him to play on in a particular situation.

Project CARS 2 features cars from most of the well-known manufacturers, such as Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Jaguar, Honda, Acura, Nissan and others (about 40 manufacturers in total). A wide variety of cars (about 200) made the process of creating the game long and expensive. The developers negotiated with all copyright holders and car manufacturers to license these machines to their game. The game also features a variety of racing tracks (140 tracks).

In the world of video games, Project CARS 2 is considered a challenging one. At the same time, the difficulty is not in competition with other players, but in exceptional mechanics, close to a realistic model of the car. Of course, the game has an assistant (AI) who can give advice on setting up the car, making it much easier to adjust the vehicle to suit you and your driving style. But a professional set-up still requires a detailed consideration of the characteristics.

Many experts agree that the Project Cars 2 developers managed to fix the flaws of the first part, as well as add a lot of various feature to the game that are missing in other simulators. In particular, due to more realistic mechanics, you can experience driving on icy road and in other weather conditions. The Live Track 3.0, a patented system from game developer Slightly Mad, makes it possible to drive on the same track in completely different weather conditions. The game takes into account the season, time of day and weather (sunny, rainy, blizzard, etc.)

An important distinctive feature of the game is a convenient entry threshold in terms of system requirements for the PC and steering wheel. And also to the delight of

fans, in Project CARS 2, developers added the ability to play online with friends.

As mentioned above, the game offers a lot of content. Each car is carefully recreated and worked out to the smallest detail. The visual part is an important component for the player. And in Project CARS 2 it's very realistic with various speed and collision effects. Cars slip, skid and do all the things a real car would do.

The tires warm up and wear out, and so does the engine at high revs. Mistakes on gear shifting will also be costly. Crash damage results in large dents on the vehicle, attachments fall off, and with damaged parts, the car becomes significantly worse to drive and control.

Sound effects should also be noted. They are perfectly worked out. The sound from the cars is different.

Certainly, the game deserves attention even after so many years after its release. Here you can ride from dusk to dawn in any weather conditions and on any car.
