Project Motor Racing is gearing up for its highly anticipated release on November 25, 2025, across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S platforms. Originally announced as GTR Revival in a September 2022 Twitter post by veteran game designer Ian Bell, the project has since evolved into a full-fledged spiritual successor to the iconic GTR series. Bell, known for his work on legendary titles like GTR, GT Legends, and Project CARS, has assembled key developers from GTR 2 to create this ambitious racing simulator.

The game's development journey hasn't been without challenges. Initially targeting a late 2024 launch, the team faced several hurdles that led to a rebranding and publisher change. GIANTS Software, renowned for their work on Farming Simulator, stepped in as the new publisher, replacing PLAION (formerly Koch Media). This partnership brings the powerful GIANTS Engine 10 to the project, promising both visual fidelity and modding support.

The recent announcement trailer confirmed the November release date and showcased several exciting features. Players can look forward to 27 meticulously recreated real-world tracks and 72 authentic vehicles spanning 10 racing classes. While details remain scarce, the developers have confirmed online multiplayer functionality alongside the game's centerpiece: an innovative Career mode that aims to revolutionize racing simulations.

Project Motor Racing distinguishes itself from traditional racing sims by simulating the complete life of a professional racer. The Career mode introduces an "authentic motorsports economy" where success isn't just about crossing the finish line first. Players must manage finances carefully, as race winnings must cover not just new vehicles but also travel expenses, repairs, and entry fees.

Three distinct career paths offer varied starting points: Journeyman Driver (starting from the bottom), Professional Level (mid-tier equipment), or Global Operation (well-funded team). Additionally, players can choose their home region (Europe, North America, or Asia), which affects in-game economics through varying prices for parts and services. Sponsorship deals and consistent performance become crucial for long-term success in this cutthroat virtual racing world.
