We are making adjustments of the roads to make them interesting in the game, and also making them a good balance. “You know, it’s a balance of highways – which are important for Supercars and Hypercars, but not for lower end cars – roads in the country, places where you have good views of the island. “We are starting work from reality,” Alain told us. Pedestrianised areas have been reopened to cars in TDU Solar Crown, and there’s other tweaks to the road layout. Thankfully, from official maps and city regulations about road signs, to Google Maps and being able to watch YouTube videos from people’s dash cams as they drive the city, they’ve been able to sample everything they could need – a local Nacon office has meant they can check with local employees about certain things for accuracy.Īnyone that’s actually tried driving in a city will tell you that it’s rarely fun, and so KT are modifying and adapting the environment from that baseline. With the pandemic, lockdowns and visitor quarantines preventing KT from sending their French team out to Hong Kong to capture their own reference material, they’ve had to turn to other modern sources of information. Of course, actually recreating a foreign city in the last few years has been anything but a traditional task. Then, when you go East and West, you’ve got seaports, and then to the South, you’ve got small beaches and it almost looks the south of France! It’s a real pleasure to discover the island.” On the north of the island, it’s like New York, a big city, but with rich and poor areas so it’s already very interesting in terms of diversity. You imagine that Hong Kong Island is just a big city with lots of skyscrapers, but that’s not the truth at all. It’s sure to provide a very different tone to those islands, with much more inner city driving, skyscrapers, neon lights and the like.Īlain reassured us that “Hong Kong island is also very interesting in terms of variety. “My mission on Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown is to keep the focus and the right direction to keep all those good feelings that come with a Test Drive Unlimited and that you can’t see anywhere else.”Īt the heart of this new game will be Hong Kong Island, which has been recreated at 1:1 scale, similar to how the previous games featured Oahu and Ibiza.
