System 3 unveils SuperCar Challenge

PS3-exclusive racer out in spring.

System 3 has announced that it will follow up this year's Ferrari Challenge with SuperCar Challenge, another PS3-exclusive racer, in the spring.

Developed once again by Eutechnyx, SuperCar Challenge expands the vehicular line-up to include the Aston Martin DB9, Lamborghini Murcielago RGT, McLaren F1 and Ferrari FXX among its more than 40 cars.

It also promises over 20 tracks including Silverstone, Spa, Nurburgring and Mugello Italy, with several game modes to explore, including 16-player online or LAN races.

As with Ferrari Challenge, handling will be buffed up for simulation fans who want a fierce challenge, but there will also be simpler arcade options for beginners, lots of driving assists and dynamically changing career-mode AI, with the aim being to "graduate players" from novice to expert.

Once they get there, they can take on the new "Legendary" AI setting, and might be able to download extra cars to drag things out.

All the while, System 3 notes with exclamation, there's voiceover and commentary from Tiff Needell. There's no sign of him in the screenshots, of course, but you can admire those anyway in our SuperCar Challenge gallery.
