In Gear.Club Unlimited 2 racers will be able to power through almost 3,000 km of roads – through nature parks, on mountainsides, in the middle of the desert, and along a gorgeous coastline. As fans of Eden have come to expect, the game features more than 50 licensed cars from the world’s most famous manufacturers, including the Porsche 718 Boxster, McLaren 720, 918 Spyder, 911 GT2RS, Lotus 3-Eleven and Dodge Viper, which is produced by the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV. Players can manage and personalize their garage, as well as their racing cars, which can be visually customized through paint and bodywork and performance-tuned to enhance driving performance.
Gear.Club 2 Unlimited offers more than 250 all new races, including championships, challenges and a story mode where racers can save the family team from bankruptcy by taking on charismatic riders from across the globe. Players can also create and manage their own club, recruiting the best drivers that cross their path and challenging rival clubs from around the world to see their crew’s name appear at the top of the leaderboard.
“With the success of Gear.Club Unlimited for Switch and the passionate response it got from fans of our games and of Nintendo, we couldn’t wait to get started on this new and improved version,” said Eden Games CEO, David Nadal. “We’ve had almost as much fun working with Microids and Nintendo as racers will have once they get their hands on Gear.Club Unlimited 2.”
As previously announced by Millennial Esports, Eden Games is also partnering with Codemasters on the world’s first Formula 1-branded mobile racing game, which is expected to be released in the fall. Simultaneously, Eden is developing Gear.Club Live, a slimmed down version of the leading mobile game that has been designed to facilitate in-race competitions for both cash prizes and prizes fulfilled through the Amazon GameOn platform.
