A New Direction: Project Cars 3 (PS4)
Unlike Project Cars and Project Cars 2, which leaned heavily into hardcore racing simulation, Project Cars 3 (PS4) embraced a "sim-cade" approach. This means it offers a handling model that is more forgiving and enjoyable with a gamepad, while still providing a layer of depth for those who enjoy tweaking their setups. The game's core focus is on a new, engaging career mode that takes players on a journey from "weekend warrior" to racing legend, emphasizing car ownership, upgrades, and a sense of progression.
Key Features and Gameplay on PS4
Project Cars 3 (PS4) introduces several features designed to make the racing experience more accessible and rewarding:
- Revamped Career Mode: The career mode is central to the experience. It's structured around earning Credits and XP by completing various objectives within races – not just winning. These objectives might include hitting perfect corners, achieving perfect shifts, executing clean overtakes, or staying on the racing line. This encourages good racecraft and rewards skill beyond just being first. You progress through different tiers of car classes, from road cars to hypercars and dedicated race cars, unlocking new events and challenges.
- Deep Car Ownership & Upgrades: For the first time in the series, you can truly own the cars you acquire. You earn in-game Credits to purchase vehicles and then extensively upgrade them. Performance parts realistically affect handling and power, allowing you to tailor your car to your driving style or even convert road cars into full-blown race machines.
- Extensive Car & Track Roster: The game boasts over 200 elite-brand race and road cars and more than 120 global tracks with multiple layouts. This includes iconic real-world circuits like Daytona, Brands Hatch, Laguna Seca, Circuit of the Americas, Silverstone, Imola, Monza, Nürburgring, and Fuji, alongside some scenic fictional street circuits in locations like Shanghai, Havana, and Tuscany.
- Accessible Handling Model: Slightly Mad Studios developed a new tire model and refined the handling to be more intuitive and "fun" on a controller, making it easier for new players to jump in and enjoy. While still grounded in simulation, the emphasis shifted to feel and responsiveness.
- Comprehensive Customization: Beyond performance upgrades, players can visually customize their cars with liveries, decals, rims, tires, license plates, and race numbers. You can also personalize your driver avatar with different characters, outfits, and helmets.
- Dynamic Weather & Time of Day: Races feature a full 24-hour cycle, dynamic weather, and all-season conditions, impacting track grip, visibility, and overall strategy.
- Enhanced AI: The AI opponents are designed to be more challenging and realistic, adapting to your driving style.
- Multiplayer Modes: Robust online options include quick play races and scheduled events, with skill-based matchmaking aimed at providing fairer and more competitive online experiences. The game supports up to 20 online players.
A notable departure from its predecessors is the removal of tyre wear and fuel depletion as core gameplay mechanics in many events, which also means no mandatory pit stops in most races. This was a significant decision aimed at streamlining the experience and focusing purely on the racing action.
Graphics and Performance on PS4
On the PlayStation 4, Project Cars 3 delivers detailed car models and beautifully rendered tracks. The game typically runs at 1080p resolution and aims for a consistent 30 frames per second (FPS). While some demanding scenes or complex weather conditions might see minor dips, the overall experience is generally smooth and visually appealing for a PS4 title. PS4 Pro owners might experience slightly more stable performance or minor visual fidelity improvements.
Why Play Project Cars 3 on PS4?
Project Cars 3 (PS4) is a strong recommendation for PlayStation 4 owners who:
