Also, Project Cars 3, per the development team, will include an enhanced AI and a new career mode.
In a post on the PlayStation Blog, Slightly Mad Studios Lead Designer Kris Pope stated that Project Cars 3‘s career mode will include a player progression system and 192 racing events, meaning you’re going to need to acquire a lot of different cars since each race will have unique vehicle requirements.
What new enhancements will be in Project Cars 3?
In the same PlayStation Blog post, Pope stated that this year’s game will feature three new game modes, one of which will be the career mode that we mentioned previously. Another one of those modes is the new ‘Rivals’ mode, a leaderboard-based competition that will consist of daily, weekly, and monthly challenges for the Project Cars community.
Pope also highlighted how players acquire XP credits. The process of acquiring these credits is part of a new player progression system, one that looks to rewards players for racing well. Those who utilize their racing skills the proper way by driving cleanly and riding with little help from the assists will increase the amount of XP you will get in Project Cars 3.
Pope emphasized that the developers at Slightly Mad wanted to give players the liberty and freedom to forge their own racing path. Players will be able to acquire XP in career mode races, as well as in multiplayer competitions and the new Breakout mode. According to Pope, this element keeps intact Project Cars‘ “sandbox element alive by giving you the freedom to decide exactly how you want your motorsport journey to grow.
