Rockstar Games has sent word that they will be coming out with a new Midnight Club game. Midnight Club: Los Angeles will be a next-generation racing game and will set the standard of what an open-world racing game can be.
Jay Panek, Producer, Midnight Club series explains, “On prior consoles, the Midnight Club franchise continually raised the bar for racing games, evolving from being the first ever street racing game to setting the defining standard for credibly integrating street racing culture with an intense racing experience. With Midnight Club: Los Angeles, our goal is to evolve on all possible levels and stay true to the hardcore gaming experience the series is known for, while making it accessible to casual gamers and car enthusiasts.”
Sam Houser, Founder & Executive Producer, Rockstar Games comments, “Midnight Club’s addictive blend of freedom, style and sheer sense of speed sets it apart from its competition. With Midnight Club: Los Angeles, Rockstar San Diego looks to once again push the boundaries and expectations of what a racing game can be. Rockstar San Diego has always been the technology leader in delivering the ultimate racing experience, and with this game, they are looking to re-define the idea of a completely immersive racing game experience, both offline and online.”
Midnight Club: Los Angeles is now being developed by Rockstar San Diego and will release in the first quarter of 2008 for the PS3 and the Xbox 360. The earlier three games that were released for the consoles were fun to play, but it would have been great if Rockstar could bring out the game for the PC.
