Asobo, known today as the Microsoft Flight Simulator developer, created groundbreaking technology for large scale maps that was intended to be used in a high quality rally raid title. It was never released and ended up as FUEL, a post-apocalyptic open-world racing game. What happened?
Better known today as the developer of Skyrim and Fallout, Bethesda once had a well-respected racing game franchise and were deep into development of a licensed Skip Barber Racing title that never released.
Codemasters today released another update to F1 2021 that adds the Portimao track to the simulation more than a year after it was announced to be on the 2020 schedule and 10 months after it was announced it would return for 2021. For a company with the resources and access they have I am disappointed it took so long, but thanks, I guess? They also added the Aston Martin Safety Car that was announced to be used by F1 in March.
