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.
SIMBIN today announced that their historic GT Legends title will be published by Atari in (if I understand the press release correctly) Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Great Britain, Ireland, France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxemburg, Scandinavia, Greece, Israel, South Africa, South America, Australia and New Zealand.
Press release:
