If you ever played Papyrus’ seminal Grand Prix Legends then you’ve read his name. Rich began working as a tester on NASCAR Racing (1994) and was with Papyrus at the end. In this interview, published in 2022, we discuss his time at the legendary studio and the design of Grand Prix Legends, including initial feelings of hurt at not being asked to join iRacing.
As a direct ancestor of iRacing, the ‘Grand Prix Legends engine’ had multiple stock car racing false starts, before eventually releasing as NASCAR Racing 4. The original NASCAR 3, cancelled and replaced by one that used NASCAR 2’s engine, is barely remembered.
Saber have posted a new trailer for Dakar Desert Rally five months after their last content release and fully six months after their last post-release trailer. The game itself released almost a year ago.
While I believe Dakar Desert Rally is still a good game, having reviewed it as such, the timing of this new trailer seems extremely weird. Where’s the update?
Update:
Saber have tweeted to say that the update should be expected by Q4 2023:
Our team is working hard to bring the next major content update.
We don’t have precise release information yet, but we can confirm that we are targeting by the end of this year.
We’ll share more information as we have it. Thank you for your patience and ongoing enthusiasm!
