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.

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?

In a post on the Reiza forums today, the developer has detailed what we can still expect from them before the end of the year:

– Nurburgring Historic 1971 (part of Nurburgring DLC)
– Supercars Pt1 featuring 3 road Supercars
– Brazilian Racing Legends Pt1 featuring 6 historical Grand Prix cars
– Historic Track Pack Pt1 featuring 3 historical tracks (all versions of non-DLC modern tracks already in the game)

For historics fans, like me, this is pure gold. I have perhaps missed what the “Brazilian Racing Legends” pack is about, but I do recall Reiza having an agreement with the Senna family in the past to include him in some content, so that would be excellent, but honestly when it comes to Brazilian racing legends there are plenty to choose from! Not so excited about the road supercars, but I can certainly allow others to be happy about them.

Reiza state that: “All items are well into their production schedule and are expected to be released simultaneously before the end of 2022.”

An update on DLC plans for all items of the 2020-2022 Season Pass & Premium Expansion Packs that remain to be fulfilled – we are pushing to deliver these items before the end of the year:

Nurburgring Historic 1971 (part of Nurburgring DLC)

Supercars Pt1 featuring 3 road Supercars

Brazilian Racing Legends Pt1 featuring 6 historical Grand Prix cars

Historic Track Pack Pt1 featuring 3 historical tracks (all versions of non-DLC modern tracks already in the game)

Pricing for each pack is estimated at US$ 9.99 / 9.99€ / R$ 39,99; specifics about the contents of each pack will be announced with previews in the December Dev Update over the coming weeks. All items are well into their production schedule and are expected to be released simultaneously before the end of 2022.

Please note that while all above packages should eventually receive a Pt2 and potentially Pt3, those would not be a part of the existing 2020-2022 Season Pass or the Premium Expansion Packs.

The one item from the 2020-2022 Season Pass & Premium Expansion Packs that will remain to be fulfilled in 2023 is the Adrenaline Pack – it´s quite a sizeable DLC with many dedicaated features that are demanding a bit more time from us to be properly executed. We expect to have it out before end of Q1 2023 – despite the 2023 release, this will naturally still be delivered to all owners of the 2020-2022 Season Pass / Premium Expansion Packs at no additional charge. As a standalone, the Adrenaline Pack pricing is projected at US$ 19.99 / 19.99€ / R$ 79,99.
