Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown release date window

The Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown release date is set for early 2024 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. This was announced in July 2023 and was a big delay for the game, as it was originally planned to release in 2023.

An announcement in May 2022 said the game was set to launch in 2023 and before that, it was originally set for 2022. However, the game has seen a fair few delays as outlined and the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game were cancelled in May 2022. 

Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown platforms

Currently, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown is only releasing for current-gen consoles. That means you’ll only be getting behind the wheel on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Sadly, there isn’t a last-gen version in the works for PlayStation 4 or Xbox One consoles. This likely down to how demanding the game’s technical upgrades are, let alone giving players a vast open-world playground to explore. 

Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown gameplay

We had the chance to play Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown in-person at Gamescom 2023, and we were surprised just how promising its refreshed MMO approach is stacking up. In our Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown preview, we were impressed with the game’s massive customization suite, weighty and realistic driving, and focus on making a highly sociable player experience.

Whether it has enough of an identity to stand out from rival racing franchises like Need for Speed or Forza Horizon, but there’s certainly strong enough foundations to carve out its own niche in the genre. Nevertheless, if you love speeding around a large map with a highly customizable vehicle, you should feel right at home when Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown arrives.
