PMR, GTRevival
Release Date: November 25, 2025
Project Motor Racing (previously known as GTRevival) is a car racing simulation game, prepared by Ian Bell and his team (he was involved in GTR and Project CARS series). The game features 28 tracks and around 70 racing cars from various categories. We can play a in robust career mode and in online multiplayer.
Project Motor Racing (originally announced as GTRevival) is a car simulator that serves as a spiritual successor of 2 well-known racing series representing this subgenre: GTR and Project CARS. It was developed by the Straight4 Studios team. Ian Bell is at its helm, who greatly contributed to the creation of both brands mentioned above. He started working on Project Motor Racing after leaving Slightly Mad Studios in 2021, which happened shortly after this studio was taken over by Electronic Arts.
Project Motor Racing places emphasis on realism, going further in this aspect than Project CARS . The creators wanted to provide players with as authentic an experience as possible of racing various cars on famous tracks from around the world (including Bathurst, Monza, Nurburgring, Spa-Francorchamps and Zolder). However, they prepared optional assists for less experienced players.
The base version of the game includes 28 tracks from 18 locations and approximately 70 race cars, divided into categories such as LMDh, GT3, GT4, Group C, N-GT or single seaters from the 1970s. Particular recognition should be given to the iconic GT and N-GT class machines from the beginning of the 21st century - such as the Lister Storm, Aston Martin DBR9 or Gillet Vertigo - which were the stars of the GTR series games.
Project Motor Racing offers both single player gameplay and an online multiplayer mode. The pillar of the first one is an extensive career, in which we decide on the starting budget of our racing team (it's a kind of equivalent to choosing the difficulty level) and the location of its headquarters, and then we buy cars of from a given class and race them. We must take care of our budget, because travel and vehicle damage involve expenses, and in order to earn more money, we need to negotiate and nurture contracts with sponsors.
Project Motor Racing was initially developed based on Unreal Engine 5, but over time the creators switched to Giants Engine (a technology from Giants Software, which powers the Farming Simulator series). The change was largely dictated by the desire to provide the best possible service for VR sets. For this, they developed a new, advanced Hadron physics engine from scratch.
The creators also ensured full and comprehensive support for mods. Some of them are made available through a built-in "shop", where developers highlight the best content they have personally certified.

Project Motor Racing review: A full-price game that feels like Early Access
Project Motor Racing feels like a game in the very early stages of Early Access, rather than a title ready for its 1.0 release.
Although Forza Horizon 6 was delayed to 2026 (probably), the second half of 2025 will not be boring at all for racing fans. In the fall, the informal continuation of the Project CARS series - Project Motor Racing - will debut, which will feature an interesting career mode.

Project Motor Racing is one of the worst releases of 2025. A racing game released at the price of a big-budget title, it is in worse shape than some games that are released in Early Access. Tragic optimization, hopeless AI, poor graphics and UI, and the lack of a visual damage system are some of the most important elements that drag this game down to failure.
Screen Hype: 7 / 10 by Anthony Yates
Even at 60FPS, Project Motor Racing boasts some stunning visuals and a keen attention to detail you don’t see in every sim racing title. Cars visibly kick up debris and rubber from the track, which is a lovely touch, particularly in the cockpit view. On that note, birds take to the skies as you drive by, and it was especially noticeable racing around the infamous Green Hell. That attention to detail extends to the car models as well, and many of the vehicles sport a selection of liveries. I thought the visuals during my afternoon race at Monza looked a little washed out, but I discovered far more dramatic lighting when I set races for different times of day. Driving at sunset is breathtaking, and Straight4 Studios has crammed Project Motor Racing with plenty of stylish flourishes, like exhaust flames.

Verdict – A Brilliant Sim Trapped in an Unfinished Shell Project Motor Racing is a game of contradictions. Its physics are outstanding, offering one of the most satisfying driving experiences available on Xbox today. Its car classes feel distinct. Its tracks are enjoyable. Its wheel support is impressive. But everything surrounding that driving model — career mode, presentation, accessibility, AI behaviour, achievement design — simply isn’t ready. There is real potential here. With updates, patches, and refinements, PMR could grow into a top-tier sim racing title. But at launch, and after a hefty Patch it’s a game that feels more like a promising foundation than a complete package. For now, Project Motor Racing is a sim with brilliance under the hood, and frustration everywhere else. “Project Motor Racing delivers exceptional driving, but its surrounding systems desperately need work before it can challenge the best on Xbox.”
