Project CARS 3 Review - The Final Verdict
757Project Cars 3 achieves all of its success by throwing out major elements of what defined the previous games in the series. The game moves pretty far away from its more realistic, simulation roots. Instead it opts to lean heavily into simplified, arcade influenced racing and progression. And it's entirely understandable if that puts off fans of the older titles. If you're looking for a highly realistic racing game, Project Cars 3 probably isn't for you. But despite the sweeping changes it makes to the franchise, Project Cars 3 works because there's such a confident vision running throughout the entire experience. All of the choices and changes that the developers made play off of and compliment one another.
Every change made has a reason and serves a purpose. It's that singular philosophy, that clarity of vision that keeps the game from feeling like a simplified cash grab. Instead, the game feels like a daring departure, one that takes a lot of risks and will probably catch a lot of flak. But for those willing to take the risk, it's a lot of fun.
