Reiza Studios goes Crowdfunding and hints a new game

Reiza Studios has announced that they have started a crowdfunding campaign to raise a complementary budget for their existing games in order to develop them further. The objective is to strengthen the existing platform over the next year and a half while the team focuses on the development of their new game.

You can support Reiza Studios by joining the Funding Campaign at the IndieGoGo platform.

To get the ball rolling, Reiza Studios recently licensed the ISIMotor source code. Up and till now, the hard-coded Reiza game engine only allowed them to add functionalities by means of plugins or code injections. With the fully licensed source code, Reiza Studios will be able to take their existing and new titles to a whole new level.

While the licensing deal is intended specifically for the development of a new Reiza Studios project, Reiza Studios is also planning to add new features and produce more cars and tracks for the existing games, and create a solid a structure to race them online.

Reiza Studios will aim to bring the following (and more) features to Game Stock Car Extreme & Formula Truck 2013.

• Graphics & audio enhancements
• Physics developments to include tire damage, realistic drivetrain modeling, enhanced FFB
• New hi-res UI design + HUD system customized for each car type
• Support for long distance races
• Automatic steering ratio adjustment + Support for more controller inputs & newer hardware
• A Custom championship tool so users can build their own seasons for offline racing.

Furthermore, Reiza will be providing an official Multiplayer Structure featuring:

• 4 dedicated servers running 24/7 under a defined scheduled featuring all our series, aiming to provide a go-to place for public multiplayer racing
• A Hotlap ranking feed from the servers
• Seasonal prize-giving official competitions.

 

As the main goal of the funding campaign is to expand the features, but also the content of the existing games, Reiza also revealed some of the cars and tracks that are in development.

• SuperV8 series
• Officially licensed Mitsubishi Lancer Cup series
• Copa Montana cars
• Rallycross-prepared Mitsubishi Evo X
• V8 Supertrucks
• Formula V10 (early 2000s F1 cars)
• Renault Fluence & Honda Civic to complete the series 2015 lineup
• Remodeling of the current F309 + addition of older F301 model
• Modern version of the Montreal street circuit
• Velo Cittá track
• Revamped Interlagos track to include all recent modifications
• Extra layouts to existing tracks + adaptations for SuperTruck racing (ramps!)

The big news is that Reiza Studios is planning to develop and release a new game by Q4 of 2016. At this time, Reiza Studios could not yet reveal in-depth details about the new game/Simulator but were willing to share some of the goals of the project.

• price estimated at US$ 39,99 (base package, not including DLCs)
