Slightly Mad Studios & My.com are proud to announce World of Speed – a free-to-compete AAA massively multiplayer online action-racing game which introduces a new level of connected competition to the racing genre. Developed by the award-winning team at Slightly Mad Studios, World of Speed allows players to hop into the driver seat of their favorite cars and race across real world circuits and tracks carved from the streets of real world cities including London, Monaco and Moscow.

World of Speed introduces a new level of connected competition allowing players to team up and compete in an ever-expanding number of gameplay modes where completing team-based objectives determines the victor. Being the first to cross the finish line no longer guarantees your victory; it’s all about the Team! Players can also team up with friends and other players to form Clubs where they can customize their logos, earn access to a Club garage social hub, compete against other clubs, show off in the Airfield Playground and battle in high-stakes races in Territory Wars.

With Slightly Mad Studios behind the wheels World of Speed takes action-styled racing games into a new era by combining AAA HD graphics and visuals with the thrill and intensity of a massively multiplayer online competitive experience. In World of Speed you’ll be able to download the game, log in and compete in all levels of competition without ever spending a penny!

Designed as an evolving online experience, World of Speed will be supported with regular updates and the addition of new cars, tracks, gameplay modes and much more for years to come! Over the coming weeks and months we will reveal more about World of Speed including how you can sign up to participate in the beta so be sure to come back often to stay on top of the latest news and info.

As a Project Cars supporter this pisses me off, Slightly Mad Studios recently dropped a few platforms for Project Cars because they don't have enough manpower... and yet they have time and people to create a whole other game. Right, thanks guys. :/

Second F2P racing games have been horrible, every single one of them is expensive and designed to nickel and dime you. I don't see any reason this will be different.

Third as a huge racing game fan I'm really sick of being nickel and dimed... it's quickly becoming the most expensive genre. We already had the expensive wheels and setups... now it's DLC cars, tracks, even freakin modes! and this is all with a $60 box price! It's beyond frustrating and almost every good racing game is doing it now so it's near impossible to avoid.

I'm gonna reserve judgment until I can play it... maybe somehow they pull it out but seriously guys racing games are expensive sometimes to the point of nickel and diming with even a box price... just imagine how it's gonna be when the game is free or don't imagine just play a few of the F2P racing games already out D:
