Split/Second out May 21

The explosive racing game gains velocity.

Disney Interactive Studios has announced that Split/Second: Velocity will launch in Europe on May 21 for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. We're not sure when the game's title gained 'Velocity', but that's what Disney's now calling it.

The publisher will be doing all it can to ensure gamers are fully aware of the title come its launch.

"The response of the specialist and mainstream media to the game has been fantastic, and now we are eager to get the title in to people’s hands through product trialling as much as possible," said Disney Interactive Studios’ product manager James Thornby.

"We have a number of plans in place up to release and beyond, which will allow us to do this, including the Gadget Show Live in April. Ourselves and the studio at Black Rock are looking forwards to seeing the reaction."

Split/Second: Velocity is a racing game set in a fictional TV show and comes from the studio behind the rather good off-road racer Pure.
