System 3 has released more information on its upcoming PlayStation 3, Wii and Nintendo DS racer, Ferrari Challenge. The game’s primary mode is the Ferrari Challenge season in which players will race in a lifelike recreation of the Ferrari Challenge event at up to 16 circuits with the hope of becoming champion.

In addition to the Challenge season mode, players will also compete in Practice, Time Trial and Endurance modes. Online play is also promised with up to 16-players able to compete. The online play will reach its peak during the annual world online Ferrari Challenge Virtual Championships, the first to begin in January 2008.

The game will also be supported post launch with a host of regular new content, including cars, circuits, hill climbs and customisation options. System 3 is also saying it will offer new content at the start of each new Ferrari Challenge season, including official team and car rosters.

Further more, online functionality is to be enhanced through the ability to swap cars and collectable battle cards in the community.

Wii and DS versions share much the same feature set, both offering downloadable content. The Wii version won’t include online racing though, instead offering a Wii Remote driven control scheme. The DS version will, however, support wireless racing with up to four players on Game Share and four players over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.

All three versions of the game are currently scheduled for release on November 23, 2007.
