Codemasters has announced Race Driver One, the third generation game in its critically acclaimed multi-million selling motorsport series. The game is in development at Codemasters Studios for leading console platforms and PC.

Race Driver One will be the next showcase for Codemasters’ Neon, the studio’s proprietary middleware system that has already been seen powering Colin McRae: DIRT. As such we can expect a new level of visual detail, physics and an “astonishing” car damage system.

Players will be challenged to become the number one race driver in a new world of motorsport, taking the player on a tour around the world to locations through Europe, the US and Japan. The game will feature the most extensive range of events the series has ever seen, combing official circuit championships with road races and urban street competitions.

Race Driver One is currently scheduled for release in 2008.
