Codemasters has confirmed today that the PSP release of TOCA Race Driver 2: Ultimate Racing Simulator (or just plain old TOCA 2), will be heading to the PSP during quarter 2 (which is between April and June). This is despite the fact that we Europeans still don’t even have a release date for the hardware itself. Still, you’d think Codemasters would have more of an inkling in that regard.
The game covers a number of racing disciplines over a variety of championships, and it is probably best left to the official press release to fully describe the depth of the title:
