The Swedes from SimBin must be getting really good at making racing games, because their latest project RACE, announced back in August, is already due for release next month. Today's news comes from Eidos / SCi Games, who turns out to be the game's publisher in European territories. According to their press release, RACE: The Official WTCC Game will ship to retail on November 24, 2006, for the PC.

"From acclaimed Swedish developers SimBin, RACE: The Official WTCC Game features the hard-hitting, intense action of the WTCC championship for the first time ever. Boasting the complete WTCC championship season of 2006, all the cars, drivers and locations, and a variety of difficulty levels to attract every gamer from hardcore simulation gamers to beginners.

With over 60 different and accurately modelled cars and 10 officially licensed tracks from four continents, the game features a highly detailed damage system, realistic AI opponents with sprint race attitude, dynamic weather effects, real world driver involvement and support for up to 26 players online."
