About Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown:

Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown (or TDUSC) is a Massively Open Online Racing game (M.O.O.R.) set on Hong Kong Island, recreated at 1:1 scale. A true racing, lifestyle and social experience, players can customize their avatar in their own image, become a member of a clan, explore the island and its 600km of roads, or take part in the many in-game competitions, at the wheel of exceptional cars.

 

Game features:

  • A faithful 1/1-scale reproduction of Hong Kong Island, with 14 activity-packed districts to explore, dynamic events and challenges to overcome, a story to discover and friends and foes to meet.

  • Over 100 official vehicles from more than 30 prestigious brands, including Porsche, Mercedes, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bugatti, McLaren, Aston Martin and more.

  • These cars have been passionately reproduced down to the finest detail, from their visual appearance and functionality to the sound of their engines, which have been the object of special attention for each model.

 

  • Playing fields to master, where each player must take into account the island's various environments, choosing the right car, configuration and driving style: from the narrow streets of the city center to the off-road mountain trails and the many beaches that make up Hong Kong Island

  • Lifestyle activities for all player profiles, whether they want to personalize their avatar by buying new outfits and accessories, visit car dealerships to test drive and buy their car, or meet other players in the Solar Hotel or Street/Sharp clan clubs.
