In this week’s Traxion Podcast episode, we deviate from the usual theme and discuss the recent big news from the world of racing games, sims and peripherals. Hear the team discuss and speculate about F1 2021, Fanatec, WRC 10, Thrustmaster, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown, MotoGP 21 and RiMS Racing are among the topics.
Traditionally, there is a news splurge for E3 around June for video games, with big titles releasing in March and then on the run up to the holiday season at the end of the year. But, in the racing community, April in 2021 seems to have been a big month, with new hardware, reveals and teaser trailers.
Which one of these announcements got you the most excited? Let us know in the comments, we’d love to hear what you think about all of these topics.
