Slightly Mad Studios and BANDAI NAMCO Games Europe S.A.S today confirmed that Project CARS will be available for PlayStation� 4, Xbox One and PC on April 2nd 2015.

The slight shift of the release date is due to final adjustments in the game, that are required to provide to the fans with the best gaming experience they could have.

We assure you the wait will be worth it when the game does arrive early April".

Crowd-funded by a passionate community that has been involved in the development process from day-one to create their ultimate racing experience, Project CARS includes the largest track roster of any recent racing game, a huge variety of motorsports to play, a freeform and authentic career mode, world-class graphics and handling, dynamic time of day & weather, and a suite of community features and connectivity that leave the competition behind in the dust.

After many games releasing in a broken state, makes sense to get better quality out the door then dealing with having to wait for patches to go through the approval phase.

Game gets pushed back more then Lebron James hairline. I guess its a good thing if and when it is released its polished but only time will tell.

As long as it's good when it comes out.

I'm in NO hurry. Take your time guys. I'd rather wait for a game to be good instead of playing a rushed game and hoping for patches.

Anyone have suggestions?
