The talented folks at Eden Games have worked tirelessly to perfect their latest offering. The 30-strong team, based in Lyon, France, has spent nearly three years developing Gear.Club, ensuring all elements of the game match the exceptional standards expected by today’s sophisticated gaming society. The game debuted on Apple TV 4th Generation as a launch-window title where it has been the #1 overall app in 25 countries as well as the #1 grossing app in 10 markets.
In this realistic driving experience, car-lovers can collect, upgrade and customise some of the most gorgeous, exotic vehicles in their performance shop and enjoy exquisite details, such as engines and interiors, in fully-rendered 3D.
Speaking about the development of Gear.Club, Eden Games founder David Nadal explains: “We individually simulate every mechanical element relevant to how a car behaves. Fidelity is key and we are proud that our game engine can reproduce subtle nuances that a true car fan will be able to feel. In Gear.Club every car behaves differently; some are more agile, some understeer. This is quite rare, if not unique, in the mobile space. Furthermore, all the data you see in the game is in line with reality.”
Eden Games has a robust heritage for developing racing games, with the simulation, physics and realism of Gear.Club being a result of the company’s 20+ years’ experience in research, engineering and iterative design. The gaming powerhouse has already achieved success with highly-acclaimed games such as the V-Rally franchise, Need for Speed: Porsche and Test Drive Unlimited, among other major hits on various consoles.
To achieve the realism experienced in Gear.Club the team at Eden Games has worked extremely closely with the featured car manufacturers. The designers painstakingly replicate each model, ensuring the style and original spirit of each car is upheld and that the manufacturers can cherry pick the design that best reflects the real-life product.
“When manufacturers see the respect we have for their products and how meticulous we are, we can establish a very constructive dialog. Cars is our religion and I think this transpires when they talk to us, which is why they trust us as much as they do”, says Nadal.
Gear.Club, is now live in all Apple App Stores worldwide for iPhone and iPad users while pre-registration is open for Android users. Pre-Registration members will be able to gain a head-start by winning great virtual items and prizes, the most coveted of which being the chance to start the game with an exclusive special edition car.
