According to Darren Jobling (Eutechnix COO), the fifteen initial cars scheduled to be present in the beta are “the very tip of the iceberg in terms of automotive content for Auto Club Revolution. The free-to-play and online nature of our game means we are able to quickly add new batches of cars we have created on a regular basis.”
He also states: “As we build out the Auto Club Revolution’s game content, players can expect to find a huge range of cars, including historic, collectors and current models alongside exclusive previews and first looks at the concept cars of tomorrow.”


The Auto Club Revolution project seems indeed a quite ambitious one. The game is built on an engine with full simulation potential and sports full support from major car manufacturers that provided official CAD data to create the 3D models and approve each finished ride individually.
The application for the beta can be found on the game's official website.
