Well according to IGN it's official. Plus the website has been launched.

 

UK' date=' [/b'] March 3, 2010 - Atari's announced a sequel to the ambitious open world racer Test Drive Unlimited, slated for release on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC towards the end of the year.

 

Developers of the first Test Drive Unlimited Eden Games are back on board, and it marks its first effort since the divisive Alone in the Dark. 2008's Test Drive Unlimited offered a gloriously open-ended take on the Hawaiian island of O'ahu that blended offline and online play, though the ambition wasn't quite met by the execution and the game racked up an 8.0.

 

New features for the sequel include weather effects, a day and night cycle and modelled damage, as well as an all-new island that, if images from Test Drive Unlimited 2's freshly launched website are to be believed, looks to be set somewhere on Europe's sunny southern coasts.

 

We'll be looking to bring you more on the game as soon as we can.[/Quote]

Looks to be good news, just need to wait for an official press release from Atari and then we can remove the question mark! :monkeydance:

 

Thanks to various members for info!

After months, nay years, of rumours this does seem promising. Already taken a look at the official website, it's up and running but it only shows 3 screenshots, nothing else. From what i've read there's speculation that TDU2 will be set on Ibiza, but nothing seems confirmed just yet.

 

Also came across one website that said the expected release was Autumn 2010, but again this is not official as far as I know. Hopefully more will come to light soon.
