Today or yesterday, not sure quite when but the next game in the TEST DRIVE series was announced and we were close as it's actually titled Test Drive: Ferrari Racing Legends. Developed by Slightly Mad Studios and being published by everyone it seems, the game will be out in March [probably] and will be available for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3. Press Releases are available but not in English as far as I can see so the below is loosely and dodgily translated by Google but you can get the gist of it all the same.

 

Boxart appears to be shown also via Gamestop.

I don't like the idea of Ferraris only, but it looks darn good I think. Hopefully no one will make you drive a 458 :D

Remember NFS Porsche Unleashed? That only had Porsches and it was an epic game and probably one of the best NFS games ever made, so I think TDU Ferrari has potential.
