Real Racing 2 preview video, more details

Here's some in-game footage from Real Racing 2, the game is still in active development and as Firemint now have licensed cars, everything is a little more involved.

However, they've just shot a quick video (with an iPhone 4!) of a preview build of Real Racing 2 to give you a small taste of what's to come. The video shows the Nissan GT-R (R35) and you'll also notice that they have added a mini map, which was a popular request. The HUD can be turned off if desired.

They love racing games, and they're building Real Racing 2 to be the kind of premium game they would enjoy playing themselves: incredibly fun, with beautiful graphics, intuitive controls and lots of content. The career mode alone will easily provide 10 hours of gameplay: win races to earn in-game currency and reputation. Buy and sell cars, unlock new tracks and championship events to progress your career. Customise your cars by adding performance enhancements or respraying.

They are aiming for a pre-Christmas release and the game will support iPhone 2G and iPod touch 1, up to the latest devices with a particular focus on bringing out the best of the iPhone 4 and iPod touch 4 hardware.
