Released?

@Timur9008: I could find very little post-'release' coverage, not even entries in various game databases (except for GameFAQs and OGDB). Are you sure this was ever released? Thanks! Jean-Fred (talk) 19:17, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes actually. If you check the old Bethesda press site(dated March 2000)it mentions the game was up for pre-order [1]. I'm guessing a limited number of copies were made. The game's release date was April 2000 Here is the interview mentioning this[2] (page 3)

Thanks for the answer!

Regarding the simracingnews interview − I can’t tell how long before April 2000 it was made, but however long, the game could have been cancelled in between I guess?

The press site is more convincing, but then it’s a primary source so not sure how that holds to en.wp’s policies

I am not much of an en.wp editor myself, and I have no particular interest either way ; so I’ll leave it at that.

Looks I was wrong, it was never released. Updated article with source for this. Timur9008 (talk) 19:21, 1 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
