Slightly Mad Studios' next-generation racer, Project Cars, will launch on Friday, November 21 in the UK.

The release date was announced via the British retail chain GAME on its Twitter feed, though international dates were not specified.

By convention, it would suggest that Project Cars' release date across North America would fall on Tuesday, November 18, but publisher Namco Bandai has not confirmed this and was unavailable for comment at the time of going to press.

Project Cars features highly detailed vehicles with a focus on racing simulation, much like the Forza Motorsport and Gran Turismo series.

It will ship first on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, with the PC and Wii U versions delayed until an unspecified date in 2015. The PC version will also carry Oculus Rift support, making it one of the first racing games to support virtual reality.
