This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
Project CARS 2 for PlayStation 4
Project CARS 2 is a racing simulation with more than 180 licensed cars, varied disciplines and dozens of locations. LiveTrack 3.0 lets temperature, rain, puddles, rubber and seasons change grip, while a full day-night cycle shapes long events. The career moves from entry classes to championships and allows several motorsport paths. Steering-wheel support differs by model and must be checked separately. Online Championships and the Competitive Racing License were network features; the solo career remains the fixed content of this PlayStation 4 disc. Controls, player setup and edition details were therefore checked specifically for this PlayStation 4 version.
Project CARS 2 makes its core clearer as objectives, opponents or challenges demand more at once. Progress revolves around tyres, weather, track conditions and tuning in a racing simulation. New options change your approach, but timing, awareness and deliberate use of available resources remain important. This makes retrying a task with another route, setup or technique more useful than simply acting faster.
This description is based on the physical PlayStation 4 edition of Project CARS 2. The disc and the edition actually named are the baseline; codes, subscriptions, downloadable packs and later platform versions count only when demonstrably included with this copy. Network sections are described as original features, not as a promise that an external service remains available now or in the future.
Region and language
Our PlayStation 4 games are PAL editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
Project CARS 2 for PlayStation 4 was originally released without a printed manual. This edition therefore does not come with a separate instruction booklet. Its absence does not mean that an item from the original packaging is missing.
Instructions for the controls and rules are provided in the game. Any additional leaflets or advertising inserts are not manuals and are only included if stated in the product details. We use the label “No Manual” for copies missing a manual that was originally supplied. You should therefore not expect a printed booklet with this game unless a special edition explicitly states otherwise.
The history of Project CARS 2
Slightly Mad Studios developed Project CARS 2; Bandai Namco Entertainment released the PlayStation 4 edition on 22 september 2017. Its campaign, systems and presentation gave the game a distinct place in its series. This physical copy is assessed as the original PlayStation 4 release. Later updates, downloadable packs, remasters and sequels are not silently attributed to this disc. This keeps disc content, edition names and later services clearly separated.
This physical release preserves a defined version from its original console generation. Later expansions, patches, servers and reissues may have added or changed features, but are not attributed to this disc. Its original design choices and technical limits belong to this edition. Developer, release period and platform were therefore checked separately. Differences in controls, presentation and accessories between consoles are also stated where they affect what can actually be played.
This PlayStation 4 release of Project CARS 2 was checked separately for controls, presentation and delivery. The product title determines whether a regular, budget or No Manual edition is supplied. Historical network features are not promised as available; local matches, campaign or career on the disc remain the core of this version.
