Midnight Club: Los Angeles on the 360 and PS3 has been pushed back to an October release. The 4th game in the popular Rockstar racing franchise will obviously take place in the streets of Los Angeles, taking cues from the recent Burnout Paradise in its open world structure.
This type of racer worked for some people, while some found it too open, and missed set tracks to race on. But there’s no reason why we can’t have both types of racer, is there. With the even more recent Race Driver GRID becoming one of the best racers in recent memory, Midnight Club will have to try hard to top it.
News was also released regarding the PSP version of the game, which will a completely new title, dubbed Midnight Club: LA Remix. This bodes well for the handheld title, and hopefully by being a separate game, it will feel more at home on Sony’s smallest console.
Both games are set to be released in October, and you can check out the press release in full by clicking through.
