The European Truck Racing Championship is one of the most spectacular and challenging motor racing competitions. The driving difficulty and many unique race features have been faithfully reproduced with the KT Engine (WRC). In ETRC, like on real-life race tracks, you need to control the temperature of your brakes so they don't overheat.
You must also consider the weight of the truck when cornering, monitor tyre wear and find the best tactics for overtaking.
FIA European Truck Racing Championship is an excellent glimpse into a facet of motor racing seldom seen. It might lack the glitz and glamour of Formula One or Moto Gp, but don't hold that against it. We're going to keep playing this quite a while yet. Recommended.
Finally! Proof that racing trucks might be just as much fun as racing any other vehicle. The graphics feel a bit underwhelming though and empty online servers are always a bummer.
The penalty system, plus the capricious AI is quickly frustrating but FIA European Truck Racing Championship has many qualities that may speak to the racing truck fans.
If you enjoy long track races, and want a new challenge, ETRC is almost certainly that. However, if that’s not your thing, there is nothing this game does that will lure you over.
FIA European Truck Racing Championship is without a doubt one of the most original racing games we have played in years. However, that does not make the game worthwhile.
An admirably niche racing game which gets the look and feel of truck racing just right, but manages to get the single player career experience all wrong.
I love that FIA European Truck Racing Championship exists and I really hope such a niche title finds the right audience. Developer N-RACING has been faithful to the essence of truck racing, but it hasn’t been able to create the structure, close fighting, nor personality the series has to offer. Variety is good, and I really hope they can work on an improved sequel. For now, once the novelty has worn off, you are left with a pretty lifeless game.
