Gamers, there’s an exciting opportunity on the horizon! A new PlayStation 5 game has just rolled out a free trial that’s sure to get fans revving their engines. Nacon has announced that you can jump into the driver’s seat of their racing game, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown, without spending a dime. Starting today and running until Tuesday, December 31, players can dive into this racing world with no content restrictions whatsoever. Just remember, an online PS Plus membership is needed to race against others.
While this free trial is restricted to PS5 users for now, Nacon hasn’t forgotten players on other platforms. They’ve hinted that similar trials are in the pipeline, though specifics remain under wraps.
As for now, if you’ve got a PS5, you’re in luck. The trial is readily available on the PS Store. But for those eagerly waiting for platform expansion, stay tuned.
Now, you might have heard mixed reviews about Solar Crown. Released in September 2024, the game hasn’t exactly dazzled every critic, landing a modest score of 55/100 on Metacritic specifically for its PS5 version. Moreover, only 7% of critics on OpenCritic have given it a thumbs up. A fair share of the criticism targets the game’s lackluster presentation and some rough patches, especially when lined up against its racing genre competitors. Despite bearing a ‘PS5 Pro enhanced’ tag on the PS Store, we’re still left wondering if that makes a noticeable impact.
But, why rely solely on reviews? Here’s your chance to form your own impressions. Whether you’re on a PS5 or PS5 Pro, take this opportunity to experience the game firsthand. Just a heads-up, it’s still unclear if your trial progress will carry over should you decide to get the full game. This info isn’t mentioned on the trial’s PS Store page either, so proceed with that in mind.
