How do you compete as the navigator?
In the same way you compete as a
navigator in the real world rallies, by
calling the corners for the driver. The
driver of the car can be either an AI
driver or another person playing the
game, allowing for some really innovative
co-op multiplayer action.
Will there be a European release?
We are distributing the game digitally
rather than the traditional bricks and
mortar store method so yes you can expect
a release in Europe.
Will this be on Console or PC?

for Targa Tasmania: The Game.
1) At launch the game will be available for PC (Windows and OS X)
2) Later it will become available for mobile (iPhone and Android)

Will there be the actual drivers to drive as?
Simple answer no.
Rather than limiting the player to taking on another drivers persona, we are keeping the profiles free for you to enter your name or if the prefer, the driver of your choice.
We saw the use of actual driver names as redundant, this being because the time the player spent competing as the other driver lasts from the menu screen until the first corner of a stage, after that its back to the player's skill to drive the car rather than the rally champion.
Unfortunately, changing your name to 8 times Targa Champion Jim Richards wont make you drive like him.
