Bizarre Creations’ latest racing title Blur got off to a relatively slow start sales wise, but nonetheless the company still plan on making Blur into the number one racing franchise by releasing further games in the coming years. Blur received mixed reviews from the media, with myself personally loving the game and the intense, 20-player online racing providing some true edge of your seat action and therefore I’m thrilled to hear Bizarre Creations’ have high hopes for Blur.

“[Blur] came out at the same time as ModNation Racers and Split/Second. It rates incredibly highly and it’s a very popular game, and I think it’s going to be a slow-burner,” said Nick Davies, the games design manager.

“I think the multiplayer will stay for a long time and I think people will come back to that time and time again, long after some of the other games have gone back to the second-hand shelf.”

He added: “Blur’s a fantastic game, and it’s the start of a big franchise for Bizarre.”

When asked about a possible Blur 2, Davies replied: “That’s the plan, yeah.”

“I don’t work on the Blur team specifically so I can’t speak for them, but it’s always been the plan to make the number one racing franchise. That’s as much as I can say!”
