NASCAR Heat 4 Gold Edition Announced
We’ve seen plenty of Collector’s Editions for announced games, but what is a Gold Edition? Developer 704 Games says there will be a limited-edition version of NASCAR Heat 4 this fall which will release alongside the regular version of the game. What makes it “Gold” though?
It’s the inclusion of NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon. The use of Gordon will be exclusive to the Gold Edition — you can race as him, use him as your spotter, and gain access to his Axalta paint scheme from Homestead-Miami Speedway, which was his final No. 24 paint scheme as a driver in the Cup Series for Hendrick Motorsports. NASCAR Heat 4 Gold Edition costs about 20 bucks more than the standard game ($69.99 vs $49.99), and only 20,000 copies will be sold. Also, the Season Pass is included, if that justifies the price a bit more.
“It’s a great honor to be featured in the NASCAR Heat 4 Gold Edition,” says Gordon. “NASCAR fans have really rallied around the NASCAR Heat franchise; it’s served as a tremendous platform for fans to stay engaged with the sport all year long. This game is as real as it gets. I’m excited to return to the track in this capacity, and I’m looking forward to my fans making me look good out there!”
NASCAR Heat 4 builds on its predecessor and sports a brand-new look and feel for race fans, complete with stunning visual and audio enhancements, an upgraded user interface and the introduction of new tire models for various track types, making for an even more realistic racing experience on 38 virtual tracks across the country. This fourth installment of the NASCAR Heat franchise also boasts a deeper career mode where players can operate and manage their own team and, for the first time, start in any of the four series included in the game.
NASCAR Heat 4 will be out this September for Playstation 4, XBox One and PC.
