Company: Focus Interactive
Date: 18 Jun 2008
With only a few days to go before launch, we’re pleased to release another set of completely new images from Pro Cycling Manager 2008.
The 2008 edition of Pro Cycling Manager is a major step for the famous sport series from developer Cyanide. The game features improved racing graphics, a new lighting system, more detailed backgrounds and incredibly realistic rider models and animations. The management aspect also offers more depth and realism due to the new tools and systems available. Plus, for the first time, as shown in our previously released video, you can now compete in professional track cycling.

In Pro Cycling Manager 2008, you become the general manager for one of the 65 official cycling teams and handle all aspects of a professional team’s season. Choose the squad, search for new talent, take charge of races, organize contracts and training schedules and even look after the finances. All these duties will let you experience an intense season.
During the 180 real-time 3D playable races, including the famous Tour de France 2008 which is perfectly rendered, it is up to you to determine the best strategies by combining tactics such as attacks, supplying, relays, leader protection, etc. There is a wide variety of race commands and actions that put you in total control during intense stages.
The new features combined with the already outstanding gameplay of the Cycling Manager series ensure that this is the best experience of the professional cycling world ever!
Pro Cycling Manager/Le Tour de France 2008 will be released in Europe by the end of June on PC and PSP.
