A brand new opportunity just opened up for PS5 gamers: a free trial of the latest PS5 title, allowing you to jump in and explore without limits. Nacon’s latest offering, the racing game Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown, is now open for free play from today until Tuesday, December 31. Enjoy all the action without content restrictions, though keep in mind that online play requires a PS Plus subscription.
As it stands, this free trial is exclusively available for PS5 users. It can be easily found on the PS Store. Although Nacon has hinted at future trials for other platforms, they’ve kept further details under wraps for now.
According to a post from the official Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown Twitter account, from December 27 at 9 AM UTC to December 31 at 9 AM UTC, players can dive into the world of Hong Kong Island and the bustling capital of Ibiza. Get ready to experience the thrill of driving exceptional cars at no cost!
Since its release in September 2024, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown has faced mixed reviews. The PS5 version scores a modest 55/100 on Metacritic, and on OpenCritic, it seems only 7% of reviewers are giving it a thumbs up.
Critics have pointed out issues, particularly with the game’s visual presentation and some unpolished elements, especially when compared to other racing games in the market. The game is listed as ‘PS5 Pro enhanced’ on the PS Store, yet it’s unclear how significant this enhancement truly is.
Now’s a perfect time to form your own opinion. Jump into the trial on your PS5 or PS5 Pro and see for yourself. However, Nacon hasn’t clarified if progress made during the trial will carry over to the full game, and this tidbit is missing from the PS Store’s trial details as well.
