00:00Hey, we've spent the last three and a half years cooking something pretty cool,
00:06something that I think you're going to really like. This is a game about the love of driving,
00:12about the connection between car and driver, and the raw thrill of speed. Welcome to Clutch.
00:43So Clutch is the story of a pair of sibling racing prodigies competing in the R1K racing series.
00:50The R1K is a prestigious and historic series that's been the proving ground of the world's
00:54best drivers for a hundred years.
01:05But away from the pomp and the pageantry and commercialism of the R1K is the Midnight
01:11Collective, a group of car enthusiasts who don't care about the money and the fame of the R1K.
01:16They care about the love of driving and the raw thrill of speed.
01:28So on this project, we've really had the benefit of time. It's actually the longest development of
01:33any game I've ever worked on, and that's allowed us to make some big investments that I know you're
01:37going to really appreciate. Using our custom version of Unreal Engine 5, we've been able to achieve a
01:43level of detail and accuracy never before seen in in-game car models.
01:50Every exterior curve, every fleck of paint, every interior stitch,
01:54every groove of tyre wear recreated perfectly.
02:00And on older cars, there'll be signs of wear, signs of love, signs that the cars have actually been
02:06driven, been on an adventure.
02:15But all of this, it's not just a static presentation. A part of the joy of car ownership is that
02:20sense of
02:21connection between the car and the driver. And that's why we've pushed to set a new benchmark in
02:26car customization.
02:29From the options you'd select when you're speccing out a brand new car, to those aftermarket parts that
02:33allow it to become that true one of one, to those little human details that make it really feel
02:48like it's your car. Things like the coffee cup you're mean to throw away, those parking tickets and
02:53receipts strewn across the dashboard, that hoodie slung on the passenger seat, the fluffy dice hanging
02:58from the rear view mirror.
02:59We haven't made fluffy dice.
03:00We haven't made fluffy dice. Okay, all right. Well, we haven't made fluffy dice,
03:03but we will make fluffy dice. And anything else you want to see, just let us know and we can
03:06add that as well.
03:12Now, we talked about the R1K and the Midnight Collective, but in the early part of our game,
03:19our hero gets himself into a spot of trouble. A spot of trouble that leads him to look up the
03:23services of a
03:24fixer. And in doing so, we smash open the doors to the underworld beneath the glitz and the glamour of
03:30the R1K.
03:34And whether it's in a high-speed getaway or if you're just out exploring this beautiful open world,
03:40Clutch Tech mods have new ways to move through the world at speed.
03:45If you're watching this live, then in about 45 minutes, you'll be able to see reactions from key content
03:50creators who've recently visited us here at Maverick and got hands-on with Clutch.
03:55And if you want to see more of Clutch, then you don't have long to wait. Lock in to Summer
03:59Game Fest,
04:00where you'll be able to see the world-exclusive premiere of the Clutch trailer.
04:04And that will reveal the location the game is set in, as well as the stars of our cast.
04:09So for now, lock in, follow us on all of our channels. I love you all. We'll see you soon.
04:13Goodbye.
04:20Bye.
