Do we still need to present the Car Mechanic Simulator series? A game that has inspired so many others thanks to its simple mechanism of disassembly, repair, reassembly. But since these beginnings in 2014, budding mechanics have been able to discover an evolving title that is not resting on its laurels. The 2021 version, coming out this August 11 on PC and 12 on PlayStation and Xbox consoles, no exception to the rule.
If you were players of the previous one version 2018, then you will not be disoriented. CMS 2021 is starting from the same bases. The goal is always to start a small garage owner and expand your business. How? 'Or' What ? By earning money and increasing your skill points, contract after contract. The supply of parts is always done via a computer or at the scrapyard. What changes here is the number of elements that can be dismantled: we go from 1.000 to 4.000! A leap forward possible thanks to the increase in the number of cars. Basically, the game goes from forty in the 2018 version, to 72 for this 2021 version.
In your workshop, which you will have to develop, you will still have the parallel activities other than pure mechanics, such as painting, adjustments, washing, and of course the tests on different tracks. The main novelties are above all of an aesthetic nature. Much more realistic car fluids, simply splendid rendering and lighting engine, vehicle sounds and improved physics. In short, under the hood (of the game), the developers have redoubled their efforts. And the first minutes of the game, which make you discover the magnificent open-air hangar will not contradict me.
At the mechanical level, we now have the opportunity to open the fuse box, to pass the cars to the rollers, to loosen the bolts with the "DW-04", or to straighten the crumpled sheets. This should again panic the game counters until the next episode. Especially since the first DLC are already announced: Nissan cars et electric cars will be available on the game's release day, August 11.
