EA has decided to end the Project Cars series. In a statement made to GamesIndustry.biz, the publisher confirmed that the series would be coming to an end, with Slightly Mad Studios staff being moved to other EA Sports and racing games where possible. Slightly Mad was acquired by Codemasters in November 2019 for $30 million, and as part of the deal Codemasters retained the rights to the Project Cars IP. Codemasters was then acquired by EA in 2021, giving EA the rights to all of Codemasters’ existing IP, including Project Cars.
