Maverick Games Maverick Games, an independent studio founded and led by Mike Brown, has unveiled its debut game Clutch. Brown used to work at Playground Games and served as the creative director of Forza Horizon 5, taking over from Ralph Fulton, and a designer for Forza Horizon 4. Maverick describes Clutch as a "cinematic open-world action driving game" with a narrative storyline featuring both story-driven pro circuit campaigns and underground race-and-chase matches.
Clutch revolves around sibling racing prodigies who joined the R1K, a competition that has served as the proving ground for top drivers over the past century. There's also an underground group called "Midnight Collective" with drivers "who love showing off their style and the raw thrill of speed." Apparently, the hero finds himself in trouble at some point and in need of a fixer, and that exposes the presumably dark underbelly of R1K.
