Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown was initially scheduled to release in September 2022 on PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch. However, this is no longer the case as KT Racing and NACON have decided to cease development for the PS4 and Xbox One.

In a blog post on Steam dated May 18, 2022, KT Racing and NACON announced that they were canceling the development of Solar Crown for last-gen consoles:

Finally, with the aim of making the most of the technology in the latest consoles and maximising the overall quality of the game, NACON has decided to no longer develop Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

While this news must be disappointing to previous-gen owners, it also means the developer's vision of a 1:1 recreation of Hong Kong will be of much higher quality since they are only focusing on modern hardware.

That said, old-generation console owners now need to upgrade to a PS5 or Xbox Series X/S to enjoy the game.
