We’ve just created a new video channel at Vimeo.com with all the best hot laps for all the tracks that we’ve created for Victory until now. We’re now working on the third world (the snow one), check back this channel to see the new and updated videos soon!

It’s a long video initially created for internal use only, but you can now watch it, it’s a complete walkthrough of the last available Alpha of Victory, where you can see the car creation, development and the market area. Enjoy!

Season’s greetings from all the Vae Victis’ team, I’m here to update you, our fans, partners and friends, on what we’ve done and what we’ll do next.

After two years of hard work we’re so happy to play Victory internally every lunch break and evening: it’s so awesome to play your own game! Soon you will play it too and we hope you will enjoy it as we are now.

All the team is now involved in the development of Victory, we’re finishing the 0.5 version, this is a major milestone for us as it includes the Market section.

We’ll take a brief pause during Christmas and then start the new year (and a new decade!) in full throttle mode to finish the development of Victory in march as expected.

We’ll be present at the 2010 San Francisco Game Developer Conference and we hope to announce the start of the closed beta at that important event.

Our plan is to have the closed and open beta during the Spring and then present the commercial version at the 2010 Los Angeles E3 Expo in June where our western publisher, Gamersfirst.com, will have a big event presenting a lot of great free to play new games.

There is no time more fitting to say “Thank You” and to wish you a Happy Holiday Season and a New Year of health, happiness and prosperity.

Enjoy the new Victory trailer, see you in 2010, the year of Victory!
