Test Drive Unlimited 2 is an open world racing game in the Test Drive series, and the second entry in the Test Drive Unlimited sub-series. The game allows players to drive a variety of cars and motorcycles around recreations of the Hawaiian island of Oahu, which returns from the first game in a refreshed form, and the Balearic island of Ibiza, which is new to the series.
The game was released on Windows on February 8, 2011 and includes the Ferrari 458 Italia from the PlayStation 3 release, but lacks the Xbox 360 exclusive Spyker C8 Aileron Coupé. More than 7 years after its release, in November 2018, the official online services were shut down.[1]
As the online services have been shut down only local modes are available for play unless a community server is used to restore online functionality.
