CLUTCH Team Explains Story-Focused Racing Design at Gamescom
At gamescom 2026, Maverick Games' Mike Brown and Ben Penrose detailed CLUTCH, an open-world driving game set in Monaco. The title splits playtime between professional R1K circuit racing and the underground Midnight Collective, with a story by Skins writer Jamie Brittain. Brown, former Forza Horizon 5 creative director, said the narrative gives meaning to wins and losses.
