Last week we reported that the ESRB web site had posted up a new entry for a demolition derby-like racing game called Mayhem. Now Australian's ratings board has revealed that the game from publisher Evolved Games is being developed by Left Field Productions.

The California-based game developer has had some experience with driving games in the past, including its most recent release, the off-road themed SCORE International Baja 1000. That's pretty much all we know about this game but since ratings board for two countries have approved it the game is also likely to be released sooner rather than later.

What? ANOTHER off-road racing game? Yes apparently game developers and publishers believe we need to have a glut of titles featuring vehicles kicking up a lot of dust and tread. The latest entry in this suddenly popular genre is Score International Baja 1000, the officially sanctioned game adaptation of the famous super-long off-road race.

Activision is the publisher of the game which is being developed by Left Field Productions and the press release boasts that it will have over 90 vehicles across a number of different classes. The key is not just to finish the race first but to keep your vehicle intact while doing it. We will see if this new game will keep up with the competition when it is released for the PC and other platforms this fall.
