Have you ever wondered what it would be like if the Singapore National Stadium and its surrounding areas around the Kallang area is turned into a racing track for cars?
Local e-sports and lifestyle brand Legion of Racers (LOR) is proud to announce the official launch of the highly anticipated Singapore Sports Hub digital twin track around and in the iconic venue in Kallang.
Spanning 4.1 kilometers long, this track is an impressive recreation of Singapore’s street and is the latest addition to LOR’s expanding series of virtual circuits.
It follows the success of the Orchard Road Street Circuit, Jakarta Semanggi Circuit, and Kuala Lumpur Street Circuit.
The Singapore Sports Hub track takes racers on an exhilarating journey through some of the city’s famous landmarks around the Kallang area.
Simracers will navigate through Sims Way, zip past the historic pre-war Geylang shophouses, and maneuver around the Old Kallang Airport.
The route also highlights other significant landmarks, such as the iconic Singapore National Stadium, Kallang Leisure Park and the Kallang Football Hub.
This track offers an exhilarating racing experience while simultaneously celebrating Singapore’s unique fusion of heritage and modernity, effectively capturing the city’s essence in the virtual racing realm.
The Singapore Sports Hub track would also be included in the roster of tracks for the upcoming HyperDrive Cities (HDC) Championship 2024, an international esports competition scheduled for later this year, with details to be announced within the next few weeks.
Melvin Moh, Co-Founder of LOR, stated, “It took about nine months to develop the Singapore Sports Hub Track, using LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data, combined with photogrammetry scans and thousands of on-site photographs.
“This thorough methodology guarantees the accurate representation of every detail, creating a highly realistic racing environment.”
As LOR launches their latest digital circuit, the frontrunners in the industry in this region remain dedicated to pushing the boundaries of digital motorsport.
The team is focused on developing cutting-edge tracks that merge real-world environments with the exhilarating pace of virtual racing, allowing players to enjoy the thrill of competition from the comfort of their homes.
Currently, LOR is in the development phase of its fifth digital twin circuit, with a focus on highlighting the iconic Changi Airport.
Moh added, “The upcoming track promises to be a technical marvel, featuring complex modeling of numerous buildings and assets.
“We expect the project to be completed within the next year or two, further expanding LOR’s digital racing universe.”
Legion of Racers will be releasing the latest version of the track on Patreon from 4 November onwards.
Simracers who are keen to download the track can search under HyperDrive Cities on the platform.
