Gameplay Livestream of Action-Driving Game Clutch Will Be Showcased This Week

Maverick Games has announced it will be hosting a gameplay livestream of its upcoming open-world action-driving game Clutch on Thursday, June 25 at 9am PDT, noon EDT, 5pm BST, or 2am Friday June 26 AEST. The livestream will be hosted on YouTube by studio founder and Clutch creative director Mike Brown (principal game designer of Forza Horizon 4 and creative director of Forza Horizon 5), with art director Ben Penrose (associate art director on the original Forza Horizon, and art director on Forza Horizon 2 through to Forza Horizon 5). According to Maverick Games’ announcement, racing fans will get “a sneak peek into the game’s cinematic narrative and its star-studded cast, the speed of the R1K pro circuit, the style of the underground street racing of the Midnight Collective, and the high-speed race-and-chase chaos of heists.” Set on a sprawling map inspired by the iconic Mediterranean coastline of the French Riviera, Clutch will feature three city hubs (Monaco, Cannes, and Saint-Tropez). It will also feature a range of racing and driving action, with what appears to be a blend of exotic open-world driving, traditional circuit racing, street racing, and action-packed heists and pursuits. The latter will even feature a selection of wild gadgets, like a grappling hook, turning Clutch into a mad fusion of Forza Horizon, Need for Speed, and Fast & Furious. Clutch will launch in Spring 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Luke is a Senior Editor on the IGN reviews team. You can track him down on Bluesky @mrlukereilly to ask him things about stuff.
