Ace Racer was showcased at the Game Developers Conference between March 20th and 24th, where they demonstrated the technological advancement achieved.

The developers have made the best of both worlds, giving players the latest technologies and techniques for the most immersive gameplay feel.

At the event, the developers spoke of how such photorealism is possible in mobile games and the challenges associated with it. They delivered a presentation which focussed on how to strike a balance between visuals and performance and the optimization of the entire process.
