Asobo Studio Is Reportedly Prototyping A Racing Game For Xbox

"Shpeshal Nick claimed that he’s heard about Asobo Studio working on an early prototype for a new racing game for Xbox that may actually be a kart racer." - September 2022.

Hmm, a coincidence? Starting with a Technical Director in January 2021 would certainly match up to 2022 being "early prototype" stages.

Don't know why it would have a notable Cloud component though.

Nick is literally always wrong, unless you count things he says that everyone else claims to have heard as well.

Not always but often, Lol.

These are a few things I remember him being accurate on.

He was wrong that it was a standalone expansion but he was right that it was set on the island of Ikishima, it was released as a Director's Cut expansion in 2021. As far as I can see, he leaked the island before anyone else, even a fellow reputable ResetEra leaker got mad at him for leaking it, Lol.

While he didn't leak the game, he did have screenshots of The Skywalker Saga and leaked those on his Twitter too.

I'm not sure if he was the first to leak the game but he leaked the name first which VGChronicles and InsiderGaming have backed him up on.

He leaked The Last of Us Part 1 Remake Footage.

Think he has also leaked some PS Plus titles in the past, as well as some Game Pass ones, he was also first to leak Neon White coming to Xbox, a couple months later it had an ESRB rating confirming the leak.

But, and it's a very big but, like I said, I avoid posting him, I wouldn't usually post him, because it feels like he throws out every single rumour he is told which means you have to take everything with a huge grain of salt and it makes it not worth posting, it feels like he has no credibility filter, Lol. But it is incorrect to say he is always wrong, he's just more wrong than right, Lol.

But since he is sometimes right, I can make the connections here because they DO connect without much stretching, it all looks a bit coincidental unless like I said, his source saw the Linkedin before everyone else and invented a fake story out of it.
