Leak suggests that Rockstar is rebooting a forgotten franchise
Midnight Club is an arcade racing series whose last entry was released almost a decade ago, but according to a recent post on Reddit, Rockstar might have a new Midnight Club game in the works.
A screenshot reportedly taken from a Rockstar developer’s Xbox Live profile shows a start screen with the Midnight Club logo and an overlay of the Xbox One’s start button.
A second screenshot shows the model of a Nissan Skyline GTR.
The account linked to the images has a gamerscore of zero and has since been scrubbed of any and all information except for a profile picture showing Lara Croft, which can be seen in the images. It’s not like this would be difficult to fake, but we’re going to think optimistically and believe that a new Midnight Club is in the works.
What kind of game it would be is a totally different story. Considering the only games in the series with licensed cars are Midnight Club 3: Dub Edition and Midnight Club: Los Angeles, a remaster of the original Midnight Club is unlikely. What seems more likely, if these screens are legitimate, is that Rockstar is working on a complete reboot of the series.

Midnight Club LA was my favourite car drifting car to play on the Xbox 360, the memories I do miss them very much. I would like to see the series coming back for sure. Make it happen!

Ahh, Midnight Club Dub Edition 3 Remix was my childhood. I spent so many hours / days playing that game on the PS2. Looking forward to see what R* does with this.

I loved playing Midnight Club LA when I was younger. Would love for the series to make a return. Hopefully this turns out to be true and not a hoax.
