Gear.Club Unlimited is finally making its big return, and it’s coming in hot. After years of fans wondering whether the series had a future, Eden Games has confirmed that Gear.Club Unlimited 3 is officially launching on February 19, 2026, as a Switch 2 timed exclusive, with releases on other platforms later in the year. And yes — it looks like the team is going bigger than ever before.
What’s New This Time?
Gear.Club Unlimited 3 is aiming to feel more like a full racing sim rather than the more arcadey style the franchise started with.
The developers claim that the car handling and physics have been improved. They are also taking full advantage of the Switch 2’s upgraded hardware. This means better visuals and smoother framerates. The game should look significantly better than its predecessors.
They are also improving the career mode. The mode will include a full progression system, which includes things like team management, car development, and an overall better race weekend. Instead of just hopping from event to event, the mode will be more progression-focused and dynamic. Overall, the career mode is getting a major rework and should have a lot to do for players than just quick races.
Customization is a major focus, too. From a broader tuning system, cosmetic upgrades, to a garage that lets you tweak your lineup in more detail than past games allowed. They’ve also teased a “surprise feature” tied to online competition, though they haven’t fully revealed what that means yet.
And of course, it wouldn’t be a Gear.Club title without a big roster of licensed cars. Eden Games hasn’t announced the full list, but they confirmed that real manufacturers and performance-focused models will return.
Gear.Club Unlimited 3 launching on Switch 2 first makes sense, considering the series’ history with Nintendo. However, with versions planned for other platforms later in 2026, it appears that Eden Games aims for this entry to reach a much wider audience. After a long wait, it feels like the franchise is finally ready for a proper comeback, and what’s promised gives us reason to be excited.
