Micro Machines V4 goes gold

UK publisher Codemasters' Micro Machines V4 is ready to race. The publisher today confirmed that development on the game has been completed and a gold master produced, from which retail copies will now be pressed. It is due for UK release on June 30 for the PC, PlayStation 2, and PlayStation Portable, with a Nintendo DS version in the pipeline. The game is set for a June 27 release in the US.

Micro Machines V4 pits up to four players against one other, racing around circuits taken from domestic environments while collecting weapon power-ups. Codemasters tapped Supersonic Software, the studio behind Micro Machines 2, Antz: Extreme Racing, and Pong: The Next Level, to develop the game.
