Clutch Gameplay Livestream Scheduled for This Week

Maverick Games has announced a gameplay livestream for its upcoming open-world action-driving game Clutch, set for Thursday, June 25 at 9am PDT, noon EDT, 5pm BST, or 2am Friday June 26 AEST. The stream will air on YouTube, hosted by studio founder and creative director Mike Brown (lead designer on Forza Horizon 4 and creative director of Forza Horizon 5), alongside art director Ben Penrose (associate art director on the original Forza Horizon and art director for Forza Horizon 2 through 5). According to the announcement, racing fans can expect "a sneak peek into the game’s cinematic narrative and its star-studded cast, the speed of the R1K pro circuit, the style of the underground street racing of the Midnight Collective, and the high-speed race-and-chase chaos of heists." Set on a sprawling map inspired by the French Riviera, Clutch features three city hubs—Monaco, Cannes, and Saint-Tropez—and offers a mix of exotic open-world driving, circuit racing, street racing, and action-packed heists with gadgets like a grappling hook. It blends elements of Forza Horizon, Need for Speed, and Fast & Furious. Clutch launches in Spring 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
