Bizarre Creations' new race, Blur, has been confirmed for release on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.

The game's site also claims that something - we assume the social networking side (more later) - will be coming tomorrow.

Activision has confirmed details, as follows:

"Gamers can use offensive and defensive attacks as they battle for the lead and careen through real-world track locations ranging from L.A. and San Francisco to the streets of Hackney, UK and the treacherous roads of Barcelona, Spain.

"We did our homework and saw a huge opportunity to move beyond traditional racers and create a game completely focused on making racing 'fun' again," said Martyn Chudley, Creative Director, Bizarre Creations before providing more waffle that you can read here if the need takes you.

But not as much waffle as.... "Blur's narrative is presented through Bizarre's innovative new community-based interface, reaching far beyond the game itself. This unique story-driving social network evolves dynamically as players compete in different races, make new friends, rivals and fans, and connect with other racers both in-game and in real life."

Social Network! Yes, more than a video game... it's a Social Network!

Oh dear gods no.

Anyway, in gaming detail:

- Team-based multiplayer races with up to 20 players online, or on a single console.
- 4-player split-screen.
- Custom Groups, where anyone can create unique multiplayer modes based on their favourite ways to play the game.

Finally... "Blur is planned for release this fall for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, and the PC, and is currently rated "RP" (Rating Pending) by the ESRB."

That's the news folks.
