It looks like Real Racing 3 might be closer than we thought, after an eagle eyed member of the PocketGamer team spotted EA and Firemonkeys's high quality racer in the Game Center list of EA marketing guru Ben Clarke.

If it's on a Game Center list, that means it must have been approved by Apple, and if it's been approved by Apple, that means it should be with us in the next few days. We've already shown you a couple of developer diaries in the past couple of months, so no doubt you're as excited as we are by the news.

PG reports that there are 65 achievements to unlock in the game, and at least 40 different cars for you to collect and race on tracks from all across the world. We'll keep you up to date with the official launch date, but don't be surprised if this time next week we're all obsessed about paint jobs and repairs.

If you need something to keep you going in the meantime, why not check out our review for the previous entry in the series by clicking here. Then we can all cross our fingers and hope that the new game is as good as that one.
