So. The secret’s out – Driver: San Francisco is coming, and it’s coming this holiday season for PS3, 360, PC and Mac, with a separate Wii title on the way.

VG247 were in Newcastle at Ubisoft Reflections two weeks ago to check out the game before its reveal at Ubisoft’s press conference earlier tonight.

But could this be the return Driver has desperately been needing since Driver 3? Hit the jump.

Driver is back. And it’s back in a big way. Reflections co-founder Martin Edmondson is keen to reflect that.

The just-announced title is coming back to San Francisco, with the location teased in a video last Monday, having been in the first title in the series.

Having not been around for the development of the last title in the series Parallel Lines – Edmondson resigned from Reflections after the backlash aimed at Driver 3 in 2004 – he’s back in the hotseat for development of the title as creative director alongside studio manager and brother, Gareth.

We spoke to Martin at Reflections’ studio in Newcastle a couple of weeks back. It’s a massive interview that covers most aspects, from the new feature Shift to the transition at new owner Ubisoft, how it’s handling the hardware of this generation, and how the series has returned to its original roots of a driving-only title.

You need to see it to believe it. Hit the jump.
