After a lengthy trial of patience, PlayStation 4 players will be the first to have access to the third and final Porsche Pack for Assetto Corsa. Arriving alongside the final volume is update 1.12 for the game, adding 40 new special events in addition to the following racing machines (and sports cars) from the German marque:

For those looking to get just a sample of what iRacing’s upcoming dirt expansion will contain after last week’s screenshot, you are in luck. More footage of the update has been revealed thanks to a new video uploaded to YouTube.

The Autódromo José Carlos Pace, better known as “Interlagos”, is on its way to Project CARS 2.

Gran Turismo 2 was the host to an impressive number (and variety) of racing machines, and whether the vehicles be race-modified to emulate their real-world counterparts, or the tried and true machines themselves, there’s quite a bit more to these cars than one would expect.

Looks like things are going to heat up very soon in Assetto Corsa. After the team outlined plans for the game at the end of 2016, Marco Massarutto has taken to his usual role on his Facebook page, and has once again begun teasing a wealth of upcoming content for the racer.

The latest in high-end racing wheel technology will be coming to the Fanatec line of wheels, according to a post by the company’s CEO on the private iRacing forums. ‘Direct Drive’ has been the focus of much attention in the sim racing peripheral space recently and Thomas Jackermeier ensures that Fanatec has not been unwise to this – with products of their own planned.

Walk down the toy aisle of any discount department store and you’re bound to find merchandise based off the hottest properties in gaming, from Minecraft to Halo. Strangely however, racing games have always been somewhat isolated from that phenomenon — or at least until very recently. Last year, both Gran Turismo and Forza partnered with Hot Wheels on multiple occasions to release lines of diecast cars from their respective series.

In order to push the impression of driving a real car to the maximum level possible, sim-racing accessory manufacturer Fanatec has launched an improved version of their popular pedal set, the ClubSport V3. Inverted mounting points for the brake and clutch along with a longer range of travel are all designed to make the set feel more realistic.

With the leaked trailer, official trailer and general information blowout, you’d be forgiven for feeling overwhelmed with all the latest coming out about Project CARS 2. Here’s a quick summary of everything we know so far. There’s a lot to get through, so let’s begin!

Polyphony have pulled the trigger on the latest Seasonal Events for Gran Turismo 6. This week’s events take you to three well-paced technical circuits where attack speeds are the key to victory. Three challenge levels cover this week’s events, giving you a choice of capable sporting metal.

Amongst all the hype surrounding the recently-revealed DiRT 4 and the upcoming DiRT Rally support for PlayStation VR, Codemasters continue to expand the DiRT brand with the announcement of DiRT Rally coming to Linux platforms very soon. The critically acclaimed rally simulator makes the jump from PC just over a year from launching on Steam’s early access platform.

Now that we’ve formally had the cover removed on Slightly Mad Studios’ Project CARS 2, many YouTube videos showing off the game have been revealed to the public.

After four days of teasing on the Project CARS official Twitter account, Slightly Mad Studios has revealed the first official trailer for the highly-anticipated Project CARS 2. The latest entry in the series, which will launch this year, makes it’s debut in the 60-second video which gives us some more insight into the cars, environments and tracks we can expect from the game.

After having its trailer leaked at the end of January along with an interesting but mysterious Twitter countdown, Project CARS 2 plans on hitting even bigger feats than its predecessor. One of these feats is something that many racers will admire: laser scanned tracks.

It’s been a long and arduous effort for console racers, but next week, February 13, PlayStation 4 players will be the first to finally have their hands on the third and final Porsche Pack for Assetto Corsa.

When Assetto Corsa landed on consoles last summer, it received a mixed reception. In our own review of the game, we found the much-lauded physics and force feedback were tempered by a general lack of polish. To its credit, Kunos Simulazioni has been constantly working on the game since, both by bringing new content, and refining the game’s existing features and performance.

The slow trickle of information regarding iRacing’s highly-anticipated dirt expansion continues with this latest picture, showing us a preview of modified NASCAR Camping World trucks sliding along Eldora Speedway.

After an AMA session was held on the official DiRT subreddit with questions answered by DiRT 4’s Chief Games Designer, a plethora of juicy new details were revealed about Codemasters’ upcoming creation. That’s not to say its current game has been left behind to eat the dust, though.

Following a leaked trailer last week, Project CARS 2 is now being officially teased on the Twitter account for the series. The countdown began on Saturday and it looks like come Wednesday we’ll have some sort of reveal for Slightly Mad Studios’ latest racer, given the cryptic numbers that have been appearing.
