WRC 6 is set to arrive in the hands of players across the globe next month. It’s been a quiet summer, with our last serious look at the game being from Team VVV during its initial reveal at E3 2016. With the release inching closer, a new trailer has surfaced showing off more aspects of the game.

Earlier this month we reported that Kunos Simulazioni would be releasing a new patch on the console versions of the Assetto Corsa. However, aside from some vague comments about what the aim of the patch was, we didn’t have a full list of what to expect. That information has now been shared by the team and it looks like there has been some welcome improvements on both a technical and playability level:

The employees of Monster Games must be excited as NASCAR Heat Evolution is now out in the wild for public consumption. One of the most popular forms of auto-racing in the US has got a new title which focuses on accessibility to all type of players.

Okayama International Speedway brought an interesting turn of events for the 2016 All-Japan Formula 3 season. An unfortunate off-course excursion combined with mechanical difficulty during the second qualification session forced Jann to start from behind.

The Forza Horizon 3 demo has just gone live for Xbox One, weighing in at a little over 18GB. The celebrations aren’t over, as Xbox Canada is spending the next two weeks travelling across the country doing events inspired by what’s possible in Playground Games’ latest open-world racer.

The wait is nearly over, early access users have a mere 11 days left on the clock until the entirety of this year’s open world epic is available to them. For those without such a privilege, instead opting for the retail release, the wait is furthered an additional 4 days.

With Sony’s PlayStation conference last week finally making the PlayStation 4 Pro official, the benefits the system can bring to pre-existing PS4 games has brought hefty discussion in the racing genre community.

As the engine of eSports fires on all cylinders with the likes of GT Academy qualifiers, the Forza Racing Championship, and iRacing’s NASCAR PEAK Antifreeze Series, Cloud Sport and Formula E are looking to add a significant spark with the recently announced ‘Road to Vegas Challenge.’

There’s a local brewery that has gained a lot of fans in Toronto since it started selling beers at the turn of the millennium. Despite winning numerous awards, the team has bucked the craft beer trend of branching out, opting to exclusively stick to the original product their reputation has been built on. The motto? “Do one thing really, really well.”

According to an official NISMO Facebook post and AutoDeal, the currently-underway 2016 GT Academy season has found its first dozen Silverstone-bound finalists. This selection of drivers from North Africa and Philippines will compete in the International Race Camp this October at the famed British circuit.

When the off-track, open-world racer known as Forza Horizon was introduced to the gaming world in 2012, it was clear that the atmosphere of the Motorsport spinoff was just as much about the music as it was about car culture.

Earlier this week at the PlayStation Meeting, Sony officially pulled the wraps off of the eagerly anticipated and heavily-rumored upgrade to the original PlayStation 4 console, the PS4 Pro. Confirmed outright just days before E3 by Andrew House, the console, then known under the assumed codename ‘NEO’, is the first of its kind: a mid-cycle refresh harnessing more power than the original, and utilizing the capabilities of 4K resolution and HDR imaging.

Project CARS and Ginetta Cars have entered into a partnership to give competitors an opportunity to reap the rewards of a potential racing career, courtesy of the Ginetta x Project CARS eSports Cup.

Assetto Corsa has been in the hands of console players for the past few weeks and a common complaint is that the game suffers from multiple issues that hinder the overall playability. These issues include some of the more unwanted aspects of the sim racing industry like screen-tearing, frame-rate drops and iffy gamepad support.

Polyphony have let loose the latest batch of Seasonal Events in Gran Turismo 6. This week’s events are a combination of time trial and drifting challenges, testing your meddle at a variety of racing venues.

A slimmer, more power-efficient redesign of today’s readily-available PlayStation 4 was first speculated on earlier in the year when Macquarie Securities analyst Damian Thong spoke with the Wall Street Journal. Damian suggested the company would introduce the model, and with the company’s noted history of doing so previously, there was little doubt to be had.

The rumors of a more capable and better-equipped PS4 console, once referred to as the PlayStation 4K and PlayStation 4.5, has been a storied journey. Earlier this year, Sony’s Andrew House confirmed the development of this then mystery machine, putting an end to the longstanding rumors just days before E3.

Today’s a big day for tech brands. Apple kicked things off in San Francisco an hour ago, but for gamers, all eyes are across the country. Right in Times Square, Sony is set to present the future of the PlayStation brand at — appropriately enough — the PlayStation Theater. You can watch the entire event unfold from the official live stream posted above.

The worldwide release of Forza Horizon 3 is weeks away, but those looking to venture into Playground Games’ rendition of the Australian Outback may not need to wait much longer.
