Assetto Corsa Game Updates

First confirmed just under a year ago in a developer diary discussing the future plans of Assetto Corsa, the Mazda 787B and first-generation MX-5 Miata have finally made their way to the racing sim as free bonus content.

Good news for Assetto Corsa players. Kunos Simulazioni has announced that two of the most iconic cars to wear the Mazda badge are coming to the game for free, while a previously-announced Porsche is inbound as well.

This is shaping up to be an action-packed start to the week for fans of Assetto Corsa. What began yesterday with the release of the third and final Porsche Pack and a new update for PS4 owners, continues today with release of the previously-teased Scotland-based fictional track and the Audi Sport Quattro S1 E2 for PC players.

Marco Massarutto, head of Kunos Simulazioni, has shared some insight into the development stages for the yet-to-be-released Scottish track headed to Assetto Corsa.

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:

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.

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.

If you play Assetto Corsa on consoles, chances are you’ve had a bit of a grass-is-greener feeling of late. The PC platform—the original home of the game—welcomed the third Porsche Pack DLC a few days before Christmas 2016, and over a month later, there’s still no firm date for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It sounds like that will be changing soon, however.

Late last week, Kunos Simulazioni announced that in an upcoming v1.12 console update for Assetto Corsa, players are to expect a slew of new Special Events. The offline affairs will revolve around the recently-included Red Pack and Porsche Pack Volume 2 downloadable content, as well as the highly anticipated finale to the Porsche content, Porsche Pack Volume 3.

After last week’s confirmation, console racers can rejoice as some of Italy’s and Stuttgart’s finest (in addition to a new premium racing circuit) have finally arrived in Assetto Corsa on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in the form of the Red Pack and Porsche Pack 2, respectively.

Following last week’s announcement, Assetto Corsa’s latest fictional circuit has been teased by Kunos in a selection of images released over the past few days. The free-of-charge circuit is supposed to be based in Scotland and it looks like Kunos has nailed the country’s dreary (yet beautiful!) look if these snaps are anything to go by.

It’s as they say: all good things must come to an end. After several days of teasing, PC players now have access to the third and final Porsche Pack for Assetto Corsa. Arriving alongside today’s finale is update 1.11 for the game, bringing with it an all-new Championship gameplay mode in addition to the following vehicles from the Stuttgart manufacturer:

A quick-fix update has landed for the PS4 version of Assetto Corsa. Weighing in at a relatively paltry 400 MB, it addresses a handful of issues:

Xbox One Assetto Corsa players have had a hard time lately. Not only did they have to watch from afar as PC players enjoyed the first Porsche DLC pack before them, but also the second collection of Stuttgart cars. Then, just as console gamers were promised access the former, a last-minute delay meant only PlayStation 4 sim racers got the update.

It’s been a long time coming, but Assetto Corsa players on PS4 now have access to Porsches in a current-generation sim. Porsche Pack Volume 1 arrives alongside the game’s 1.09 update today, bringing with it a classic layout of Silverstone and the following cars:

After months of teasing, Porsche Pack 1 is now available to PC players for Assetto Corsa. A bombshell announcement made earlier this year, the inaugural car pack pays tribute to the German marque, promising to deliver “the best Porsche experience ever.”

Always at the mercy of Microsoft’s approval process, Xbox One owners can finally rejoice: Assetto Corsa’s first major update is now available.

Things are looking to kick off on the right foot for console players this month, that is, if you’re currently playing Assetto Corsa on the PlayStation 4.

Kunos Simulazioni have released the first console patch for Assetto Corsa nearly a month after release. The patch addresses a number of issues brought to light by the community, and is now available on the PlayStation 4.
