'Assetto Corsa' (ALL) Porsche DLC Coming This Fall - Trailer

by Rainier on June 17, 2016 @ 5:00 p.m. PDT

Assetto Corsa is a racing game designed to provide a very realistic driving experience, with single player and multiplayer options, officially licensed cars and tracks developed using the highest level of accuracy possible in reproducing real world motor racing environments.

Assetto Corsa is regarded as one of the most authentic racing simulators on the market. Aptly branded “Your Racing Simulator,” Assetto Corsa ups the simulation stakes by emphasizing and focusing on pure physics realism, with precision accuracy across every aspect from the meticulous car handling to the laser-measured tracks.

The standout stars of the game are of course the cars themselves; Assetto Corsa has partnered with the most prestigious automotive manufacturers to license life-like models of the genre’s biggest stars, from Ferrari to Fiat, from McLaren to Mercedes-Benz, and Automobili Lamborghini to Lotus Cars.

Players are able to further deepen their playing experience by adjusting the handling and race set-up of each and every car in-game, whereby cars can be individually tuned to cater for your personal racing style. The overall racing experience can be further modified by adjusting everything from driver attributes to collision damage, to deliver a thrilling and true racing experience. All of these features together breed the realism that Assetto Corsa is known and celebrated for.

After more than 12 years away from the hardcore sim-racing world, the Porsche Brand will be available as exclusive DLC content available for the PC and forthcoming console editions of Assetto Corsa. Assetto Corsa has established itself as the leading and benchmark PC racing simulation experience thanks to its focus on purity of handling, accuracy of cars & tracks, and the trust of automotive partners to feature premium licensing content and top class manufacturers.   The close partnership extends to the creation of 2 DLC packs that will deliver the most accurate Porsche experience for fans and motorsport enthusiasts worldwide across a variety of classic and new Porsche models alongside the provision of customised software for virtual experiences worldwide at selected Porsche dealer and race centers.

Marco Massarutto, Executive & Licensing Manager at Kunos Simulazioni: “I can't describe how proud we are about this partnership with Porsche, and how exciting it is to bring back the Brand into the sim-racing world: this Autumn, Assetto Corsa will be the only multi-platform title to have the Porsche brand in a genuine racing simulation experience. The gamers and our fans really want to have the chance to DRIVE the Porsche cars in a realistic manner. It's a privilege, and a big responsibility for us; we are working closely with Porsche with the aim to reproduce each single model with the maximum accuracy, and the fact that the same simulation will be used at Porsche race centres will push our team even more to provide the best Porsche virtual experience ever.”

Key Features:

  • Over one hundred high-performance  cars, including the Team Lotus 98T, the Pagani Zonda R, the Ferrari LaFerrari, the Mercedes C9 and the McLaren 650S GT3
