'Motorsport Manager' Challenge Pack DLC, Free Patch Later This Month - Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 7, 2017 @ 8:22 a.m. PDT

Motorsport Manager gives you the unique opportunity to build your own team in the fast moving world of motorsport. You’ll hire the drivers, research the tech, devise the race-day tactics and so much more in a game where every single decision matters.

Experience the exciting world of motorsport in Motorsport Manager, populated by an ever-shifting variety of teams, drivers, engineers and mechanics to be hired, fired and competed against on your way to motorsport immortality.

Design and build your car from scratch during pre-season testing, with highly detailed design options that give you the freedom to produce components tailored to specific race conditions and then hone their stats in your factory for optimum performance. Change the infrastructure of the sport itself and vote on rule changes year-to-year that will give your team the edge they’ll need for success. See your hard work unfold in the beautifully realized 3D race engine in a fully immersive race weekend, taking you through practice, expanded qualification and full-length races, and make the split-second decisions needed to ensure your drivers see the checkered flag first.

Will your team dominate the podium or be left stalled on the start line?

Are you up to the challenge? The season has taken a horrific turn for the worse. During the tenth race your star driver was involved in a severe crash and is confined to the infirmary for the next few races: can you put everything in place for an epic comeback? Find out with the latest DLC for Motorsport Manager.

SEGA and Playsport Games confirm the new DLC and free update for Motorsport Manager PC will be available to pre-purchase starting today with a 10% discount, before releasing on Monday, August 21st.

The Challenge Pack DLC, which will release alongside a free update, includes 12 new challenges, some taking inspiration from motor racing history. The challenges range from having to deal with the controversially proposed rule of race sprinklers, your factory burning down hindering you from making new parts, or having to manage the Chairman's frat-boy son who is now your lead driver! Each challenge lasts for a different amount of time, from a single race to an entire season, and will put the most experienced motorsport manager to the test.

The free update, The Devil is in the Detail, is sure to bring drama and increase the tension with more in-depth features than ever before, including lap charts, weight stripping and dynamic driver mistakes on the track. Weight stripping is a new mechanic within the game that allows the player to shave weight off parts to increase performance, adding loads of last-minute reliability drama! Much-requested by the community, managers can now save and load car setups too.

Key Features:

  • The Drivers. Your drivers have unique personality types, sparking drama within the team. Will you get the best out of them with tough love, or an arm around the shoulder?
  • Location, Location, Location. The location of your HQ is all-important in this globe-spanning sport. Some drivers might find it hard to resist joining an Italian team...
  • Pick the right people. Scouring the world for hidden gems is all the more satisfying when you find a young mechanic who can shave seconds off your pit stop times.
  • The Factory. Build new cars and parts from scratch, then evolve the technology over multiple seasons to create the perfect driving machine.
  • Thinking Ahead. Make the call on every part that goes into next season’s car. Get it right, and you’ll be in the perfect position come pre-season testing.
  • Hone your expertise. Make detailed mechanical tweaks or choose your team’s recommendations.
  • The Race Weekend. Set initial strategy across practice, qualifying and race – and adjust your tactics according to on-track developments.
  • Master the Pitstop. Risk it all with a high speed pit stop that could put you out in front of your rivals.
  • Weather Systems. Dynamic and game-changing weather. Will you pit for intermediate tyres or hold out on slicks for as long as possible?
