by Peyton Feb 25,2025

Get ready, racing fans! Assetto Corsa EVO, from Kunos Simulazioni Studios, hits Steam Early Access on January 16, 2025!

Initially, experience 20 meticulously detailed cars and 5 iconic tracks: Imola, Brands Hatch, Bathurst, Laguna Seca, and Suzuka. Even in Early Access, expect stunning physics, precise handling, and incredibly realistic car behavior.

A standout feature is the free-roam mode. A massive summer 2025 update promises a fully laser-scanned open world encompassing the Nürburgring and its surrounding roads, spanning a staggering 1600 square kilometers, with ongoing expansion planned.

Assetto Corsa EVO boldly challenges established giants like Gran Turismo and Forza Motorsport, boasting photorealistic visuals and cutting-edge physics.

The launch version will feature 100 vehicles and 15 tracks, with more to come via free updates. Each circuit will mirror real-world conditions, from tire wear to wet surfaces, enhanced by realistic animated spectators.

Developers have refined vehicle dynamics, suspension, and shock absorption. Early Access will include the Driving Academy mode, a single-player challenge across the available tracks, requiring timed completion to earn a license unlocking top-tier vehicles.
