Assetto Corsa – New Ferrari Previews + Greenlight

Kunos Simulazioni has released new previews of their Assetto Corsa simulation, showing off the Ferrari F40.

The F40 is the second car of Kunos’ five-car Ferrari license deal, the car follows up the F458 Italia road car.

Meanwhile, Kunos is campaigning for their title to be added to Steam in order to give Assetto Corsa maximum exposure on one of gaming’s largest platforms. To support their Steam bid and check out the previews, please click here

Assetto Corsa will be powered by a brand new DirectX 11 graphics engine and will come with advanced features such as blur & DOF. The title will offer extensive modding support as well as ten laser-scanned tracks and fully licensed cars as well as AI – A first for a Kunos title.

Assetto Corsa will be available in Q1 2013, the title will feature licensed cars from manufacturers such as Ferrari, BMW & Lotus. Assetto Corsa is set to be released in Q1 2013.

    This literally made my day. F40 on a full blown sim, I must be dreaming.

    Still three more cars to go, and the GT3 and GTE cars would be my guesses for two of them.

    Would have been great if the GT version would also make its way into AC.

    That’s a very bold move Kunos. The F40 is incredibly hard to get right.

    I’ve been disappointed by at least something on every attempt to do a virtual F40 justice so far (whether that is physics, visuals, or sound) but good luck to you!

    Well if your laptop is shitty I wouldn’t expect it to run much, unless you turn down details so much it will look bad.. judging from rf2 and pCars requirements, all new sims will need decent firepower to run.

    Have you heard the sound yet??? Is Lotus a brand of lawnmowers??? Please,Kunos, just tell me the Lotus sound is just replacement sounds, right? I was sure that something would go wrong with this awaited messiah…. once again, they f—-ed the sound, I can’t believe it ! hear for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avSHQl_if-0&feature=player_embedded

    from the last direct feed video, the sound is TERRIBLE… it sounds like GT5!!!

  • Jeroen de Wit

    Just two words, F*CK YEAH

  • bduddy

    There’s a button for that, you know…

    You should never judge how anything sounds from a YouTube clip. Their compression always distorts the sound.

  • http://www.facebook.com/nicolas.grignon Nicolas Grignon

    Sorry but this is this is direct feed… and it sounds like S—T, seriously…

  • Ricoo
