Today, we’re super excited to announce that Assetto Corsa Competizione, the Official GT World Challenge game, will be Xbox Series X|S Optimized on February 24, 2022. The sim racing community have been eager to know not only if, but when Assetto Corsa Competizione will launch onto next-gen, so it’s great to finally be able to confirm and acknowledge its existence openly.
What is Assetto Corsa Competizione?
Assetto Corsa Competizione is the Official GT World Challenge game. Originally developed by the immensely talented Italian development team KUNOS Simulazioni, Assetto Corsa Competizione is a sim racing game unlike many others. Used by real-life racing drivers such as David Perel and James Baldwin, ACC delivers a super realistic racing experience, thanks to the incredible attention to detail not only on and in the cars (which have been built using actual manufacturer data) but also the circuits you race on. Featuring tracks such as Silverstone, Circuit de Barcelona Catalunya, Circuit de Spa Francorchamps and the iconic Monza circuit, each track has been carefully reproduced using Laserscan technology, meaning you’ll feel every single bump and kerb out there.
