Assetto Corsa Evo, prequel to Assetto Corsa

In early April, Kunos Simulazioni announced that the sequel to the legendary Assetto Corsa will not be named Assetto Corsa 2 but Assetto Corsa Evo, marking an evolution of the series. The original game, a decade old, boasts sales exceeding 30,000 copies and maintains a strong community of modders and online racers across PCs and consoles.

Assetto Corsa Evo is nearing release, with pre-orders already appearing locally. It is likely targeted for a launch in late spring 2024, likely around June or July, initially for PC. But these are our speculations; this has yet to be confirmed lately, and only 2024 is.

Despite recent layoffs at some European branches of its parent group, Digital Bros, Kunos Simulazioni remains productive. They recently added a highly praised Nürburgring Nordschleife DLC to Assetto Corsa Competizioni.

The upcoming Assetto Corsa Evo will utilize Kunos Simulazioni’s proprietary engine, returning to the roots of the original game rather than the Unreal Engine used in Competizioni. Expectations include features like dynamic weather, which is now standard in racing games. With its distinct Italian flair and physics, Assetto Corsa Evo is poised to captivate fans just as the first game did. We eagerly anticipate its release in the coming months.

Cause for Concern?

While the Star Wars universe holds undeniable appeal, Ubisoft‘s recent offerings leave room for hesitation. Several recent AAA titles like “AAAA” Skuls and Bones from the publisher have fallen short of expectations, marred by bugs, lackluster gameplay, and aggressive monetization. Additionally, the price point for deluxe editions of Star Wars Outlaws, exceeding $100, raises further questions about value for money.

Proceed with Caution

The promise of exploring the Star Wars galaxy as a charismatic outlaw undoubtedly sparks excitement. Still, Ubisoft’s recent history warrants a cautious approach. It’s advisable to hold off on pre-orders until more gameplay footage and reviews are available so that you can make an informed decision.

Ubisoft Star War Outlaws Rated in Australia Kay Vess — Ubisoft Star War Outlaws Rated in Australia and Sout Korea

The South Korean Video Games Council rated Star Wars Outlaws as “Not for Teen” because of its mature content. The same happened with the Australian Government Classification for Star War Outlaws, rated as ‘M’ (Mature). This may be because the game contains gambling only, but let’s see.

What may be wrong with it—It would be the first Star Wars game not rated by P, which, on the other hand, may not be wrong.
On the other hand, it’s a good sign that we may all be much closer to release than we thought so far. So, let’s give the galaxy space to make us all happy about this Ubisoft top anticipated project for 2024.
