Assetto Corsa Porsche DLC Previews

Paul Jeffrey · Sep 15, 2016

Kunos Simulazioni have, by way of Kunos own Marco Massarutto, revealed a pair of new preview images from the upcoming Porsche DLC for Assetto Corsa, as well as confirming the Black Cat County track and Maserati Levante as free console downloads.

Can you tell what car is featured on the two images in this article? I'm no Porsche expert but I think I might already know... what do you think?

In other AC news, the studio have confirmed the upcoming patch for the console edition of the game will include the fantasy Black Cat County circuit, a twisting road section set in impressive rugged countryside and featuring sweeping turns protected by unforgiving steel Armco barriers. A familiar, and popular, circuit in the PC version of the game.

As well as a the substantial list of promised bug fixes and improvements to the console version of AC, Kunos have also confirmed the upcoming update will make available the Maserati Levante free to players, another vehicle already available in the PC version of the title. The Levante is the new 3.0L V6 Sports Utility Vehicle from Italian supercar manufacturer Maserati. New for 2016 and pitched at an impressively expensive £50,000 - £60,000 price point, the car does actually produce a very interest driving experience in Assetto Corsa.

With plenty of new, free, content coming to console and a wide range of fixes designed to improve the playing experience, Assetto Corsa fans have plenty to look forward to in the coming weeks.

PC fans need not worry, Kunos are hard at work on a new build for the game and of course the much anticipated Porsche DLC packages will be heading to the sim in the near future.

The first Assetto Corsa Porsche DLC package is due to hit the sim this Autumn.

Yeahzzir.

Dat 918 pic dough.

Please bring NSX. It must fun to have this 4 race together along with GTR, RX-7 & Supra. E92 is overkill.

Blimey · Sep 15, 2016

hmm. idk looks maybe like a Porsche Boxster.
Aren't we supposed to get a DLC pack per month containing Porsche's?

Yes, a car to challenge the Sauber C9 please ! 918 Spider seems to be amazing

Or another DLC a Toyota 88C (Minolta)

Interesting Maserati. I didn't realise that the housewives of wealthy Europeans played AC.

The hypercars are very nice to drive so the 918 is a welcome addition. However I've been waiting for the 917/30 for many months and that's the car that will get my love and my time.

"Your racing simulator" (not)... another street car, sigh.

A surprise 956 would be incredible. Maybe they'll bundle the eras together, like 70s, 80s-90s, 2000-2010s for the 3 DLC.

Assetto Corsa -- Your Top Gear Simulator

Are you talking about the Maserati SUV or about road cars in Porsche dlc? The Porsche dlcs are made of race cars and road cars, in both types with older and modern cars.
The Maserati Levante was a free car, and so far the rest of Maserati in the game are race cars, the GT4 and the classic f1.

What if it was just Assetto Corsa and no tag line, what would you pick to use as bad sarcasm?
