Reiza Studios have today deployed the first official Early Access build for their new Automobilista 2 racing simulation.
It's here folks! A new build of the much anticipated Automobilista 2, now publicly available in Steam Early Access has landed!
Release announcement in full:
Automobilista 2 is finally here! We are very excited to be able to share what we have been working on all this time.
Please note that as an Early Access release the game is not yet complete - Time Trial & Championship mode are currently disabled but should become available over the first few weeks of Early Access.
Below are some further known common issues and limitations of:this initial release:
The are many other substantial updates to every front of the game planned for Automobilista 2 throughout Early Access and beyond - we´ll be posting regular updates to inform what´s coming up the pipeline as we progress.
FORCE FEEDBACK
Default FFB settings are designed for Logitech G2X series - if you have wheels with stronger motors you should scale those settings down to avoid clipping.
A more detailed guide for FFB settings will follow up soon.
FOR THOSE WITH AMS2 BETA INSTALLED
Upon this release AMS2 BETA owners will have two AMS2 apps in their Steam library - the Beta and this Main Release.
Both apps will be the same as of tonight and for the next few days until the next AMS2 Beta update (which may or may not be also deployed to AMS2 Main depending on the importance of the updates).
If you are an exclusively offline racer there is no reason to install the Main Release of AMS2 - you may continue using exclusively AMS2 Beta. If however you plan to race online or run Time Trial mode when it becomes available with non-Beta users, you must install the Main Release.

Remember folks, although the simulation has moved from closed beta status, the title is still very much in Early Access state. Don't load up expecting a fully realised and finished title just yet, but I'm sure you will agree with me that the road to V1 status is going to be an exciting journey...
AMS 2 is available now via Steam Early Access.

Below are some further known common issues and limitations of:this initial release:
- UI & HUD are still deep in development, and currently feature the essentials for all game modes to work - this will be expanded with new options & features over the course of EA, with same pages being completely redesigned.
- Early Access is exclusively in English for the time being; Localization to other languages should only be added in time for the full Release.
- Driver names, suits and helmets are generic for all series as the whole system is being reestructured (also part of requirements for a revamped Opponents settings and the Custom Championship Tool);
- All 3D driver animations are still placeholders and may not fully fit the car yet;
- Other Car-related 3D animations have not been exported which mean suspension arms are graphically static, damage is very limited and wiper are not operational
- Some series still have WIP or placeholder liveries - these will be updated or expanded over the course of Early Access
The are many other substantial updates to every front of the game planned for Automobilista 2 throughout Early Access and beyond - we´ll be posting regular updates to inform what´s coming up the pipeline as we progress.
