704Games don't hang about when it comes to DLC content, check out the October 2017 DLC drop details revealed earlier today...
NASCAR Heat 2 was made available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC back on the 14th September and since then the newly retitled 704Games have been hard at work producing plenty of post release content for an audience that remains fiercely loyal to the authenticity of the most prominent auto racing series in North America.
Now don't get me wrong, 704 are still updating the core game software alongside popping our DLC releases on a regular basis, as can be evidenced by the very
first patch deployed just last Friday, however it does feel slightly jarring to see so much DLC in such a short space of time when the game is still pretty much fresh off the production line.
Strategy gripes aside, let us have a look at the next offering coming from the American developers...
