Precision and perfection are at the core of Kunos Simulazioni’s pedigree; first of all in creating software models for numerous motorsports Marques, and now in bringing their ground-breaking racing simulation, Assetto Corsa, to home consoles.
Deservedly positioned as “Your Racing Simulator,” Assetto Corsa ups the simulation stakes with a fanatical focus on pure driving realism, with laser-focused accuracy across every aspect of the game from the meticulous car handling to the laser-measured tracks.
Assetto Corsa features over ninety high-performance vehicles all rendered to an obsessive level of detail, and each with bespoke handling and performance modeling taken from manufacturer’s real-life track data and telemetry.
Using laser scanning technology to deliver the highest level of accuracy possible, Assetto Corsa boats twenty-four track configurations from sixteen legendary circuits, alongside an advanced physics engine built using practical knowledge acquired from the elite of motorsport including features and aspects of real cars, never seen on any other racing simulator such as tyre flat spots, heat cycles including graining and blistering.
A full suite of race modes in Single and Multiplayer are available and customization allows players to personalize their experience by adjusting the handling and race set-up of each and every car in-game to match their personal racing style.
Assetto Corsa has been developed at the Kunos Simulazioni R&D office, located at the Vallelunga international racing circuit outside Rome, allowing the team to develop the game in conjunction with some of the world’s top drivers and racing teams.

I've still not got over being ripped off by Project Cars on Xbox One - the bugs made it pointless in trying a full career and they've not bothered to resolve it. Keep trying it but the sporadic framerate juddering and crashes always ruins my races.
Forza games are great - spent hundreds of hours on Forza 5 & 6 but they aren't true simulator games - Forza Horizon 2 is also enjoyable if you dont mind a driving game based around a festival, the open world is fantastic.
So might give Assetto a go as I feel like Xbox is still missing a proper simulator game.

What didn't you enjoy about Project Cars? I found it miles ahead of others like GT and Forza.

I agree, Project Cars isn't great. Hopefully Assetoa Corsa is better, this and GT Sport are my upcoming sim car game fix

It isn't released until 3rd of June, I can't imagine it going cheaper before mid June, will more than likely rise in price once released. Also the release date has already been moved back once, so there is a chance it could be put back again.
This is my Brother's birthday present sorted. Question is, do I order now or wait till mid-June when I need it?

Project Cars, with slightly more punishing handling and no weather or night racing
