“In these wonderful eleven years, first with Assetto Corsa and later with Assetto Corsa Competizione, we have always tried our best to offer our community the most rewarding simulation and competitive driving experience possible,” said studio co-founder Marco Massarutto in a press release. “Finally, after four years of development, we have reached the launch of the Early Access version of Assetto Corsa EVO, certainly our most ambitious project ever.”
Massarutto also spoke about how the new title represents a new starting point for the studio, promising constant updates throughout the game’s early access period with new content like vehicles and modes.
“However, this important milestone represents even more a new starting point, thanks to your support, to make Assetto Corsa EVO the racing simulation that our great community has been eagerly awaiting,” he said. “During the Early Access period, we will work to provide constant updates of content and modes, refining the experience based on the valuable feedback received from the community to give our title its best possible shape when it will be released in its full version this Autumn.”
