Automobilista 2 July 2025 Development Update

Greetings everyone!

We are in final preparations for the next update of Automobilista 2 as V1.6.6 is expected to be released tomorrow (July 30); this will be accompanied by two new DLCs, Endurance Pack Pt3 & Nrburgring 2025.

Lets have a look into whats included in each of these DLCs as well as the improvements to be expected from the update itself!

Endurance Pack Pt3

The third installment of our Endurance series adds a new batch of prototype and GT machinery to our ever-growing roaster this time it is Aston Martin making its grand debut in AMS2, with the pack featuring no less than four formidable models from the prestigious British manufacturer.

Starting with the latest V12 sensation: the Aston Martin Valkyrie Hypercar has been delivering stunning sights and sounds on both sides of the Atlantic this season, although it still gaining speed in the ultra-competitive GTP / LMDh classes it has already won the hearts of racing fans all over.

There will be a splash of British Racing Green to the GT3 & GT4 classes as well with the latest Aston Martin Vantage GT3 Evo & Aston Martin Vantage GT4 Evo respectively.

Rolling back the clock a bit to 2020 for the amazing Aston Martin Vantage V8 joining the GTE class still alive and awesome in AMS2!

It is not all about the Astons in Endurance Pack Pt3 however as the light & nimble Alpine A110 GT4 Evo is a fresh pretty new face and also joining the GT4 class as its 9th contender.

Finally, the Ligier JS2-R as for now the sole contender in the new Ligier European Series - watch this space as there is more to come here!

[img src="https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/35138208/5eadabae6bf5ae5c44cbf435eba268c89475a348.jpg"][/img]

These are the six models making the Endurance Pack Pt3 in its initial release; the pack will sell for US$ 9,99 or the equivalent regional conversion; as usual the cars will have a free trial period in the first few days following their release before reverting to being exclusive to owners of the DLC, so dont miss out on the opportunity to make theyre worth the extra bucks!

Nrburgring 2025 & Nurburgring 2020 Overhaul


[img src="https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/35138208/b85cbcffff48134978776b1d47ac02d5758d7f2d.jpg"][/img]

AMS2 is all about providing a diverse range of motorsports experiences, and it could never really deliver without featuring the ultimate driving challenge - the infamous Green Hell.

There was of course already an initial stab at the Nrburgring back in 2020 with the release of the Nrburgring Pack featuring the modern layouts; a couple of years later the Reiza track team revisited the Eifel Mountains, this time travelling back to the 1971 to produce the most detailed historical version of the Nrburgring, complete with the legendary Sudschleife , fulfilling the original DLC.

[img src="https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/35138208/f68753d72485a3ddc7e50c4e5bc8984ccc8d908a.jpg"][/img]

The plan however had always been to revisit the modern track at some point and give it a top-to-bottom overhaul, as the original was produced quite early on and it was based off a fairly rough mesh to begin with; we knew we wanted to do the track proper justice in AMS2; The reform to the real track earlier this year along with the renewal of our licensing agreement presenting an opportunity for fresh scan data, this seemed like the right time to tackle the Green Hell again.

Just like the 1971 project back in 2023, the 2025 overhaul proved especially laborious given the size of the track and the sheer amount of details in and around it; once again however our track team couldnt help but go the distance, which result hopefully you all can get a sense for in the previews here.

The project basically covers two fronts, with the 2020 layouts from the original Nrburgring Pack receiving all the main terrain 3D mesh updates as well as some of the artwork development the 2020 track update will be free to everyone who already own the original DLC; Nrburgring 2025 featuring all the latest renovations done to the facility as well as the complete art overhaul in turn will be sold as its own standalone DLC for US$ 7.99 or the equivalent regional conversion.

Two things that wont make this release but that are still planned for subsequent updates for the track and the game are a "joker" shortcut" to skip the out lap, and a Tourist layout option so the track can be experiecend as it is by those visiting it in real life

Check this post in our forum to learn more about the differences between the 2020 & 2025 versions of the track.

Multiplayer Revisions


[img src="https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/35138208/c37c7865e90c91c48b34c5b72b85bdaee5e06c03.jpg"][/img]

We are currently in the process of performing various Multiplayer code structural improvements & corrections which hopefully will further improve reliability of MP sessions in AMS2.

Stage 1 of this overhaul will already be integrated into the next release, and they include fixes for at least one known cause of sessions getting stuck in transition, and an optimized packet transfer during either host migration and / or around the end of a MP sessions, both of which should greatly reduce chances of mass disconnections or mass lags in either scenarios.

Further development may be expected follow on this front over the next few months.

Steam Racing Fest

[ 2025-07-30 00:08:24 CET ] [ Original post ]

Automobilista 2 is a celebration of motorsports - a comprehensive simulator powered by genre-leading technology placing you right at the center of the thrills the sport has provided over the decades, with an uniquely immersive experience and unmatched variety of cars, tracks and features you won´t find in any other racing game; it is an advanced simulator that never forgets to remain fun and accessible.

Within a few clicks, you can jump from a rental kart for modern day race in downtown Sao Paulo to a historic Grand Prix car for a blast around Monzas famous banking as if it were the 1960s; Run one of the championship seasons offered within the game, or create your own custom season setting up classes, tracks, points system, weather to your preference;; Travel through the history of motorsports driving legendary machines such as the Lotus 72E, the mighty Group C Porsche 962c or the Mclaren F1 GTR on the tracks they actually belonged; enjoy the unique driving experiences of exotic race cars equipped with ingenious devices that made motorsports folklore never before modeled in a racing simulator, such as the Brabham BT46B fan car or the Mclaren MP4-12 with its ingenuous brake steer system; explore the freedom that Automobilista 2 provides to create great events that never were, or even really crazy ones that never could be.

There is more still to come in the years ahead - new cars & tracks, more historical content, different racing modes, enhanced gameplay features, better racing for both single and multiplayer; AMS2 continues to be an ever-evolving, ever-expanding project that will continue to get bigger and better.

RACE ANYTHING, ANYWHERE, ANYHOW

From rental Karts to high-performance Prototypes, Classic Grand Prix cars to modern GTs and Racing Trucks, Automobilista 2 offers it all through a catalogue of beautifully-detailed venues across five continents.

ACCESSIBLE VISUAL REALISM

Automobilista 2 combines world-class graphics with optimized performance to offer glorious visuals even on less powerful systems, and one of the best VR experiences of any racing game

FULLY DYNAMIC RACING

Featuring the most advanced dynamic weather and track condition systems, 24-hour cycles, barometric pressure modelling, varying wind speeds and temperatures — all to produce ever-changing conditions session to session. AMS2 gives you full control for races to progress just as you want it, ensuring no two laps are the same

REAL WEATHER

- Real Weather links AMS2´s ultra-advanced weather system with a global meteorological data system to provide real time weather for all locations present in the game - that means that if you select the current date and hour for a race at Silverstone and it´s currently raining there, you´ll get the same weather in AMS2; if it has just stopped raining a couple of hours earlier, the track will still be wet in real life, and it will likewise still be wet in AMS2 as well. Real Weather does not just mimic current weather conditions though - it packs data for every single day over the last 40 years for every track in the game, allowing users to reproduce historical races in changeable weather very closely to how they actually happened.

MOTORSPORTS RULES & REGULATIONS

- Automobilista 2 also features one of the most complete sets of rules & regulations of any racing sim, allowing users to emulate rules of most major series in the world. In V1.4 we expand that reach with the introduction of oval racing and the support for Full Course Yellow. AM2 also allows users to customize multiclass races with the exact number of opponents from each class they may desire.

RACING LEGENDS

A growing library of famous historical racing cars and race tracks as they were through various decades offer players the opportunity to relive classic eras of motorsports history

EVER EVOLVING, EVER EXPANDING

Boasting a commitment to a long-term development cycle, Automobilista 2 receives regular monthly game updates bringing in a constant flow of new features and improvements to the game along with new cars and tracks
