RENNSPORT | Entwicklerstudio bringt mit dem Update v1.9.0 die "Open Beta" inkl. GT4, Nordschleife und VR

Die Entwickler von Competition Company und Teyon behaupten, es sei die realistischste Rennsimulation überhaupt! Das Game läuft auf der Unreal Engine 5 und zeigt eine kleine Auswahl von super detaillierten GT3-Autos auf ein paar mega detaillierten Strecken. Es soll mit Spielen wie Assetto Corsa Competizione und dem bald erscheinenden Assetto Corsa Evo um den Titel des besten Rennspiels konkurrieren.

Neben den coolen Autos und Strecken, die von den Entwicklern kreiert wurden, wird Rennsport auch Modding-Unterstützung bieten. Das bedeutet, dass das Spiel über die ursprünglichen Ressourcen von Teyon hinaus weiterentwickelt werden kann.

Früher war Rennsport nur für eine kleine Gruppe von Spielern zugänglich, da es sich um eine geschlossene Beta handelte. Aber jetzt hat sich das geändert, denn die offene Beta von Rennsport startet heute! Mit dem Update v1.9.0 können jetzt alle, die Bock haben, am Renngeschehen teilnehmen.

Das Update bringt nicht nur die offene Beta, sondern auch neue Inhalte wie eine neue Strecke, drei neue Autos und die Möglichkeit, das Spiel in VR zu zocken. Die Nürburgring Nordschleife ist jetzt auch mit dabei, genauso wie der Porsche 911 GT3 R rennsport, der BMW M4 GT4 und der Audi R8 LMS GT4.

Zusätzlich zu den neuen Inhalten enthält der Patch auch Verbesserungen an den Strecken, Optimierungen am Spiel und neue Features. Diese Änderungen basieren auf dem Feedback der Spieler und sollen das Spielerlebnis für alle Rennfahrer noch besser machen.

Die Open Beta inkl. des Updates v1.9.0 könnt ihr direkt auf der RENNSPORT-Website downloaden.
