This includes, among other things, a new tyre model for Hypercars, overhauled brake temperature mechanics and numerous other optimisations.
- The “US Track Pack Part 1” DLC for “Le Mans Ultimate” is now available and includes Daytona International Speedway and Laguna Seca.
- The update V1.4, which is also available, includes overhauled brake temperature mechanics, improved online reporting features, the previously controversial Joker system and optimised Hypercar tyres.
Le Mans Ultimate therefore now offers a new update and the first US track pack at the same time.
The “US Track Pack Part 1” includes Daytona International Speedway and Laguna Seca and normally costs €17.99. A 10% discount is available during a limited-time offer. Alternatively, the complete “US Track Pass”, which includes a total of six tracks, can be purchased for €39.99. The four other American race tracks have not yet been announced.
The next two packs are expected to be released in the third and fourth quarters of this year, respectively. Each pack will contain two additional tracks that have not yet been announced.
Update V1.4
Version 1.4.0.0 brings a range of extensive improvements to “Le Mans Ultimate”. The Hypercar tyre model has been adjusted to represent the Michelin tyres used in the real FIA World Endurance Championship more accurately. Lap times should improve by up to five seconds, particularly with cold tyres.
The brake warm-up behaviour has also been revised to further increase realism. In addition, the Cadillac and Alpine LMDh Hypercars in their 2026 model-year specification have been integrated into the game free of charge.
The Circuit de la Sarthe has received a comprehensive graphical overhaul reflecting its appearance at this year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans. The new, initially controversial Joker system for multiplayer mode has also been officially introduced.
A replay-based protest system complements the other improvements to the multiplayer backend, which also include optimisations to “Le Mans Ultimate”’s network system. AMD FSR 1.0 should also help reduce performance issues on less powerful PCs.
VR users can now individually adjust the scaling of the field-of-view resolution via OpenXR.
