After the main season pass for GT sim-racing game Assetto Corsa Competizione was complete, many where speculating if the title would receive any further content updates.

We even published an article just a few days ago speculating on the future direction of the game. Allow us to put on our best smug face, for just two minutes, please.

Today, it was announced that car liveries from the 2021 GT World Challenge Europe series will be added to the platform for free, via a v1.7.12 update.

To be clear, this is not new vehicles, but rather a roster update with the drivers, team and car designs updated to reflect the real-world championship.

The platform is being used for many esports series at present, including the Fanatec Esports GT Pro Series which takes place with GT World Series drivers during race weekends. Now they will be able to compete with updated liveries and those at home can now have a matching experience.

There is also a bonus BMW Sim Time Attack livery and one for the Logitech McLaren G Challenge series.

For now, this is just for the PC version of the game. Up until this update, the PS4 and Xbox One versions did have DLC parity – so we await word on when or if these skins will make it across too.

We’ve included the full changelog for you below, which also includes some minor changes:
