WATCH: We’ve tested Rennsport’s open beta and it’s… confusing

Nascent sim racing platform Rennsport has launched into a free open beta – but how has it progressed over the past two years?

Watch as John Munro goes hands-on with Rennsport’s Open Beta, Version 1.9 update, including the Nürburgring 24h Layout (inc. Nordschleife) and VR.

We test the free-to-all-with-a-PC version, released today (10th July 2024), available on the Epic Games Store.

While we think another sim platform is, on paper, a win for the racing community, we still have reservations about Rennsport’s direction and glacial progress. We’ll keep an eye on its progress over the coming months and look forward to further changes.

After this Open Beta – where more content and features are expected in the coming weeks and months – Rennsport will then enter early access in Q4 and then, finally, a ‘version 1.0’ release where it will be free-to-play with optional premium DLC and a mod marketplace.
