RaceRoom has confirmed when sim racers can expect its next platform update and car content: 4th August 2026.
It follows a wave of announcements in recent days, with new DTM (GT3-spec) cars, an all new HUD and notable multiplayer improvements. There are also track upgrades for Monza and the Nürburgring Nordschleife.
Four new GT3 cars
Thanks to a new DTM 2026-season DLC pack, which includes the current season livery designs and all cars apart from the Ferrari 296, the following four fresh cars will be available:
Aston Martin GT3 Evo
Ford Mustang GT3 Evo
Lamborghini Temerario GT3
Porsche 911 GT3 R (2026 update)
This marks the first time the Mustang is available for the platform, and it arrives in current Evo spec. Meanwhile, the Aston Martin marks the first time the British brand has ever appeared in RaceRoom. Then there’s the Temerario, marking its sim racing debut, anywhere, in the KW Studios-created title.
A lot of ‘marks’ and ‘firsts’ there, but it’s important. The DTM 2026 pack that includes the four cars and liveries will cost €29.99.
New HUD
The on-screen information during races has been re-designed, something that is now closer to the fresher designs seen in the multiplayer user interface, for example. Current positions, timing and maps are said to be clearer, and the whole display can be customised.
The location and size for each element can be changed, and you can switch on or off sections as you please.
The MFD is also updated to match, with tyre info, session-aware standings, timing, a full instrument cluster, a status strip for penalties and messages and a dedicated chat/system message log.
Expanded multiplayer grids
Now, in the future, RaceRoom is hinting at even more online dedicated server multiplayer changes, but for now it’s been tinkering under the hood, and it can support grids of at least 50, up from 38.
Updated Nürburgring Nordschleife and Monza
The Italian venue will receive an updated track surface that RaceRoom claims is “Monza as it actually looks today: worn paint, rubbered-in kerbs, and the lived-in character of a track that’s seen plenty of racing.”
The changes to the Nürburgring Nordschleife are more substantial, keeping it in line with real-world changes earlier this year. These include an overhauled car park, new buildings and EV charging stations, updated kerbs at Hatzenbach and Brünnchen and a repositioned Hohenrain chicane line. The surface has also been updated, including a selection of the latest graffiti.
