KUNOS Simulazioni is an Italian game developer that creates realistic racing games. In a country known for supercars, it makes sense that great racing games come from Italy.

About Assetto Corsa EVO

Assetto Corsa EVO continues the tradition of the series by offering an authentic driving experience. The game combines detailed car mechanics, precise physics, and realistic environments.

You'll find vehicles from various eras and types: from road cars and vintage classics to hypercars and racing machines. Each model accurately replicates its real-world counterpart — from mechanical systems to on-track behavior.

The developers of Assetto Corsa recently announced an important update for Assetto Corsa EVO. The game will introduce an open-world map based on the Eifel region around the Nürburgring, also called the Green Hell.

This map will be available through early access in the summer of 2025. Over time, it will expand to cover 1,600 square kilometers. Developers used laser scans and new terrain technology to build the area. The open world will be released in parts, with new features and content added gradually.

Players can rent cars, upgrade them with parts, and explore the region. Businesses like car rental services or auto parts shops may also get a chance to appear in the game.
