Fans of Le Mans Ultimate can look forward to more 2024 content soon, as the first of four packs is launching in July - including Imola, as Studio 397 and Motorsport Games confirmed.
When Le Mans Ultimate released in early access back in February, the title contained all the cars and tracks from the 2023 FIA World Endurance Championship season. But after releasing the BMW M Hybrid V8 in the week leading up to this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans, more 2024 season content is set to start rolling out.
With visual confirmation, the Alpine A424 and Lamborghini SC63 Hypercars are on their way onto the platform, as are the GT3 cars that replace the GTE class from 2024 onwards. However, the question was when and how exactly this additional 2024 content would launch. Now, we have a better idea of that, thanks to the LMU July run-down.
The four new Hypercar entries for this year will also be included in these packs, namely the Isotta Fraschini Tipo 6 LMH-C, the aforementioned Lamborghini SC63 and Alpine A424, and finally the Peugeot 9X8, which saw an extensive rework compared to the 2023 car already in the game. Most prominently, the 2024 9X8 now features a rear wing, as debuted at the 6H of Imola in April.

Two of those cars will be added to the platform free of charge to early access players like the BMW M Hybrid V8, whereas the remaining seven - along with the four new hypercars and the four new tracks - will be in paid DLC packs. If you intend to get all four, LMU will have a season pass that can be bought and work out at better value than buying them all individually.
Additionally, liveries for the LMP2 class field from the 2024 24 Hours of Le Mans will be added in time to the game. Once we know when the LMU season pass can be bought as well as the first of the four DLC packs themselves, we will keep you updated, of course.

Four DLC Packs
The first of four changes to the 2024 WEC schedule from last year is the Imola circuit, and the track will feature in the first DLC releasing at the end of July. The remaining three tracks - Lusail, Interlagos and Circuit of the Americas - seem to be arriving individually in the rest of the DLC pack releases. Considering that two of the three respective rounds at the tracks have not happened yet (the exception being Lusail), this makes sense - the LMU team did scan Imola at the actual WEC round, after all.The four new Hypercar entries for this year will also be included in these packs, namely the Isotta Fraschini Tipo 6 LMH-C, the aforementioned Lamborghini SC63 and Alpine A424, and finally the Peugeot 9X8, which saw an extensive rework compared to the 2023 car already in the game.

GT3 After Hypercars Are Complete
After the completion of the 2024 Hypercar grid, the GT3 cars will be making their eagerly-anticipated debut in the sim. These will include the Aston Martin Vantage AMR GT3 Evo, BMW M4 GT3, Ferrari 296 GT3, McLaren 720S GT3 Evo, Lamborghini Huracán GT3 Evo 2, Ford Mustang GT3, Lexus RC F GT3, Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R and the 2024 Le Mans LMGT3 class-winning Porsche 911 GT3 R (992).Two of those cars will be added to the platform free of charge to early access players like the BMW M Hybrid V8, whereas the remaining seven - along with the four new hypercars and the four new tracks - will be in paid DLC packs.
