The full release of Rennsport is inching ever closer, with 16 December now seeing the game leave the open beta stage for early access. Competition Company will bring some extra changes going forward.
Rennsport's birth has been a lengthy and difficult one, with it initially only being accessible to a few select people who competed in the ESL R1 sim racing championship. It then entered closed beta in June 2023, then open beta in July 2024, and only became available to download on Steam two months after that.
In that time, the sim has been under intense scrutiny by the community for its gradual rollout process among other factors, including but not limited to releasing paid DLC packs before leaving open beta in the form of the Founders Packs.
Well we are now at the last stage before its intended full release in 2025. Here is everything you need to know about Rennsport now it is in early access.
Within the early access version, everyone's slates will be wiped clean. The in-game store will provide players the new opportunity to acquire cars if they have not already gotten them, and they can be picked up through an in-game currency that can be earned through competing in races but also purchased.
Additionally, the first edition of the Rennsport battle pass that provides a variety of in-game items. The first of which will be the Aston Martin GT3 car that was recently added to the open beta.
Speaking of GT3 cars, they have apparently been revising the tyre and handling models of all the GT3s in-game. You can download Rennsport early access via Steam or the Epic Games Store now, plus the entire changelog can be read below.
