ACC: Laguna, Bathurst, Suzuka, Kyalami and Intercontinental GT Coming Soon!

Paul Jeffrey · Sep 16, 2019

Kunos Simulazioni have revealed the Intercontinental GT Series will be coming to Assetto Corsa Competizione in the near future.

Having secured a licence agreement with the SRO Motorsport Group to bring the official simulation of the Blancpain GT Series to sim racers gaming PC's, Kunos Simulazioni have now confirmed another high profile racing series will be added to the title as post release DLC - the rather epic Intercontinental GT Challenge!

So what does this mean? New liveries for the cars? Actually, quite a bit more than that...

Introducing The Intercontinental GT Pack, coming soon to Assetto Corsa Competizione!

A few years ago, SRO Motorsports Group introduced the Intercontinental GT Challenge, the first ever global GT3 Series, aimed to represent the highest achievement in long-distance GT racing. Its calendar includes some of the most iconic tracks in the world.

The Intercontinental GT Pack, to be fully dedicated to the Intercontinental GT Challenge, will feature new tracks such as Suzuka, Mount Panorama, Laguna Seca and Kyalami, with the South African circuit reproduced for the first time ever in a racing simulation using laserscan technology, just like all other tracks in the pack, in order to guarantee the ultimate accuracy.

More news about release date, features and media content will be available later this year. KUNOS also confirms that the team is working hard to release the 2019 GT Championship update, featuring 6 new cars and Zandvoort circuit, as a free update to the base game within Fall 2019.

The release date and pricing of the Intercontinental GT Pack DLC will be announced later on.

AWESOME!

Assetto Corsa Competizione is available now on PC.

For more from the world of ACC, why not head over to our Assetto Corsa Competizione sub forum and get yourself into the thick of the action? We have a great and knowledgeable community, plus some pretty epic League and Club Racing events, if I do say so myself. Go on, treat yourself!

Great news! I love the fact that they are releasing a full racing series instead of a new car or a new track here and there... I'm not familiar with the intercontinental GT series, but the choice of tracks is great, even if these are very challenging layouts. Suzuka, Bathurst, Laguna Seca... I better practice my driving!!

This is very, very exciting news!

It’s a stand-alone endurance series run by SRO, one of the Rounds for the Blancpain GT series is shared with the IGTC series (Spa 24 hour)

Racing games need extra cars not tracks.

This is awesome! A new update today, the 2019 season plus Zandvoort next month and four iconic tracks, well, soon. ACC is already my favorite sim and it’s getting better and better.

fantastic! Could be a gift for 1st or 2nd quarter 2020. So it is the final punch for all the other GT sims. Kunos you‘ll take the right turn - bravo!

Very curious to see what if anything they will do with regards to water drainage and running downhill during wet sessions

Just checked the entry lists for the 2019 IGTC again...

Laguna Seca had some GT4s:
Ford Mustang, Porsche Cayman 718 CSMR, BMW M4.

At least they should be included Kunos, right?

Me wants!

Ah No!

Max Melamed · Sep 17, 2019

Am I the only one missing Suzuka, or was it simply not announced? Anyway great news. Bathurst

2stains · Sep 17, 2019

I hope we can drive any car on any track and not just just correct series!

Bathurst... When i saw Aris' post on Facebook it sent a shiver down my spine and my excitement levels shot through the roof, it wasn't until a few minutes later that i found out about the other tracks, that's cool, but it's all about Bathurst for me.
