Did you know Assetto Corsa have secured licencing rights to bring the Porsche brand over to the simulation? It's been kept pretty quiet you know...

Just in case you missed all the hype surrounding the three Porsche DLC "volumes" penned in for a release to the Kunos flagship simulator Assetto Corsa, the studio have thrown together a bunch of images on their Volume III DLC store page on Steam. Showing off some delightful highlights from the upcoming DLC pack due to release in a couple of days, the new big batch of shots are another welcome reminder of what is due to be one of the better stocked DLC packages coming to AC this year.

As mentioned above, the third Porsche instalment will land on Steam for PC gamers this Tuesday 20th December. Due to retail as a stand alone DLC for £5.99, players who wish to purchase all three packs can take advantage of the 'Season Pass' DLC that will secure all three instalments of the Porsche content for £12.93.

As a reminder for those of us who may not be familiar with what Volume III will contain, the full car list can be seen below. Please note the Macan is a free addition to the sim, and the 911 Turbo S replaces the 2017 911 GT3 RSR that has been delayed until January 2017, whereupon it will be released free of charge to owners of the Volume III DLC.

Porsche Volume 3 DLC Contains:
  • Porsche 911 GT3 Cup 2017
  • Porsche 911 GT3 RSR 2017 * Coming as a free update in January 2017
  • Porsche 911 GT3 R 2015
  • Porsche 919 Hybrid 2016
  • Porsche 908 LH
  • Porsche 917 K
  • Porsche 911 R
  • Porsche 911 Turbo S
  • Porsche Macan

To ease the wait until Tuesday, cast your eyes over these...

The mid engine is alo neccessarry because of the new tyre rules from the WEC. They are allowed to use only 4 sets of tyres for the race. and the rear engine is eating rear tyres much more than an mid engined car. And also new aerodynamics rules. so porsche would become very uncompetitive with the new rules. for gt3 this is not neccessary

Time to re-create that epic 1969 Le-mans battle between the GT40 & the 908 that went down to the very last minutes of that epic race.

Shame we do not have the matching Ferrari 512 M or S to battle the 917 k , lets hope Ferrari now open their classic historic race cars up for DLC to be added in 2017 .
thewarmer, this may turn out to be the most replied to post ever!

AC NEEDS that Ferrari 512 m or the s.

It also needs Jim Hall's Chevy Chaparrals. ALL of them would make a great Dream Pack.

An Alfa Typo 33 wouldn't hurt.
