Nürburgring Nordschleife Announced for Assetto Corsa Competizione

In a post to the Nürburgring’s social media pages, the Nordschleife has been officially announced as coming to Assetto Corsa Competizione.

Back in the summer, during the SRO Motorsport yearly Press Conference, rumours among the sim racing community began to swell concerning the Nürburgring Nordschleife and Assetto Corsa Competizione.

In fact, the SRO Motorsports Group announced that it would integrate the Nurburgring 24 Hours into its Intercontinental GT Challenge. This lead sim racers to wonder if the SRO’s official game, Assetto Corsa Competizione, could feature the Green Hell.

All posts have since been deleted. But here is a screenshot of the Instagram post.

Well, several months of speculation later and we have our answer. A tweet posted by the Nürburgring’s social media team reveals the circuit in ACC. The post reads, “We’re looking forward to experiencing the legendary Nordschleife and the 24hNBR atmosphere at Assetto Corsa Competizione!”

Nordschleife in ACC​

It seems then that ACC will soon receive an update including the 20.83 km circuit. However, there are many more additions Kunos is yet to deliver. So one might suggest that this content drop will be larger than any other before it.


In fact, a year before the SRO Nurburgring 24 announcement, the 2022 SRO Press Conference mentioned the addition of GT2 machinery to ACC. Over a year and a quarter since the announcement, fans are still awaiting these amateur-centric GT cars.

With GT2 racers also joining the Nurburgring 24 Hour fray this year as part of the experimental GTX class, could we see a selection of cars release alongside the Nordschleife for ACC? Only time will tell.

As yet, no date is announced for the circuit release. Furthermore, we do not know if the track will come with the GT2 pack. However, with development preparing for an “Assetto Corsa 2” launch next year, one must assume a December release is on the cards.

Motorsport gets my blood pumping more than anything else. Be it physical or virtual, I'm down to bang doors.

This proves that I was very wrong all along about this. Shame on me. But happy to have this track in ACC, kinda sad that this has killed the meme.
 
Nice should make ACC relevant for years.

How about getting new skins released as they appear through the rounds, extra DLC. :coffee:

Years ago „trackdays“ on Nords in AC was great and much fun. Without standing time you join the server pic-up or wait for a bunch of guys around „Tourist-entrance“ and go racing.

I just wish, this one will be come with other track that will be on GTWC Europe 2024 like Hockenheimring, Magny-Cours and Jeddah before we get into AC2 release.

Then again, would be nice too if can have full track of American pack. I not sure how actually their licensing works but yea would be nice if that can happen, since we really need more track.
 
I recently took a break from online racing in ACC as I got tired of being involved in a crash in almost every single race and 90% of the time through no fault of my own.
Nords is great, but it'll be a complete and utter mess online, given the tightness, technicality and complexity of the track.
So yeah, people who have asked for it for years will buy it in droves and then leave it a week or so later I recon (aside from hotlappers and offline players).
100%, That game and that track is going to be a disaster.

Sour VR souls. :roflmao:
AC2 is going to use UE5. :p

Agee, it's enough with UE4. They should spend all their time on AC2.
And I'm sure their development team is doing. But boy are they going to be able to fund some more development resource by selling copies of this, the model and textures of which are sure to be in AC2 too.

Hello to those sitting in front of the screen or wearing VR glasses.
Since I own AC, ACC and AMS2, I personally don't care if the green hell breaks over ACC.
If I want, I'll go there. Zack, done.
Sure, the new WEC is running there and as a licensed game it should already be in ACC.
To do what?
A 24 h race?
Possibly still with 160 vehicles, divided into three starter groups, online?
A home computer that can handle this has yet to be invented.
Of course everything in ultra settings at 16K resolution.
This will be a first-class butcher festival.
Maybe game designers should start using artificial intelligence that adapts to the player, reacts to his maneuvers, and learns instead of always publishing the same race tracks and cars.
Not everyone goes online or has a private server with a few friends because they don't want or have the time to join a league where a time window is set.
But hey, I begrudge the ACC owners this hotlap racetrack.
Attention Spoiler alert.
Max Verstappen comes first in a meaningless race in a racing series whose world champion has been decided for weeks anyway.
I know that was mean now.
Have a nice weekend.
Tschüß.

Why everyone feels obliged to tell the world that they don't want it. Nobody cares really, go back to your sorry hole.

For those who appreciate physics and graphics of ACC it's will be the best Christmas gift ever, my guess Kunos will time DLC release for the holidays.

Happy to see this track coming, but its also a bit strange that Kunos puts so much effort into the game that late into its life cycle and before launching AC2. I mean, dont get me wrong, its cool, but still a bit odd. Hope they can reuse it for AC2, but wonder how this would work if the track is done in UE4 and AC2 will use their own engine...
