Automobilista 2 V1.0.5.5 and Nurburgring Pack DLC

It’s taken slightly longer than expected, but both Automobilista 2 V1.0.5.5 and Nurburgring Pack DLC are now available. This means you get all the latest improvements, and the physics upgrades for the GT3 and GT4 cars, but the brief change to race the Nurgburgring GP circuit for free is now over.

Reiza Studios had allowed all Automobilista 2 sim racers to experience the track as the Nordschleife element of the planned DLC pack was slightly delayed. But now things are back on schedule, with a historical version of the Nordschleife, and more Nurburgring layouts coming as free updates if you buy the additional content now.

One thing to note is that the physics modifications need you to go into the setup screen and click “Reset to Default” when choosing any of the new GT3 or GT4 cars added in the v1.0.5.0 update.

The Nurburgring DLC is now available via Steam for £7.99 and includes the modern Grand Prix layout of the circuit, and the Nordschleife, with both developed using laser scan data.

You currently get the GP layout, the version with the faster Veedol chicane, and the Nordschleife, but other variations of the modern track will be coming very shortly as a free update if you already own the DLC, and in 2021 there will be a historical version also added.
