Why The Future Of Assetto Corsa Is So Exciting, With Marco Massarutto | Traxion.GG Podcast S4 E5
602For this edition of the Traxion.GG Podcast, we speak to Marco Massarutto, co-founder and Executive Manager of Kunos Simulazioni, an Italian development team headquartered near the Vallelunga Circuit.
We discuss the background and inspirations behind Kunos’ biggest and most recent hit games, including 2014’s Assetto Corsa, plus the official GT World Challenge game, Assetto Corsa Competizione, first seen in 2018.
The future of the Assetto Corsa franchise is also talked about; we already know Assetto Corsa 2 is in the works, but Marco reveals more details in terms of the game engine and content, as well as a surprising statistic regarding the importance of console sales to the business…
While their most recent game, Assetto Corsa Competizione, enjoyed a successful Challengers Pack DLC launch last month (March 2022), we also discuss the prospects of further new content coming to the lauded GT racing sim – and what the future holds for the next-gen console versions.
