Kunos Simulazioni hat das Update auf die Version 1.6 für seine Rennsimulation Assetto Corsa (ab 17,99€ bei kaufen) veröffentlicht. Ab sofort wird das VR-Headset Oculus Rift offiziell unterstützt, wenn auch vorerst nur in einer Pre-Alpha-Version. Außerdem arbeitet das Studio derzeit daran, auch eine Kompatibilität zum VR-System HTC Vive zu ermöglichen. Darüber hinaus will man u.a. auch das Kollisionsverhalten in Mehrspieler-Rennen, das Nachtanken von KI-Fahrzeugen und den Klangbereich verbessert haben.
