Power is in Your Hands

Le Mans Ultimate uses the industry-leading physics and handling simulation DNA from pMotor 2.5, as used and improved from rFactor2. The game builds upon that foundation, making it more accessible and user-friendly to the community with quality of life improvements, removing barriers to entry while maintaining the key core elements of sim racing.

The game will feature selectable difficulty levels, allowing players to determine their own skill level with help for first-timers, including adjustable assists. Additionally, language localization is available for English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish speakers. A concise and clear user interface (UI), easy-to-understand heads-up display (HUD), and broadcast-style track elements will immerse players in the official FIA WEC and Le Mans experience.

Let Battle Commence!

For those seeking edge-of-the-seat, wheel-to-wheel competition against real-life drivers, the Online function, powered by RaceControl, will provide that pulsating challenge. At launch, racers will be able to participate in ranked Daily Races, running regularly throughout the day. This will offer the opportunity to build the player’s Driver and Safety rankings, unlocking higher-ranked races and exclusive events as the game develops alongside the real-life FIA World Endurance Championship.

The Ultimate Race Weekend

Racing game fans will start their Le Mans Ultimate journey in either Offline Race Weekend or Online mode. Race Weekend will provide the perfect place to start for any driver, as they select a player profile of Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced according to their sim racing experience. This area of play will allow players to get to grips with the exotic machinery, refine car setup, and learn the circuits while formulating their own FIA WEC race weekend – taking part in Practice, Qualifying, and the main Race, adjusting the time of day, session duration, and weather conditions to their liking.

Hitting The Ground Running

Le Mans Ultimate will utilize advancements in Real Road 2.0 track evolution simulation found uniquely in Studio 397 titles. Like a real race session, the track will begin as a green, relatively gripless circuit at the start of a weekend and rubber in as more cars pass over the racing line, moving dust, dirt, and marbles off-line. Work is being undertaken in several areas, including dynamic weather effects such as rainfall and debris on windscreens, as well as more realistic water flow and puddle formation on the circuit. The cars will also evolve with the race, accumulating dirt and debris to give them an authentic weathered, endurance look.
