The first of several planned 'content drop' updates for the Early Access version of Assetto Corsa Evo has gone live, with Fuji Speedway joining the title's roster of circuits and two new Italian performance cars added to the car list.

One is the Lamborghini Huracan STO, a raucous, lightweight special produced towards the end of the Huracan’s 10-year lifespan; and the other is the Lancia Delta Integrale Evo 2, the final iteration of Lancia’s boxy turbocharged rallying hero.

In addition, the update has also brought six new 'special events' to the nascent game, plus various minor bug fixes, UI improvements and a small update to the opponent AI. Here's everything Assetto Corsa Evo Early Access features as of this first update.

The initial launch version of AC Evo will feature around 100 cars. 20 were included in the first early access version, and that’s being steadily built upon as we approach the game’s forecasted autumn 2025 launch.

 With the early server issues now resolved, the rest of the promised day one features are accessible in AC Evo. These include licence tests, the Driving Academy mode that aims to guide players around the game’s circuits, and the ability to create a driver profile, gain XP and level up.

Players can also access the game’s economy and start building up a garage with the ability to buy, rent and customise cars.

Along with the first release, Kunos has unveiled a roadmap for the game between now and its full release in the autumn. Updates will alternate between smaller ‘content drops’, bringing new cars and tracks, and more significant updates adding both new content and new features to the sim. We’re promised five larger updates and six content drops.

The first content drop added Fuji Speedway plus the Huracan STO and Delta Integrale. It’ll be followed by the second early access release with a further five cars, Circuit of the Americas, a single-player custom race weekend mode, new special events, and improvements to the game’s replay, VR and triple screen facilities.

Further down the line, we know that the third full Early Access release will bring multiplayer, and the fourth a version of the game’s free-roam mode. Beyond that, though, your guess is as good as ours.

Will free-roam be in Assetto Corsa Evo early access?

Much has been made of AC Evo’s free-roam mode, which has recreated a vast area of Germany’s Eifel Mountains surrounding the Nürburgring. While it isn't featured yet, Kunos has confirmed that increasingly large areas of it will be added in future builds in the runup to v1.0’s release in the autumn, beginning with the fourth Early Access release.
