A little over a month ago, we had the release of the Porsche Pack for Assetto Corsa on the PC. Now, the pack has made its way to the Playstation 4 version of Kunos/505 Games’ sim, along with a new update!
The pack is largely the same as the PC version, and also features the same two free pieces of content: the Porsche Panamera G2, and the Historic Silverstone layout. For more information, including the changelog for the version 1.09 Console Update, you can check out the Press Release below, direct from the Assetto Corsa Community Blog.
The Porsche Pack is available tomorrow for the PS4! Unfortunately, due to some technical hiccups, the Xbox One version has been delayed, but should be coming soon. Are you looking forward to it? Let us know in the comments!
