Assetto Corsa Has Been Delayed And Gamers Aren't Happy

PC gamers have been busy logging hours in Assetto Corsa for over a year now, while PS4 and Xbox One players have been waiting patiently for 22 April. However, the wait just got longer...
Assetto Corsa Has Been Delayed And Gamers Aren't Happy

Publisher 505 Games announced today that both PS4 and Xbox One releases of Assetto Corsa has been delayed until June. The game hits Europe on consoles 3rd June, and North America has to wait a a few more painful days until 7th June.

The publisher explained the need for more time to polish the game, which could be wise considering its competition is made of racing game giants like GT and Forza.

Just a few weeks ago, developer Kunos Simulazioni confirmed that the Xbox One game will run at 60fps offered on 900p, and the PS4 game will run at 60fps offered on 1080p. While the delay is understandably irritating for console gamers, it’s probably the best move for everyone. Assetto Corsa is entering the ring as a little guy with these enormous gaming titles, challenging their ranks.

This added time may give the game just what it needs to dethrone the major brands. As for PC players….they couldn’t be happier; more exclusive game time gives PC gamers greater opportunity to set and maintain their track records!

Personally, i think it should be a PC exclusive, i feel that development for the PC version has slowed down, but they do show their progress so i guess thats fine. Plus, if the physics are the same as PC, please dont buy this game without a wheel, pls. i imagine it will be more focused on using a controller so i guess it should be better

I have it for PC, but I was so excited to get it for xbox, as I prefer playing racing games on the xbox.

It’s payback for PC gamers having to wait 19 months and endure three distinct delays before we got GTA V, and 4 months for Need for Speed.

Forza looks better, not sure if the physics are tho. And a wheel is so much better, controllers don’t let you steer the same way

Well this is good at least that way the game won’t be rushed which therefore means it won’t be buggy

A good working game is better than getting a game fast but not working

AIs can easily overload mid range CPUs like my i5 4430. If I run too much AIs on the track and my CPU overloads, they will start crawling around the track. I think this problem will be more often on consoles since their hardware is even worse
