Assetto Corsa 1.03 Patch Available for PlayStation 4

Kunos Simulazioni has made the Assetto Corsa 1.03 patch update available for download on the PlayStation 4.

The new patch addresses some of the issues that were reported by the Assetto Corsa console community. The often discussed Framerate and Screen tearing problems should now be a thing of the past. Furthermore, the Kunos dev team added 2 additional difficulty levels and the overall AI algorithms have been improved.

In good Kunos Simulazioni fashion, the update also brings players some free content in the form of the Maserati Levante S SUV and the fictional Black Cat Country track. As the result of a new technical partnership with the Italian motorsport safety equipment SPARCO, Assetto Corsa now also features some new racing suits and gloves.

At this time, there is no release date revealed for the Xbox One Patch, but we can expect to see it become available soon.
