Assetto Corsa on Console "Engineered to Perfection" Trailer

Assetto Corsa Console 'Perfection'

As we approach the June release date for the console version of Assetto Corsa, it seems Kunos and 505 Games have been ramping up the promotional push to spread the word about the game.

Latest of which, is this simply sublime trailer showing many vehicles from the game captured in everything from a gentle panning around the cars' interiors and exteriors, to the slow motion instances of the many normal racing and hard driving moments exhibited during the running of laps around a circuit or race course, all set to a calming classy piano piece that never breaks away into a hard rock session or a dubstep bass drop.

Giving out a feeling that there is no need for gimmicks, and in turn showing itself in a sort of warts and all type manner because of it, marking itself as a simulation racer that is all about the cars and the handling first.

Its sole function, to provide a close representation of what it might actually feel like to take anything from your own daily driver (if it's in) or one of those unobtainable dream motors to the very limit, as if you are one of the previous Top Gear presenters, whose job it is to go fast and hopefully not crash while doing so.

With DiRT Rally having only just dropped on the PS4 and Xbox One and Assetto Corsa coming up on the horizon, these are quite good days to be a console racing pleb.
