Steam Reveals Contents & Dates of Assetto Corsa Porsche Packs Volume 2 and 3

Steaming Ahead With Next Porsche Pack Info

The first Porsche Pack for Assetto Corsa isn’t even out yet but through another appearance on Steam it is likely we may know the content of not only the next pack but all of them, including their release dates!

Brought to our attention by tduck member Kelvjy (cheers ears!) and found on the official Assetto Corsa forums, it looks like content updates have been posted to Steam detailing what their intended contents will be, together with 'work in progress' renders of the models to come.

Posted along with their intended release dates, the two packs contain more iconic Porsche machinery such as the ludicrous 962c and the modern day track monster of the 911 GT3 RS.

In what would have been a nice surprise, Porsche Pack Volume 2, listed with a release date of November 22nd, will again include 7 models but in 9 configurations as the 718 Boxster and 962c come in two versions as seen below.

Porsche Pack Volume II – Contents (non-confirmed)

• Porsche 911 GT3 RS
• Porsche 718 Spyder RS
• Porsche Cayman GT4
• Porsche 718 Boxster S Manual Transmission
• Porsche 718 Boxster S PDK
• Porsche 919 Hybrid 2015
• Porsche 911 GT1
• Porsche 962c Long Tail
• Porsche 962c Short Tail

To end the year off, the Porsche Pack Volume 3 is down for December 20th and puts more of an emphasis on the racing pedigree of the famous marque. Featuring 7 models, the focus on modern day racing cars is clear with the inclusion of the entire 991 GT3 racing line and the latest Le Mans-winning 919 Hybrid. Porsche racing isn’t just about the now and this is shown no better than with the incorporation of another racing legend, the 917 K and the perhaps lesser-known 908 Lang-Heck.

The last of the three packs is also set to deliver one of the most wanted road cars that Porsche offers today. Even if you have the money for it there is no guarantee that you will get one. Produced in only 1000 units, the 911 R harks back to the older philosophy of it being all about the car, driver and the open road. Not so much a track-attack car but one for hitting everyday roads and just enjoying the thrill that driving delivers. How this will and can be put across in the game is something that will be interesting to see.

Porsche Pack Volume III – Contents (non-confirmed)

• Porsche 911 GT3 Cup 2017
• Porsche 911 GT3 RSR 2017
• Porsche 911 GT3 R 2015
• Porsche 919 Hybrid 2016
• Porsche 908 LH
• Porsche 917 K
• Porsche 911 R

As pointed out by some however, there are some favourites missing such as the Carrera GT and 959 but with a case like this there is always going to be something missing when you don’t have 100% of the back catalogue being distributed. Personally I am impressed with their selections and the configurations being included too.

It seems a shame that this has happened and as much as Kunos Simulazioni would love to make it all go away, that is just not going to happen and it is all out there. We are still missing some images of those from Porsche Pack Volume 3 but those will come in time with the more typical teasing that AC and especially Marco Massarutto has become well versed in.

Remember though, all of this is subject to change and the contents could be moved, replaced or even removed entirely as nothing has been officially confirmed by Kunos.

Either way, they certainly do have some sweet offerings available to tide players over into the new year.
