[PREVIEW] RaceRoom Racing Experience

Content Roadmap for 2023
We’re very pleased to say that we are formalising our content release strategy for 2023 onwards, so you’ll know exactly what to expect from Raceroom through the year. From now on, you can expect regular pack releases every three months, around the end of each quarter, neatly interspersed with tailored drops of single cars, tracks or series livery updates. This means you can expect to see new content about every six weeks. As ever, each new release will tie in with exciting online esports competitions and events.

Each pack will contain multiple cars – and sometimes tracks – curated around a particular theme. We’ll always try to introduce new cars that either strengthen existing classes or provide a new class that we think will bring something new and exciting to Raceroom. This year’s three remaining pack releases will be at the beginning of July, the beginning of October and then our usual pre-Christmas special release.
The intermediary content will be smaller, very affordable releases, typically of individual cars or the latest new season livery updates for key championships.

Following on from our On The Edge pack release at the beginning of April, in around five weeks you’ll be able to get your hands on the first of the new intermediate releases. We’re extremely happy to announce that it will be the new BMW M4 GT3, which will ship with a whole range of liveries from the international series it runs in.

This will be followed in July by the second of this year’s quarterly packs, which will be geared around some officially-licensed Porsche content. This pack will star their new GT3 racer, the 992-model 911 GT3-R, which when added to the M4 is another boost to our already strong GT3 class. The GT3 will be accompanied by the latest generation 911 GT3 Cup (represented by official liveries from the 2023 Carrera Cup Germany Championship) and a real classic in the shape of the 944 Turbo Cup from the mid 1980s – the latter rocking some particularly old school liveries!

The next main quarterly pack release, due in October, will see the release of a touring car themed pack based around the release of an iconic street track: Circuit De Pau Ville in the south of France. Pau is an absolute classic and a star of our old Race touring car game series: we’ve wanted to bring this into Raceroom for a long time – and we thinks it’s going to be worth the wait! We’re also still committed to touring cars, and there will be some exciting news to reveal on that front over the coming months.

We’ll bring you more details on the remaining intermediate releases in the very near future: we've got a lot of fantastic content in the pipeline. Of course, we also keep a close eye on the community, and will always try and steer content themes around what we see people are asking for. We’ll also be delivering regular physics and general development updates over the coming months. Watch this space for more details!
 
BMW M4 GT3 coming next week!
We introduced Raceroom’s new formal content release plan for 2023 off the back of last month’s On The Edge pack, which has proved to be super popular. Next up on the roadmap is an intermediary release between our bigger quarterly packs: we present the mighty BMW M4 GT3, due for launch next week.

[/img] BMW have a history of creating sledgehammer GT3s. They just don’t do ‘just enough’ when ‘all-in’ is an option. Back in 2009, BMW Alpina’s supertanker-size B6 GT3 dwarfed pretty much everything else on track, its supercharged V8 delivering a unique rasp. The factory Z4 GT3 that followed took what was a pretty compact pseudo-roadster on the street and bolted on planet-side fenders and aero to make a low-slung Batmobile of a racer that stood out from the pack: it too carried a rumbling V8 that meant you heard it coming before you saw it.

2016’s M6 GT3 was hardly a shrinking violet: again BMW opted for one of the larger cars in its range, still stuffed with V8 power. Over the last decade, BMW’s GT3 racers have delivered 24 Hour endurance wins at Spa, the Nürburgring and Dubai, and a huge number of victories in international championships. The Z4 alone counted for 67 race or class wins in 12 major series!

This is all meant the M4 GT3 had a lot to live up to when it was launched last year: so it won the Dubai 24 Hours at the start of 2023, so it wouldn’t feel out of place with its older sisters. And M4s also came third and fourth… So, new BMW, same as the old one, from the point of view of its competitors. M4s are competing all around the world, from IMSA through DTM to Super GT: and now you’ll be able to drive them in Raceroom!

The M4 GT3 is powered by a throaty 3-litre straight six, dialled up to 11 by twin turbos. In the typically vague parlance of GT3 manufacturers, it delivers ‘up to 590hp’: which is plenty, believe us. The gearbox is an Xtrac six-speed sequential with an electro-hydraulic clutch.

Its suspension is provided by KW’s Competition department, developed at their headquarters in Germany. The 4-way adjustable racing dampers use solid piston designs so the damper liquid doesn’t overflow the working piston – and that enables a much larger force range than normal as well as more control for the driver, no matter the conditions.

The M4 GT3 adds to our already super strong GT3 field, which stretches back across a decade of this fantastic class (and includes all the previous BMW models). There are more contemporary GT3s to come in the near future, with the 992 911 GT3 R joining the fray at the beginning of July.

This release will also include two other important development updates. There will be an evolution to our GT3 physics, paying close attention to balance of performance, power to weight ratios, downforce/drag and other general performance indicators. We are also introducing a new FFB linearity update, which will be more dynamic and will allow us to tune the forces on a per-car basis. It should make all the cars feel more grounded and solid to drive, particularly at low speed. It will makes the existing FFB Linearity slider obsolete, so that will be removed with the update.

Free Access To All Cars And Tracks

Set your self free with Raceroom!

Raceroom has one of the largest and widest rosters of licensed cars and tracks in the sim racing world - and now you are able to drive any one of them for free.
From June 18th until June 25th, when you fire up Raceroom you’ll be able to access all our content without restriction: that’s over 200 cars and over 50 tracks waiting for you to experience.

We’ve built up an incredible collection of cars over the years, across all motorsport disciplines and from every era. If you’ve only ever dipped your toe into Raceroom before, this is your chance to really get a feel for the full range. If you’ve already purchased content but were unsure about how a particular car would drive, now is the chance to take it for a spin without risk. All our cars are grouped by both manufacturer and class: and you can choose from 46 manufacturers and 77 classes!





Want to climb the single-seater ladder? Start with something like the Tatuus F4, before moving on to faster and more aero-dependent Formula cars on the way to the pinnacle of Formula Raceroom. If you love GTs, we’ve got the full gamut, from vintage Group 5 monsters through to modern GT3 and GT4 machinery, via the fire-breathing GT1 era and more.

Our passion for racing and the freedom of the Raceroom environment has also allowed us to present you with some very different machinery, such as Volkswagen’s lightspeed-quick ID.R electric hillclimb special, brutal race trucks, track-day specials such as the McLaren Mercedes SLR 722 GT - and then at the other end of the scale even a high-powered go-kart crossed with a shopping trolley!





We’ve also built on strong relationships with major series such as DTM and WTCR to bring you officially-licensed content that uniquely allows you to play through multiple seasons, with the real cars that competed in each year. Want to try and be the World Touring Car champion ten years running? In Raceroom you can set up single player championships that will take you from the WTCC era of 2013 all the way through to the current WTCR generation. It’s the same with DTM (whether the classic saloons of the ‘90s, the legendary silhouettes of the 2000s or the modern GT3 spec), the Porsche Carrera Cup and ADAC GT Masters.

Similarly with circuits: there’s a world of opportunity for you to sample. We’ve deliberately made some tracks that are relatively unknown but deserve your attention: certainly our national Swedish tracks fit that category, tight, twisty and challenging. Want to really test your touring car chops: try a lap around the fearsome Macau circuit, where the walls close in around you. We also feature many major tracks from the F1 calendar, a great selection of classic American courses (including Laguna Seca, Sears Point and Daytona) and, of course, the mother of all racing circuits: the Nürburgring Nordschleife.






You can use this free trial period to try out all four of Raceroom’s game modes. You can race alone against our customisable AI drivers in single races or create your own multi-event championship; try and set the fastest lap for any given car and track combination in our Leaderboard challenges; compete for glory (and prizes!) in our regular esports competitions; or become part of the active Raceroom online community and participate in any of our multiplayer races, which are live 24 hours a day.

So dive in – and have fun! The free period will directly followed by our Summer Sale, commencing June 26th. There will be big discounts on all cars, tracks and packs, so you can take full advantage after sampling Raceroom in the coming weeks.
