With the Early Access release of the Le Mans Ultimate endurance racing game/simulator coming up on Tuesday the 20th of February, Motorsport Games and developer Studio 397 shared some new media showcasing the Japanese Fuji Speedway.
The Fuji International Speedway is a racing circuit currently owned by the Toyota Motor Corporation. The FIA Grade 1 track is situated on the base of Mount Fuji, in Oyama, Japan. The 4.563 km (2.835 miles) long track was built in the early 1960s and hosted the first Formula One race in Japan in 1976.
These days Fuji International Speedway is the chosen venue for many different disciplines such as the Super GT, Formula Nippon, Formula 4, Porsche Carrera Cup Japan, D1 Grand Prix, GT World Challenge Asia, Japanse TCR, and of course the FIA World Endurance Championship.
Le Mans Ultimate will feature (some or all) official cars and circuits of the 2023 FIA World Endurance Championship WEC season, with the 24 Hours of Le Mans as its headline event. The cars list will consist of Hypercars from Ferrari, Peugeot, Porsche, and Toyota, alongside all the 2023 full-season WEC championship cars. You can expect high-fidelity models of iconic tracks such as Spa-Francorchamps, Monza, Fuji, and of course the Circuit de la Sarthe.
Initially scheduled to become available on PC somewhere in December 2023, the release date, was pushed back to 20 February 2024. Motorsport Games will later on evaluate a possible console release in 2024.
