This blog post aims to delve deep into the intricacies of Reiza Studios’ latest additions, examining the Le Mans expansion while uncovering the often overlooked brilliance of Automobilista 2 .
Automobilista 2 emerges as a well-rounded simulator, excelling in multiple crucial aspects that define a top-tier racing experience:
While AMS 2 might not top the charts in any single category, its consistent performance across various aspects positions it as a standout contender in the simulator landscape. The only drawback seems to lie in the online component, a factor crucial for sustaining an active player base.
Reiza Studios’ strategy involves the introduction of additional content through downloadable content (DLC). The Le Mans expansion encompasses the legendary circuit and a fleet of new cars, each available as a separate DLC priced at 9 euros, aligning with the industry standard.
This approach allows players to tailor their experience, choosing specific elements of interest. Reiza’s focus on economic viability and familiarity with certain types of content is evident, as they continue to capitalize on proven and popular additions.
The Le Mans circuit, a pinnacle in endurance racing, has been meticulously recreated in AMS 2. Leveraging scan data from this year, the recreation stands on par with industry leaders such as iRacing and surpasses the realism presented in GT7.
The introduction of three Le Mans prototypes – Porsche, BMW, and Cadillac – adds an exciting dimension to AMS 2. Each prototype, despite notable differences in engines and sounds, is balanced for competitive play.
The new additions not only expand the AMS 2 vehicle roster but also showcase Reiza Studios’ commitment to delivering diverse and racing experiences.
The dynamics between Reiza Studios and ACO, the circuit owner and WEC organizer, present an intriguing narrative. The extension of the Le Mans Esports series agreement between ACO and MSGM for ten years seemed to secure exclusive access until 2031. However, recent events at MSGM may have altered this trajectory.
While celebrating the success of the Le Mans expansion, it’s crucial to acknowledge the challenges AMS 2 faces, particularly in the online domain. Strengthening the online component is pivotal for attracting and retaining a larger player base.
