DTM 40th ANNIVERSARY CONTENT

In celebration of the 40th anniversary of the DTM racing series, the entire team behind RaceRoom is excited to introduce new content that is sure to bring joy to historic and contemporary DTM fans alike:

1. Full Grid of DTM 1995

  • New Cars: Addition of the Alfa Romeo 155 V6 Ti and Opel Calibra V6 to the existing Mercedes lineup.
  • Historic Tracks: Hockenheim Classic, Avus, and Diepholz tracks from the 1995 DTM season.

2. DTM 2024 Car Pack

  • Audi R8 LMS Evo II
  • BMW M4 GT3
  • Ferrari 296 GT3
  • Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO2 (NEW, featuring in RaceRoom for the first time)
  • McLaren 720S GT3 Evo (NEW, featuring in RaceRoom for the first time)
  • Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo
  • Porsche 911 GT3 R (992)

OSCHERSLEBEN – LASER SCAN RELEASE

We are also excited to re-release the Oschersleben track as a laser-scanned version in this update. As one of the first tracks in RaceRoom, it previously suffered from some inaccuracies that did not fully satisfy real drivers using RaceRoom for practice.

This new laser-scanned version addresses those concerns, providing a more accurate and immersive experience. While we typically provide regular track updates free of charge, this new version was built from scratch using a laser scan and therefore will not be free but we will offer it to our loyal fans at
a discount during the initial release period.

We will stop selling the old version to ensure our community enjoys the most accurate racing experience.

FREE TRACK UPDATES

In addition to the new content, we are also releasing free updates to the following tracks, bringing them to 2024 season specs, enhancing their accuracy and visual quality at no extra cost for current owners:

  • Mantorp
  • Nogaro
  • Nordschleife
  • Red Bull Ring
  • Sepang
  • Slovakiaring

In earlier game updates this year, we already released such free updates for Bathurst, Imola, Most, Portimao and Sachsenring, an approach that sets us apart: RaceRoom content continually evolves to reflect the latest changes made to the real venues, ensuring an ever-accurate racing experience.
