Coming Soon: Assetto Corsa Rally
Introduction
Recently, Kunos Simulazioni announced its most recent installment: Assetto Corsa Rally . Currently, it is scheduled for Early Access release on November 13, 2025 via Steam. While its full release date is yet to be determined, this blog will serve to examine the title's newest features and establish what to expect in the coming months for rally sim racing.
Supernova Games Studios, a fresh face in the sim racing world, is taking on the challenge of bringing the same realism that Assetto Corsa is known for into the growing world of rally racing. With Kunos Simulazioni’s technical oversight, fans can expect a strong focus on physics accuracy, terrain simulation, and driving dynamics that push the boundaries of what rally simulations have achieved thus far.
Overview
Assetto Corsa Rally is listed on Steam as a "high-fidelity rally sim built for precision and challenge." The title features an overhauled physics engine, which is refined for rally driving and powered by Unreal Engine 5. Players can expect 3D laser-scanned environments, realistic terrain deformation, and authentic vehicle behavior across gravel, dirt, and tarmac surfaces. Moreover, the Early Access version will include ten licensed rally cars, four real-world stages, and both offline and online gameplay modes. Future updates are planned to expand the car roster, introduce more rally stages, add VR support, and implement a full rally school mode for players to refine their skills.
Some of the officially licensed cars included in Early Access are the 1972 Alfa Romeo GTA 1300 Junior Gr.2, 2021 Hyundai i20 N Rally2, 1964 Mini Cooper S Gr.2, and 2020 Peugeot 208 Rally4. The incorporation of rally cars from different generations of automobiles highlights the developer's dedication to showcasing the evolution of rally racing over the decades.
Key Features
One of the standout features of this title is its fully reworked physics system, built in Unreal Engine 5. The new system aims to provide a more authentic and responsive driving experience; each surface behaves differently, so sim racers will feel transitions between loose gravel, compact dirt, and smooth tarmac surfaces. The aforementioned environments are created using advanced 3D laser-scanning technology, ensuring precise track geometry and realistic environmental detail. Additionally, weather and surface conditions will dynamically evolve during stages, forcing drivers to adapt their techniques as grip levels shift.
Four real stages will be able to drive in the Early Access stage, including Rally Alsace Munster and Saverne, as well as Rally Wales Hafren South and North. Each of these stages can be driven within free practice, rally weekend, single rally stages, time attack with online leaderboards, and Assetto Corsa Rally Events with online leaderboards.
What to Expect
As the title approaches its Early Access launch, players can anticipate a focused and evolving experience. The initial release is expected to emphasize driving realism, car physics, and terrain accuracy rather than an abundance of content. Early Access players will have the opportunity to test core mechanics, provide feedback, and help shape future updates as the developers refine stage design and visual performance.
Over time, updates will expand the game’s roster of cars and rally locations, introduce new weather systems, and improve AI and multiplayer functionality. With Kunos Simulazioni providing technical guidance and Supernova Games Studios aiming to establish their presence in sim racing, Assetto Corsa Rally is set to develop throughout its Early Access phase into a full, authentic rally simulation experience.
Conclusion
Overall, the release of Assetto Corsa Rally is shaping up to be a major step forward for both the franchise and the rally sim community. Its combination of advanced physics, laser-scanned stages, and a diverse lineup of vehicles suggests a serious focus on realism and long-term development.
While the Early Access version will serve as a foundation, ongoing updates promise to expand the experience into one of the most comprehensive rally simulators to date.
