Assetto Corsa Competizione Reviews
Assetto Corsa Competizione isn’t a racing game for all. It doesn’t provide quick and easy thrills, with a career mode focused on building a garage full of cars and customising them to your liking. It’s a serious game for those serious about racing. Thankfully it’ll hit most of the right notes that sim fans look for. It’s just a shame that graphical fidelity has been prioritised over performance. Other than that, there’s not much to dislike here unless you’re a newcomer to the sport, or are stuck with playing with a controller.
Asseto Corsa Competizione console version is probably one of the best simulator racing games you can have on your PS4 or Xbox One. Though there are some minor issues with controls and animations, the overall experience is something that no racing fan should miss. It's a hard game, but if you're into it, it pays off really well.

A stand-alone expansion of the very popular base game, Assetto Corsa Competizione offers GT fans and racers an experience like no other.
If you live, breathe and sleep in the Cathedral of Speed, [Assetto Corsa Competizione] is definitely a massive delight for you. You will definitely enjoy the sonorous rumble of powerful cars while you thunder down the home straight, or you can forget about racing and simply power around the track sideways, regardless of your position.
Same physics and great driving system came to console alongside a lower graphic impact.

Sim racing fans clamored for years for a serious console racing sim. They have finally had their wish granted. Assetto Corsa Competizione instantly becomes the premiere realistic console racing simulation game despite the hardware limitations of the current-gen. That doesn’t make it the best console racer, just the most realistic. [OpenCritic note: Lou Sytsma separately reviewed the PC (70) and PS4 (80) versions. The scores have been averaged.]
Assetto Corsa Competizione is a must have for any car simulation fan. He breathes passion and realism. However, if it does not reach excellence at the time of this review, it is simply because it presents too many bugs. You will play it, sooner or later...

As a beginner, Assetto Corsa Competizione has such a high barrier of entry that it would take me a lot of time and dedication to explore everything the title has to offer. It's certainly an interesting experience of trying to control an incredibly fast car and going, gradually, taking milliseconds off each lap and trying to get a better time. For enthusiasts, it's certainly a valid recommendation, but for newbies to the genre I believe there is a lot to be done for this to become a receptive title.

We could define Assetto Corsa Competizione one of the best racing simulation titles ever released for this generation of consoles. The level of simulation of the title is so high as to make the titles that are considered such pale. The fact is that it is not perfect, but its moles are mostly small details that do not spoil the gaming experience proposed by Kunos Simulations.

Assetto Corsa Competizione is in a much better state in terms of content now than when it was first released in 2019. There are more tracks and teams to choose from, and playing it with a controller is nowhere near as nightmare inducing as the console port of Assetto Corsa is. With that being said, you need to understand that this is primarily a multiplayer-centered game.
An interesting racing simulator that lacks a wider variety of options but still manages to retain part of what made the original Assetto Corsa a huge surprise a few years ago.

Despite some cutbacks and limitations compared to the PC version, the sensations remain intact, unique sensations that only Kunos Simulazioni can offer today on console.

A highly entertaining and accessible racing simulation which given additional content, better AI and improved framerate would have made an essential purchase for racing fans.
When the stars align, racing in Assetto Corsa Competizione is absolutely fantastic. It is, however, marred by some questionable omissions in its configurable options, issues with some of the most popular wheels and pedals on the market, and public lobbies that aren't currently available to all regions. It can, and should, be better.
I can go on and on about the advancements and improvements that continuously grow in simulations games but let's face it, it's not going to be the last time you will hear me say that. What I can say though is the driver experience in Assetto Corsa Competizione was unique. The world textures are believable, the weather system generates a true environmental feel. The cars look great.
Assetto Corsa Competizione offers solid gameplay and accurate car handling, and sadly that's almost the only thing it can offer. The PS4 port is full of bugs and technical issues, and the career mode can use some tweaking as well. All in all, it's obviously not a perfect racing game, but if you are really into cars and have nothing more on your hands to play with, it worth a shot.

All of this puts me in a difficult spot with Assetto Corsa Competizione. On the one hand, it’s my favourite racing experience, hands down. It just handles beautifully. On the other hand, from features to gameplay modes and with regards to almost everything that doesn’t specifically involve racing, Competizione is substantially behind its peers, making this a racing experience that only the most hardcore of hardcore racing fans will get much out of.
While Assetto Corsa: Competizione offers much more variety time of day and weather changes, it lacks the depth and moddability that made Kunos Simulazioni famous in the first place. The lackluster career mode surely doesn’t help.

Jump in, it sure is to be a bumpy ride at the beginning, but Assetto Corsa Competizione is on a course to smooth sailing as one of the best racing simulators… with some cut and polish intended.
