Le Mans Ultimate Releases Innovative Co-op Game Mode, Save & Load System and 2024 Pack 2 DLC

MIAMI, Sept. 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Motorsport Games Inc. (NASDAQ: MSGM) (“Motorsport Games” or “the Company”) has released the September Update for “Le Mans Ultimate”, the official game of the FIA World Endurance Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. This latest update, available now, includes a new co-op game mode, a completed Hypercar grid, and the release of iconic new content for fans of sportscar and sim racing.

New game features in this update include a newly released co-op mode that allows players to race with friends, taking turns completing stints and handing over control to a team mate at a time that is convenient to you, working together across several days or weeks to complete a longer endurance race. The game mode is aimed at promoting flexible play and offers the chance to climb the virtual leaderboard together.

Furthermore, for individual players looking to tackle longer races, a new save feature allows players to save the game at a pit stop and resume at their convenience. Additionally, further quality of life changes to car and season selection have been added to this release to improve player experience.

The second of four DLC packs, named “2024 Pack 2”, has also been released and includes two stunning Hypercars: the A424 LMDh from French manufacturer Alpine and the Isotta Fraschini Tipo 6 LMH. Sitting alongside the two new vehicles is the unique Circuit of the Americas, based in Texas, USA.

The pack is on sale at an early access price of £9.99 / €11.99 / $12.99 or users can purchase the Season Pass for £39.99 / €46.99 / $48.99. The Season Pass comprises four packs in total with Pack 1 released in July 2024. The two following packs are expected for users to enjoy in December 2024 and Early 2025 respectively and are scheduled to include 7 GT3 cars and 2 circuits with all users receiving 2 additional GT3 cars as a free download without purchase.

Further to the paid content updates, all 2024 LMP2 and Hypercar liveries have been included in this release for all users.

“Our September update marks a significant milestone for Le Mans Ultimate, as we continue to enhance the player experience with new game modes, features, and exciting content from the 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship,” said Stephen Hood, CEO of Motorsport Games. “We’ve listened to our community, and this update delivers a co-op mode that’s perfect for playing with friends as well as the ability to resume endurance races using a new save feature. With the completion of the Hypercar grid and the iconic Circuit of the Americas joining the game, we’re excited for players to dive in and experience all that’s new.”

Motorsport Games also announced that the introductory Early Access pricing will expire on October 1, 2024, as more content and features are added to the game. After that date, the base game price will increase to £28.99 / €34.99 / $37.99, providing an opportunity for those on the fence to take advantage of the current lower price.
