    EA listens to fans, there will be no new F1 video game in 2026

    There will not be an official Formula 1 game in 2026. Confirmed. Instead, there will be an F1 26 DLC pack for EA SPORTS F1 25 - including the new cars, liveries and presumably, the Madrid circuit. During a year of significant change for the sport, the official video game will also go through some drastic steps. Then, the sim racing series will return in 2027, but in a “reimagined” form.

    Forza Horizon 6 is real, and in Japan - All we know so far

    Forza Horizon 6 is officially official in Japan, definitely confirmed. But, what else is there to spot so far? Traxion has sifted through the trailer, spotted locations on Google Maps, read all of the available FAQs, and this is everything we know so far about Forza Horizon 6. Such as, when will the PS5 version launch? What should you expect from the Japanese setting? Aren't there other open-world driving games already in the same country? Will the change of leadership affect the end result? Is it on Xbox One? As ever, let us know your thoughts in the comments below, including which Japanese cars you would like to see included in FH6.

  7. Le Mans Ultimate hits consoles and Virtual Series returns!

    Le Mans Ultimate hits consoles and Virtual Series returns!

    Le Mans Ultimate is coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, ELMS DLC starts to arrive in September and the Le Mans Virtual Series is set to return, with qualifying starting later this year. That’s a big dump of headline news for LMU drivers, oh and there’s going to be an in-game livery shop. Join John Munro and Thomas Harrison-Lord as they break down the latest updates, not forgetting that a career mode should arrive in early 2026. The console porting deal is said to be in the “late state negotiations” with development work set to commence in the “coming weeks”. It all comes from Motorsport Games and Studio 397 CEO Stephen Hood, who dropped the updates during a positive earnings call where a second successive quarter of profit was recorded for the once floundering outfit.

    The Current State of Assetto Corsa EVO

Be sure to let us know your EVO thoughts on social media, and we’re still excited to see its hopeful redemption arc through 2025 and beyond!
