Motorsport Games Releases Le Mans Ultimate Version 1.0,

MIAMI, July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Motorsport Games Inc. (NASDAQ: MSGM) (“Motorsport Games”), a racing game developer and publisher, today released Le Mans Ultimate Version 1.0. This milestone marks the completion of the title’s Early Access phase and ushers in a new era of continued development and expansion for the official game of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

At the heart of the 1.0 release are two headline additions – the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR LMH and the Mercedes AMG LMGT3 now available as part of the base game at no extra cost to players. These cars, recreated with Studio 397’s renowned attention to detail, enhance the grid with world-class performance and stunning visuals, offering players an opportunity to race two of the most exciting entries from the 2025 FIA World Endurance Championship season. Additionally, the update includes the BMW M4 Evo LMGT3, revised and brought up to 2025 specifications. It is available for free to owners of the previous M4, available as part of 2024 Pack 3. The addition of 2025 season liveries is also a part of this release, with the new for 2025 car position boards for added immersion.

Beyond new vehicles, Version 1.0 brings meaningful refinements to gameplay, simulation and user experience. The LMGT3 tyre model has been revised following player and real-world feedback to reduce the steepness of grip loss and expand the thermal operating window. This update is expected to deliver a smoother, more predictable experience across all levels of skill and driving style. Usability enhancements include a reworked car setup interface, now consolidating critical elements like tyres, virtual energy, and electronics into a single, streamlined screen. The Race Weekend calendar has also been extended to support the full 2025 season, making it easier than ever for players to find and enjoy the latest content.

To simplify the purchasing experience, the game’s Steam store configuration has also been updated. The BMW M Hybrid V8 LMDh, McLaren 720S LMGT3 Evo, and Ford Mustang LMGT3 – previously listed as free DLCs – are now part of the core game. In addition, a new 2024 WEC Bundle has been introduced, providing a convenient way for players to access all post-launch content. Existing players who own partial content will be offered a dynamic discount to complete their collection.

This latest release builds on the foundations laid by the June 2025 update, which introduced transformative multiplayer features such as driver swaps, custom liveries, and team management—bringing the social and strategic elements of real-world endurance racing into the simulation space.

“Today’s launch is an important milestone for Le Mans Ultimate and our team at Motorsport Games,” said Stephen Hood, CEO of Motorsport Games. “We’ve worked closely with our community to deliver a simulation that balances authenticity with accessibility. With two spectacular new cars, updated physics, and key refinements, Version 1.0 represents an exciting moment for sportcar and sim racing fans.”

While Version 1.0 marks the end of the Early Access phase, development of Le Mans Ultimate continues at pace. The European Le Mans Series (ELMS) is currently in production, with newly built Silverstone assets already in progress. Motorsport Games and Studio 397 will showcase a hands-on build of the European Le Mans Series experience during the Silverstone ELMS weekend in September. The team is also working on a full-featured single-player career mode, offering players the ability to progress through contracts, teams, and driver reputation, with a release planned for early 2026.

“While today’s release marks the end of Early Access, it’s only the beginning of a new phase for Le Mans Ultimate,” Hood added. “We’re excited to keep building with and for our players, as we continue to evolve what this platform can be. We hope to take players on a journey with this title for years to come.”
