“Best with VR. Only issue with the VR is that the menu is Pretty laggy. Everything else is fine. I would recommend people that like Vr Sim Racing because it is JUST good And you can play it for free”
“This game is ultra realistic and amazing, I would recommend this because of that. I don't like that you have to pay for the other tracks and there are no free ones, also the fact you have to pay for the cars but i guess…”
“Nice game, bonus points for having official DTM content over the decades, from 90's to this day. Sounds are amazing, especially in chase cam mode! It's fast to get going with this and track your own progression too.…”

“it's not too bad, but don't be fooled that it's free because everything is behind a paywall and you don't really get much without it. There are definitely better options out there rather than getting this title like the…”

“Criminally underrated. 30$ package in this game gives you 27 mostly high quality tracks, and some cars - again mostly high quality. AI is decent. Graphics are good, optimization is great. Light years ahead of any PMR or Rennsport, which costs same 30$ or even more, but you cant…”
