Assetto Corsa, F1 2017 and Project CARS 2 Featured in Steam Winter Sale

With 2017 drawing to a close, Steam has stepped in with its annual Winter Sale. As any PC player can attest, Steam sales are a never-ending torrent of impulse buys.

The next two weeks will allow plenty of time for last-minute gift options. With so many options available, we’re narrowing the focus to racing games — and there are plenty up for grabs.

At a closer look, most of the usual suspects are here, including many of the year’s newcomers. F1 2017, DiRT 4, and Project CARS 2 are three such examples. There’s a variety of racers available, so whatever you have an itch for you’re likely to find it.

For those biding their time a few of these deals will look particularly enticing. F1 2017 is a great game in our book for fans of the sport and this is an excellent opportunity to pick it up. Even better, the 1988 McLaren MP4/4 is also on sale for $1.49.

Project CARS 2 is another shoe-in with its fantastic LiveTrack 3.0 feature, and impressive car and track roster. If you’ve been watching the game develop since release, now is the time to pick it up. We reviewed the game and there’s no denying its near limitless potential.

This is only a small sample of what’s available in this year’s sale. It’s also worth mentioning those looking to pick up the two DiRT games will find better use of the bundle. Purchased separately, the two games cost $35.98; the bundle knocks that price down $3.

Overall we’d have to give the nod to Assetto Corsa. Why? Not only is the base game $11.99, but all the DLC is on sale as well. For those looking to jump in for the first time, know this: Assetto Corsa and every paid DLC will cost you $40.37 — that’s quite the steal! That’s to say nothing of the free Bonus Pack 3 DLC that includes seven new cars and Laguna Seca.

The Steam Winter Sale runs from now until 1300 EST January 4.
