Real Racing 3 gets 24h of Le Mans Hypercars in its latest update.
RR3 is over a decade old now but it's still receiving regular updates thanks to the tireless work of developers Firemonkeys Studios.
The headline of Update 12.4 is that the popular mobile game is getting officially-licensed Le Mans Hypercars, but what else is included? We've got everything you need to know right here!
Real Racing 3 Gets 24h of Le Mans Hypercars
Le Mans Hypercars are making their debut in Real Racing 3 in this latest update. These are the only examples of officially-licenced World Endurance Championship cars outside of the Le Mans: Ultimate game.
These include the Oreca 07 LMP2 and the Ferrari 499P. Unsurprisingly, these cars will cost you a lot of in-game currency.
Just like their real-life equivalents, they don't come cheap, with the Oreca costing M$2.5m and the Ferrari M$2.75m.
Update 12.4 is live now and here's everything included in it!
Rounds in, Rounds out
Update 14.2 signals the start of Round 7 in Real Racing 3. This began on May 20 and will run until July 1.
The Grand Prize for Round 7 is the BMW M2 Competition and the alternative Grand Prize is 75 Gold.
Round 3 of Season 3 will expire soon, too, with this being taken out of the game on July 16.
