The latest update for the GT racing sim Assetto Corsa Competizione improves some third-party racing wheels, including the CSL Elite and DD Pro on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles. The force feedback (FFB) is now better than before, and you can even modify FFB settings on Thrustmaster wheels for Xbox Series X/S.
Aside from the improved force feedback, you can also bind certain in-game actions to the left and right wheel triggers. Using racing wheels when playing games like Assetto Corsa Competizione provides a better and more realistic experience.
For some console-specific changes, Bronze, Silver, and Gold trophies are now fixed on PS5. In addition, a fix has been added to stop the persistent crashes when quitting a private lobby via the pause menu on Xbox Series X/S.
