A huge new update has arrived for BeamNG.drive today, adding the new Civetta Scintilla supercar, nearly 100 new challenges, a revised garage plus countless other fixes and improvements.
The team behind BeamNG.drive has today (15th June 2022) released a gargantuan update to their eponymous physics-based driving game, updating the sim to v0.25.
The headline feature of v0.25 is the addition of the Civetta Scintilla supercar. This V10, mid-engined monster features advanced stability control modes and active aero, as well as V8 engine variations – both petrol and diesel. Yeuch.
Somewhat akin to the Lamborghini Huracán and Audi R8, the car also features an automatic nose lift to help with those pesky speed bumps. Although part of the fun of BeamNG is hitting those speed bumps at high speed…
The Civetta also features police, rally, off-road, drag and race variants, which are sure to please all BeamNG users no matter their favoured driving style.
The v0.25 update for BeamNG.drive also adds nearly 100 new missions to the game, including new Hypermiling, Crawl, Target Jump, Drag, Drift and Cannon mission types.
Yes, cannon missions. One involves taking down pigeons from a building’s roof. Why? Because BeamNG. Meanwhile, hypermiling is all about fuel-saving, analogous to those similar challenges in Gran Turismo 7, while Soccer Pit, yes that’s Soccer Pit, is a Beam take on Rocket League or Switch Sports Football.
The Driver Training campaign has also been absorbed by BeamNG’s mission system, with new challenges taking this part of the game up to 14 separate tests.
Garage Mode makes a return, with an updated User Interface helping make this area an ideal location for screenshots of your favourite cars – with or without their bodywork attached. Camera presets have been added alongside the ability to click through lighting for the vehicles and the garage environment.
The new update is expansive in its scope, with are gargantuan quantity of improvements and bug fixes.
Other notable additions include force feedback adjustments, carbon-ceramic brakes, traffic system upgrades, Steam Deck functionality fixes as well as vehicle updates to the Soliad Wendover, Hirochi SBR4, ETK 800-Series, ETK K-Series, Gavril H-Series, Cherrier FCV and Bruckell Bastion.
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg!
BeamNG has enjoyed ongoing development since its inception in 2013 and the team behind it stressed in our podcast late last year how much effort and attention to detail goes into every update.
