The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews, with many users noting that they are outdated compared to modern racing titles like Assetto Corsa and Forza. While some appreciate the game's optimization and decent performance, others criticize the visuals as lacking detail and immersion, often likening them to early PS3-era graphics. Overall, the consensus is that while the graphics may not be cutting-edge, they are functional enough for a racing simulation, with a focus on gameplay and physics over visual fidelity.
“While iRacing may not boast the graphical fidelity of some modern racers like Gran Turismo 7 or Forza, its visuals are more than adequate for the simulation genre.”
“The graphics are not bad by any means; they give more accessibility to people with less powerful PCs.”
“Nice sharp graphics, very good physics, laser-scanned tracks, constant updates, and of course, a top multiplayer racing system.”
“The graphics are extremely outdated by now; other games like AC and LMU make this look like it comes from the Stone Age.”
“The outdated graphics are okay if it didn't take such a toll on your FPS for no reason.”
“The graphics are awful; the game looks terrible. I know that is not really so important in a racing sim, but it's 2024, and I feel like I am back in the early PS2 or PS3 era.”
