Tracksets

Tracksets, also known as track packs or DLC tracks, are downloadable content for racing video games that add new courses or circuits to the game. These can be purchased individually or as part of a larger bundle. Tracksets can range from simple reskins of existing tracks to entirely new environments with unique layouts and challenges. They often expand the lifespan of a game by providing fresh content for players to race on, and can cater to specific player preferences, such as introducing more technical circuits or off-road courses. The availability and nature of tracksets vary significantly between different racing game franchises and developers. Some games offer extensive trackset libraries, while others may have fewer or no trackset options. The development of tracksets often involves significant effort to ensure they integrate seamlessly with the existing game mechanics and offer a balanced racing experience. They are a common monetization strategy in the gaming industry, allowing developers to continue supporting and updating their games post-launch.
