Le Mans Ultimate adds 2026 ELMS liveries

Studio 397 has announced an upcoming update for Le Mans Ultimate featuring authentic liveries from the 2026 European Le Mans Series season. The new paint schemes will reflect the real-world cars competing in the current championship.

The update coincides with activity in both real and virtual motorsport. The ELMS will host its fourth round—the 4 Hours of Silverstone—on 12–13 September, followed a week later by a special virtual tournament in Le Mans Ultimate at the same circuit on 18–20 September.

Developers showcased two LMP2 prototypes in Nielsen Racing colours as examples, displaying the team's blue-and-white 2026 scheme. The LMP2 class remains the headline category in ELMS, competing at every round alongside LMGT3 and LMP3, with 47 cars entered across the season.

No exact release date has been confirmed, with Studio 397 only stating the update will arrive "soon"—expected before the Silverstone virtual event begins.
