PC Building Simulator Update v1.9

Shodan/ Ottobre 30, 2020/ PC Building Simulator

Hello PC Builders!

Today we’re inviting you to hop on and enjoy our latest patch, v1.9 which is one of our biggest yet. In this update we’re announcing the AORUS Workshop DLC along with heaps of fresh hardware including Intel’s 10th generation Comet Lake and AMD’s Ryzen XT CPUs. Finally, thanks to all the community feedback we’re rolling out some new difficulty settings for the Esports Expansion DLC. But first, by popular demand…

Introducing the MSI GeForce RTX™ 3090

As many of you who reached out to us via social media, Discord, and the support email know; we’re consistently working around the clock to bring the latest hardware to the game. Today we get to reveal the first NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 30 Series graphics cards in PC Building Simulator, with special thanks to the team at MSI.

AORUS Workshop DLC

Created in collaboration with AORUS powered by GIGABYTE we’re unleashing a brand new workshop space giving players an exciting change of scenery. Featuring a high tech aesthetic, plenty of space to build, and giving centre stage to the famed AORUS ROBOT mascot.

Esports Expansion DLC

Over the past few months we’ve heard significant feedback from the community around the Esports Expansion. Initially we followed up with a number of bug fixes and pledged to address the concerns reported over the launch. Today we’re pushing a number of adjustments, including difficulty toggles. These can be applied to both new and existing games – tweaking timers, revealing hidden objectives and more to customise your experience. Try them out and let us know what you think.

We’ve also received additional input on our Chinese localisation, this has allowed us to ensure that the translated job objectives are significantly clearer and more understandable to players than before.

New parts

Additionally, in this update we’re bringing in over 60 extra parts along with another new feature for PC Building Simulator making it easier than ever to find the ones you want.
