    First PS5 Pro footage of BeamNG.drive shown, v0.40 update lands 19th October with the port

    YouTuber MuYe shared the first PS5 Pro footage of BeamNG.drive, showing its presentation, console interface, and limitations. Spawning too many cars can tank the frame rate as on PC, but normal play runs well even with split-screen; there are no mods in this version, though the developer says it is looking for ways to support them. All PC content will be available, including the v0.40 update launching on 19th October alongside the PS5 port, with pricing unannounced but expected to be similar to the PC version's current $24.99/£18.99.
