Le Mans Ultimate features three distinct classes of race cars, all of which feature in the 24 Hours of Le Mans as well as the 2023 FIA World Endurance Championship, those being Le Mans Hypercar (LMH), Le Mans Prototype 2 (LMP2), and Grand Touring Endurance (LMGTE). [6]

All seven tracks from the 2023 FIA World Endurance Championship are present in the game, including Sebring, Portimão, Spa-Francorchamps, Circuit de la Sarthe, Monza, Fuji, and Bahrain. [7]

Race Weekend is Le Mans Ultimate's single-player mode where players can set how many classes will be on track, weather forecast, time scaling, fuel usage scaling, and tyre wear scaling. [8]

Online multiplayer is present in early access. Players can compete in daily races, limited timed special events, or create a private session for select players to join. [8]
