Over the course of the last five years, Racing Rivals has grown into one of the most hardcore racing games in the world. This loyal community has spent countless hours competing in millions of races in “winner take all” fashion – all in the name of Turf Wars and pink slips.

However, all good things must come to an end… After spending time evaluating Rivals and its future – we’ve decided that it’s time to move on. Simply put, the revenue generated from Racing Rivals unfortunately no longer covers the cost of operations. This was not an easy decision to make.

On March 31st, 2019 – Rivals will be racing off into the sunset, and will be permanently shut down. Current players have until this date to utilize any accumulated virtual currency. We’ll be offering some massive reductions in the cost of crates, installs and repairs in addition to a reduction on timers as you race your way into the history books. Effective immediately, no new in-app purchases will be permitted.

In closing, a resounding and sincere THANK YOU to our extremely driven fans for your loyalty and dedication over the years – we hope you’ve enjoyed playing Racing Rivals as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it.

Account Update Issue

Hey everyone, we're aware that there are a lot of players getting the "Account Update" message and are working on it. We added some more race servers to try and alleviate the issue while we look into the issue more.

    Is it dumb of me to hope a fix for these issues will be done before this turf? It's hard to score points when I can't race.

    So our time frames are estimates. We plan on things, yet sometimes those plans have to be changed. I suppose we could get an incomplete fix out sooner than later, but that wouldn't help would it? We try and keep you all informed as much as we can, so where everyone gets the "we don't care" attitude. Is it taking longer than expected, yes. Is our team still hard at work on it, yes. Will we have it out soon, we hope so.

    Also just to clarify. Our content team is different from the team that "fixes" stuff. We all have our jobs here. Our content guys will continue to do their job, our "fix it guys" will continue to fix things.
