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.

Another good idea

I think that it would be a vey cool idea to put the concept of turf, but different into a new mode. What it is basically is lobbies that have the same rating system as turf, just that you dont get points towards anything but also, no one can join their friends in those lobbies. it's a great way to race people that are the same speed as you

    Knowing Cie and Glu they would charge you like 100 gems just to get into a lobby like that. It took them a few months to even make an update to fix problems that have been happening for a long time, and they STILL happen. Don't get your hopes up

    A good idea would be to get the game operating smoothly, eliminate damge on people that foul against you, keep your boost since you didnt foul, eliminate the disconnect win/loses/dnf issues, add an option to remove nos/turbo/sc, fix the the car ratings from jumping to other lobbies even though they were tuned specifically for other lobbies, add matte paint jobs (been asking for over a year), option to add decals, wheel paint, option to add multiple boost rather than 3 per 5 gems (give us bundle deals on boost), stress free test track for tuning and practicing with team memebers (said it was coming a long time ago), damge drops partially as a reward during wins to continue racing and not wait 10+ hours for repairs on A-S-R class cars.I can keep going....

    That would get more people playing and make the game alot better, as long as everyone keeps buying gems and cars they won't add free or cheaper anything. Lol
