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.

Games just getting worse by the day

Just as the title says, this game is getting worse by the day. I'm now getting the restart error forcing me to reload the game. Also whenever I attempt to race some one it either times out or says they're busy when they show up as available? And I would understand if it was just a few people but the entire lobby? I'm afraid to even pink some one now just to avoid getting the restart error while doing a pinks. I would've assumed the unannounced server maintenance that happened a few days ago would've addressed these issues. These problem are not persisting because of lack of employees. They make more than enough money to be able to hire people. Just disappointing because the game has a lot of potential only reason I stay is because it reminds me a lot of the drags in NFS underground.

    The timing out and the racers being busy has to do with servers not working, I believe they are currently working on that. This problem also happened I believe last turf so they're doing the same and adding more servers. And the best thing to do right now is not pink. If you pink there's a high possibility of you losing your car due to launch button failing, shift getting stuck, game crashing, or some type of error

    Yeah I'm having the same problems. I can't even get into a lobby...and when I do I get a timeout and lose a boost from not even getting to use it in a race. Waste of money on gems to just lose them for nothing. Also I'm getting a lot of the account updated and restart bs. Not to mention when I do get to race it's always a "tie". Great game huh
