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.
I AM QUITTING..... reading whine posts
It's a massive undertaking that a bunch of people are willing to throw a bunch of real cash into. So the game has bugs and thieves, always will. The tie glitch hasn't cost anyone millions or dozens of cars. Those using it wouldn't bet if they didn't have the cheat. Yes, it wastes 45 seconds of your day and it is a pain, but as soon as RR deals with that, there will be a new cheat. What really chaps me are the attacks on the devs. I'll call them out when they deserve it like the race the Devs event, but it's unfair to cha theorize them as not giving a damn. No game that I know of has a more engaged team that considers the criticism and really seem to enjoy the game they're working on as much as Racing Rivals.
I for one appreciate the efforts expended on behalf of the game and it's players.
