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.

Big problem whith the 6.0 update!

    I'm having the same issue, I've already open a thread, but I'm here to reinforce that this issue is being reported not by only one person.
    My device is a tablet Asus Nexus 7 (2013) and after loading can't reach garage and freezes the device and reboot.
    I'm playing this game for more than 2 years and my garage has almost 400 cars.
    I will do nothing except loading game until some expertize advice.
    Thanks guys!

    @dukedeath Are you using the new Droid Mini or an older version?

    @possumownage Was your Moto G 3rd gen working fine yesterday or has it been bad since the 6.0 update in general?

    Well, my account returned, I don't know if it was coincidence or no, but after loading my account in other device and in that one when loading game this time I saw miraculous the garage when in my Nexus 7 all I got was freezing and rebooting and garage only in my dreams, but after this other Device procedure now my account is running just fine in my Nexus 7 device.
    The other device was my PC running bluestacks.
    Here is my testimony, if anyone wants to try, good luck!

    I'm very glad to hear you're back up and running. We haven't seen any other real reports of people having an account problem like yours (to my knowledge) so hopefully you're the anomaly.

    I'm back, but game keeps freezing, I was turfing and when challenging a Subaru sport, the game froze. It seems that my tablet from 2013 is not able to deal with this version now.
    Do you have any reports about Nvidia shield k1 or is it a good choice to purchase?

    The Nvidia tablet should be fine, pretty good specs. Please also keep in mind though that we do intend to fix these issues so you shouldn't feel the need to rush out spend more money on a newer tablet.

    Add dragon touch x 10 tablet to your list. I bought two of these modern octocore tablets for my children to run the game on. IT'S not getting past load screen.

    @NotPhunny We're looking into it. The loading problem will have nothing to do with the device itself, but likely an asset problem on our side. As an aside, while those tablets are "new", the hardware (specifically) the graphics card) is not great. A lot of times what these off brands will do is package older hardware with a shiny new wrapper and say its new. With games like ours the the GPU is just as important as the CPU. All of that being said, once we get the fixes we're working on in and pushed out, you'll be running as close to what it used to be as we can get you.

    The team thanks you for your patience as we work to fix these issues. Hang in there, we'll get you back up as soon as we can. I expect the loading problems to be fixed outside of the main performance issues and hopefully with a back-end push - but only time will tell.

    After providing facebook information it loads to the secondary screen that says garage loading.. almost loads completely then freezes and restarts my tablet.

    I think this may be related to a separate loading issue that we're working on actually. We should have a fix for that out tomorrow.
