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.

It's my understanding that your company has, or is in the process of purchasing C I E games, in particular; the title: Racing Rivals. I have a few questions regarding game activity after ownership is completed. Will all current features of the game remain the same in the immediate future or will there be sweeping changes right away? Will we have a place in the forums right away? Do you intend to restrict purchases of cars and game cash made outside the game (via fb pages or forums),or transfers of same across accounts via multiple "pinking"? Will all current "tickets" submitted to C I E. Customer support, be handled to completion or will applicant need to resend tickets to GLU support? Do you expect any significant downtime of the game or aspects of the game during the transition from C I E to GLU ownership? Thank you for your time and consideration.
