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.

Ok I updated my game and now I can't play because it freezes on the cie screen. I had a old account linked to my gamecenter account and So I signed out and created a new account from scratch because I didn't like the name and now I can play and I don't want to uninstall and lose everything I payed for which is easily over $200. And I can provide my username for my current account.

Note: If your Rivals account is not associated with Game Center, you might lose access to your account. Email us at mobilesupport@ciegames (subject Raving Rivals) if that happens. Also, in order for us to assist you will need a Game Center account.
Soon to be Ex-Carbonated Community Manager
The long way - Submit a ticket to CIE and hope to have your accounts restored. However, from my understanding, this requires the user to have a game center account so it might not work for all of you.
Faster, but more frustrating way - If you really want your accounts back and have a icloud back up, restore your phones to factory settings via itunes and use icloud to restore the game to an earlier date. I tested this out on my ipad mini (I didn't have game center enable there) and it restored my phone to October 7 (my latests icloud backup). My Racing Rivals app was there as well as my second (noob) account. Of course, if you want to update to the newer version, you will eventually have to create a game center account in order to sync your account with the new update.
Hope this can help you guys out.
