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.

My favorite thing about this game, by far

My absolute favorite thing about this game, is that you have to actually know about cars to be fast (on your own.) Without any type of help from others, or paying for a tune, or paying for the correct shift points, if you are actually into cars in real life, you won't have to ask anybody for any of that. The game has given you everything you need to know to be fast. The launch is a little tricky but the tuning, the shift points (two big parts of being fast,) you actually have to know about cars. Those that are actually IN the car scene and have had their own car tuned and understand power to weight ratio know what I'm talking about...

    Lots of negative threads about this game so I figured I'd post something positive. Post things you actually 'LIKE' about this game in this thread, let's give the developers some kind of credit.

    This is a top racing game hands down for any portable device. It's not a playstation or x-box level gaming system is what people forget. With that said, CIE is managing to put out a pretty damn good product glitches aside. I see this as a game that can continue to grow with tons of replay value.

    Let's be honest, this game makes you feel all kinds of emotions, which is what humans look for in any kind of entertainment. Whether it's a movie or a game or a concert etc. That's what gets you hooked on the game. I'm sure most of us and remember that feeling of winning your first pinks race. And the feeling of losing that first pinks race too. Or risking your favorite car and getting nervous and fouling it to your opponent. Sometimes I wanna throw my phone across the room. Sometimes I wanna celebrate when I break a personal record or win a really nice car. It's a roller coaster ride. Fun game for sure!

    And we intend to keep it going. There are some amazing features in the future, by the end of this year Rivals will be so different you may as well call it Rivals 2, we've been listening to all the feedback and are working to create a game that shows both our vision and love for racing as well as usability and all the fan service we can get in there.
