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.

    The black screen issue should be resolved now. You might need to force quit and restart but people have reported the fix worked for them.

    I'm not trying to sound like an @ss, but black screen or app crash whatever you want to call it, it still hasn't worked sense the update I've forced stoped the app cleared cash removed app couple times and crashes as it says loading garage. I understand you have reports of it working but by the looks of the forums it's still very buggy and a lot of people can't even load the app to make a ticket if they need to. Like I said my account is there just the app is crashing there is a bug it's not even close to being fixed

    Hey Turboz31! If you are unable to connect to Google Play here are some things to try:

    1. check that you are logged in with a valid Google account
    2. Update your Play Store application by opening and updating it
    3. Double-check that you have a valid payment method set up on the Google account that you are using. If your primary payment method is a credit card, you might also want to check with your credit card company whether your card has any restrictions on in-app or online purchases.
    4. Ensure your user controls are set properly and that you know your pin if you have set one up. You can view it in the play store app under menu-settings-user controls
    5. Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on
    6. Try resetting (turn off and on) your wireless router


    If you are still unable to make a purchase or connect, you might have to contact Google as they may have blocked purchases.

    You can contact them here: https://support.google.com/googleplay/contact

    Please visit https://support.google.com/googlepla...content/?hl=en for further information about Google Play and purchases on Android devices.
