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.

    Waiting for 7.0. Hopefully it will be tons better than 6.0. Although it would be hard to be worse.

    We have another "fix" update soon. Then 6.1 hopefully before Apple's holiday break.

    6.0 and the update is a complete FAIL. Silly sounds. Small text. Lags. The list goes on. The game is barely playable. I went from playing a few hours per day to a total of 2-3 hours total since the update.

    I hate when a company takes a great product and ruins it by trying to make it better.

    Most companies no longer listen to their customers and it's terrible.
