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.

    This hot fix was only applied to the Turf Wars and Showdown events, and it's working like a charm!

    It will not be implemented to live multiplayer lobbies until they can sort out a couple issues it's causing there.

    I'm not entirely sure it needs to be applied to multiplayer. With the amount of folks jumping around, joining friends, etc....the roster of folks in a lobby at any given time is constantly changing, and in the 2 years I've been playing, I've yet to see a "multiplayer lobbies are always full of the same people" complaint. If anything, the complaint I see about multiplayer is the lobby jumpers.

    If you mean in multiplayer....that's interesting. The refresh works for me, and usually toggles between two different lobbies. I presume it would toggle through more if there were enough folks online in the same bracket as what I'm running.

    I have noticed in turf....if I hit refresh....it cycled through 5 different lobbies...so that is definitely working.
