NASCAR is constantly evolving, wanting to keep up with the changing times. Whether it’s road courses like Chicago, plans to go international, which at this point just is a foot away from confirmation, or displaying their new EV models—they have been doing a lot.

So why should a fan favorite—gaming—be ignored? The gaming scene in NASCAR has been pretty rough, but things are gonna turn around soon. And exciting developments are happening that have even fans excited.

NASCAR console game gets an unreal upgrade

Everyone knows iRacing is the best when it comes to the overall experience of sim racing and realism. This is contrary to what NASCAR has been able to provide its fan base. But, now that the upcoming NASCAR console game for iRacing is developing, it’s an exciting time for fans. iRacing is developing the game using Unreal Engine with MGI leading the way. They have lead engineers and tech to supercharge the development of the game.

Steve Myers from iRacing said, “I think we have the group of people… that have shipped many NASCAR games. They know what these products are supposed to be. They know what customers want from these products.”

Earlier, iRacing president, Tony Gardner, had spilled details about the game. He shared that ever since iRacing acquired MGI, they have absolutely beefed up the team and grown the team from 20 to 35 employees. He further said, “They’re tapping into our car and track models and using a lot of our tech. We’ve got a system in place where they can easily import our updated tracks and features.”  So gone are the days of Unity when fans were not happy with the outcome. Now, with Unreal Engine, the gaming for sure will be to the next level.

Gardner couldn’t spill all the details yet, but he did say the game will be all about driving and career mode, which most of the fans had complaints about earlier. “We’re aiming for a top-notch driving experience. Career mode is going to be a big deal for the console version.” 

Fans are all up for it and can’t wait for the experience and they have flooded the socials with their excitement.

NASCAR fans have been waiting for an awesome game for a while now. The latest plans and updates by Steve Myers left an air of excitement and apprehension among fans. One fan said, “It better be amazing.” The NASCAR 25 has been in the works for a while now. As such, everyone is excited. Some fans left all hope of getting to experience that level of racing they wished for. But now that there is a collective effort to rejuvenate the NASCAR experience, even fans are hopeful. One fan said, “I may actually buy a NASCAR game again in like 10 years.” Echoing the same emotion, another fan said, “It better be amazing…we haven’t had a half-decent NASCAR console game in like 20 years.”

The NASCAR games were disliked by most, while gameplay was substantial, the career mode was anything but good. One fan said, “I pray that the game improves unlike 21 ignition please @iracingofficial @enascar save the day and save the NASCAR gaming community 🙏🙏”

Most just got bored with the games and the trend continued season after season and there was 0 immersion. Some fans are confident that with the recent development, NASCAR will finally have a game at part with something F1 has. One fan said, “I love iRacing, I am totally confident that it will be the best game that nascar will be able to have in its bad streak. 🤘😎”
