NASCAR 25 released new details about the game’s mechanics within its modes, ranging from career mode to online multiplayer.<\/p>\n

The new game is based on the American race car series and features development from Monster Games, who are working with and using some of the assets from iRacing – the world-renowned racing simulator.<\/p>\n

In Episode 5 of the Developer Diary, the studio released reactions from famous drivers across the series, with a focus on what it is like being in the driver’s seat.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The video also showcased some gameplay for the first time, giving fans a glimpse of what to expect in terms of visuals and performance.<\/p>\n

It was revealed that the game will feature the Cup series, Xfinity series, Craftsman Truck, and ARCA Menards, all of which can be played in the Career Mode.<\/p>\n

Career Mode will allow players to create their drivers and cars while managing contracts, facilities, and staff as the team tries to make its way into contention.<\/p>\n

NASCAR will get its first video game in years, marking a key return for fans of the racing series.<\/p>\n

The game got announced back in 2023, when iRacing bought the exclusive license to develop a NASCAR simulator.<\/p>\n

iRacing President Tony Gardner shared his excitement for the partnership.<\/p>\n

“When we were approached with the option to acquire the license for the simulation-style NASCAR console game, which was the console game and franchise that we were dreaming about doing, it was an opportunity we couldn’t pass up,” Gardner announced in a press release.<\/p>\n

“Having the ability to build a NASCAR console game is a privilege we promise to execute with the utmost care. We look forward to working diligently with NASCAR industry stakeholders to deliver a product that provides an amazing experience for the gaming community and NASCAR fans worldwide.<\/p>\n

“With all the NASCAR game experience, console experience, resources and technology assets we already have in place, we are in a fantastic position to hit the ground running building a great NASCAR game franchise on the various platforms.”<\/p>\n

Over the coming months, the game developers should show off more of the game’s mechanics.<\/p>\n

Given iRacing’s reputation, NASCAR 25 may give players the closest thing to getting in the cockpit of an American stock car.<\/p>\n
