iRacing Studios Developing INDYCAR Racing Game, Releasing in 2026 on Consoles and PC​

iRacing Studios is on full steam ahead. Last week, the studio announced iRacing Arcade, an “over the top” arcade racer that appeals to all, developed in partnership with Vancouver studio Original Fire Games...

Great news! Let's hope they don't screw this up and release a good game. With a good and engaging career mode this game has a lot of potential.

I love how iRacing was a breakaway from Papyrus only to go full circle to make a NASCAR and an Indycar game

If it's good for PSVR2, TAKE MY 💵!
Played 1 or more of the old Papyrus games on pc with a joystick for input.

I have confidence in this one now since the NASCAR game looks like its cooking well

Let’s see if their Nascar game supports it, as this presumably will run on the same engine.

Ah never mind, it’s using the Exocross engine which as far as I know doesn’t have VR support even on PC.

Based on your profile, I’m guessing St. Pete? iRacing recently announced that they’re already working on the track, likely because of this upcoming IndyCar game. The only tracks that are up in the air are Thermal Club, Detroit and Toronto.

Edit: Forgot about Arlington. Hopefully all these tracks are under development for IndyCar and iRacing.
