New NASCAR Game In Development For PS4, Xbox One, and PC

DMi Games purchases the licencee for NASCAR from Eutechnyx.

The new "NASCAR Interactive Entertainment publisher" DMi, Inc. has revealed the status and future of the NASCAR video game series, in an open letter to NASCAR video game fans.

"As of January 1, 2015, DMi became NASCAR’s exclusive licensee for video games and digital entertainment," wrote DMi president Ed Martin. “It is a deal that had been in the works for several months. But it was something that could not be disclosed until everything was finalized. And by "everything", I mean a very long and complex set of negotiations and agreements. Just to give you some context, a contemporary NASCAR video game has over 1,000 licensed and approved properties in it. That’s a lot of stakeholders and people to get organized!"

"We are already hard at work on several new games including an all-new NASCAR racing sim created by DMi for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC that we expect to release in 2016," continued Martin.

Lastly Martin explained that DMi has also acquired some existing NASCAR games, including NASCAR Manager, which it plans to re-release soon. He also clarified that Eutechnyx was working on a 2015 update to NASCAR ’14 which will be released in the coming months for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC but it will not be a DMi game.
