Developer iRacing has unveiled the career mode of Nascar 25 in a newly released developer diary, and confirmed the game is coming to PC and consoles this year.
The new video features Executive Producer Dale Earnhardt Jr and 2024 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Champion Ty Majeski, along with other members of the development team for “an inside look at the game’s all-new Career Mode”. Check it out, below.
This is the first Nascar title from iRacing (a studio founded in 2003), though the team has previous work in the genre, adding that it is: “the developers behind the most authentic motorsport racing simulation in the world. iRacing is bringing decades of racing expertise to NASCAR 25, including developers who worked on fan-favorite NASCAR games like NASCAR Racing 2003, NASCAR: Dirt to Daytona, and entries from the NASCAR Thunder series.”
NASCAR 25 will feature all four premier NASCAR series – the NASCAR Cup Series, Xfinity Series, Craftsman Truck Series, and, appearing along NASCAR series in a standalone title for the first time, the ARCA Menards Series. All four series, along with real drivers from each, will feature extensively in NASCAR 25’s Career Mode, as well as in other gameplay modes such as quick races, seasons, and online multiplayer.
Career Mode will kick off in your backyard garage, where you’ll customize your vehicle before making your debut in the ARCA Menards Series and honing your skills to advance up the ranks. There’s more to a successful career than just racing – you’ll sign contracts, earn money, hire staff, expand your facilities, and make public appearances to build your reputation. Strategic choices off the track will play a pivotal role in your journey to becoming a NASCAR Cup Series champion. On the racetrack, you’ll have more interaction with your crew chief and spotter than ever before.
Nascar 2025 is coming to PC and consoles “later this year“.
