|content=[[Companies/Motorsport Games|Motorsport Games]] has confirmed that, following the transfer of its NASCAR gaming license to iRacing, it will be pulling all sales of its NASCAR games at the end of 2024. This means that, after December 31, 2024, all NASCAR game titles and their associated downloadable content (DLC) will no longer be available for purchase on any digital platforms.

In a statement shared on X/Twitter, Motorsport Games reassured fans that, while the games will no longer be available for purchase, those who already own them will still be able to play.

"To the NASCAR game community! From December 31, 2024, all NASCAR game titles and their DLC content will no longer be available for purchase on all digital storefronts but will remain available to play after this time," the developer said.

Motorsport Games also expressed gratitude to its community, thanking fans for their enthusiasm and support over the years. "We sincerely thank our community for the enthusiasm and support you've shown for these games over the years and hope you have enjoyed racing with us," the statement concluded.

In October 2023, it was announced that iRacing had acquired the license for NASCAR’s simulation-style console racing games. Motorsport Games' subsidiary, 704 Games, will continue development, with a new NASCAR console title expected to be released in 2025.
