A new official NASCAR game is coming this year. NASCAR Heat 5 is still developed by 704Games, but now has their new investors, Motorsport Games, as publisher.
NASCAR Heat 5 will feature all the teams, cars and drivers of not only the NASCAR Cup Series, but also the many series that makes up stock car racing, including the NASCAR Xfinity Series, NASCAR Gander RV& Outdoors Truck Series, and NASCAR Xtreme Dirt Series.
The game will have two-player split-screen, as well as online racing up to 40 players. Later after NASCAR Heat 5 is launched, expect to see the official eNASCAR Heat Pro League using the game.
Gameplay-wise, expect to see the Career Mode returning, with “improved statistics”, and a new Testing Mode to make the perfect car setup for each track, or just practice the racing line. Doing left turns all day isn’t as easy as it looks.
NASCAR Heat 5 will be out on July 7th for the PS4, PC (Steam) and Xbox One.
