Game developer, publisher, and eSports ecosystem provider Motorsport Games, officially announced that the NASCAR Next-Gen Ford Mustang will be coming to NASCAR 21: Ignition.
The No. 78 Live Fast Motorsports Next-Gen Ford Mustang test car will be available on Thursday, February 17, 2022, via a new “Test Drive mode” for players on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
Our development team couldn’t be happier about adding Next Gen cars to the current iteration of Ignition, especially prior to the kickoff of the 2022 NASCAR season, said George Holmquist, Vice President of Publishing and Marketing at Motorsport Games. We have shared in the excitement of our players and NASCAR fans with this highly anticipated game addition. We made sure to recreate the Next-Gen car as close to its real-life counterpart as possible and we can’t wait for everyone to get acclimated with driving the newest stock car in-game, just like the drivers will be throughout the year.
Visitors of the 2022 Daytona 500 race will have the opportunity to test drive the Next-Gen car at the eNASCAR Arcade on site. Players will be able to drive the car around the iconic Daytona International Speedway prior to the showcase event on race day. Motorsport Games representatives will be on hand to assist players and answer questions about the newest update.
In addition, fans can look forward to kicking off the 2022 NASCAR season with a Free Play Weekend of NASCAR 21: Ignition, available on the Xbox platform from February 17 – 20, 2022. The game comes complete with a number of modes, such as Race Now, Online Multiplayer, and the brand new Paint Booth. NASCAR 21: Ignition contains all drivers, teams, and tracks from the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series season and is accessible for players of all skill levels.
The Daytona 500 weekend will also see Live Fast Motorsports kick off the second year of its partnership with Motorsport Games by racing with a NASCAR 21: Ignition and Xbox-themed scheme on its No. 78 Ford Mustang. This marks the first of seven select races this season that B.J. McLeod’s No. 78 car will feature a Motorsport Games-inspired livery. Additionally, McLeod will race with a custom-designed Motorsport Games helmet and the Live Fast Motorsports pit crew will wear Motorsport Games branded fire suits throughout the season.
NASCAR 21: Ignition, the officially licensed NASCAR gaming franchise is available via Steam for €49,99.
