First I wanna thank the team of IRacing for sending me the code for Nascar 25 it is greatly appreciated and I hope to work with you guys again.
So Nascar 25 is my first Nascar game ive played other racers like need for speed and forza even grand turismo back in the day but never had the opportunity to play Nascar until now.
I wasnt sure what to expect as I dont know many pros from the scene other then Dale JR so I went into this game with no expectations other then to have fun. Now when you first reach the menu there’s a few modes at the top you have career which launches your own rise in the sports I have a bit of time here and loved every second of it making my own racer and competing for a chance at greater things its the one thing I love about racing games when you can make your own career now your basically your own franchise making money from sponsors and races but also paying the bills and keeping your car going you gotta buy new bodies and chassis as well as engines and everything in between you get different level of equipment so you know there’s better parts as you progress.
Then there’s quick race which is pretty self explanatory you que up for a race and take off around the track hoping to hit number 1 on the podium.
Then there’s multiplayer or online racing where the glory of the world is waiting to put you in your place as you compete against real world players in tough demanding races battling it out for top position. Now these are mostly lobbies created by other racers would be cool to see some official lobbies from the devs so players dont set damages or tire wear to insane amounts. But this is the mode where everyone will be so this will have the most fun.
At the bottom there’s a drivers rating tab which shows you the ratings of every driver in the sport and which series there from the game offers a lot of information and its surprising I didnt expect so much when I started playing I definitely cant wait to see what’s coming to Nascar 25.
I played on a controller and it felt great no stutters during turns everything was very responsive I will be setting up my wheel and pedals to give it a proper go like a true Sim racer lol.
My time in the online races was fun but I barely found races since they all had late in the day start times and not many players I hope this is worked with so we can have more racing and less waiting around.
My time with Nascar 25 has been great from the smooth feel of the cars to the fun in career mode to the intense feel of racing your fellow gamers every second of it was great I give this game an 8/10 I cant wait to see what iracing has in store for this game thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.
