Speed Rivals has officially reached version 1.0

Today marks an important milestone for Speed Rivals.

After launching in Early Access on November 20, Speed Rivals is now officially leaving Early Access and reaching its full 1.0 release.

These past months have been a key part of the project. Early Access allowed us to improve the game with real feedback from players, refine important systems, expand the Track Builder, adjust the driving experience, and better understand what the community wanted Speed Rivals to become.

Thank you for shaping Speed Rivals with us

We want to sincerely thank everyone who has been part of this Early Access period.

To everyone who played the game, shared feedback, reported issues, suggested improvements, created tracks, tested updates, joined the community, or simply supported the project: thank you.

A lot of the improvements added during these months came directly from community feedback. Your comments helped us decide what to prioritize, what needed more clarity, what systems had to be improved, and what kind of content made the game more enjoyable.

Speed Rivals is a better game today because of that feedback.

From Early Access to full release

Early Access was never just a label for us. It was a real development stage.

Since November 20, we have worked on improving the foundation of the game: the racing experience, the editor, the circuit creation tools, the visual variety, the community features, and the overall feeling of building and racing on custom slot racing tracks.

Reaching version 1.0 means we now consider Speed Rivals ready to enter its next stage.

It is a more complete, more polished and more content-rich version of the game, built with the help of the players who joined us along the way.

This is not the end

Version 1.0 is not the end of Speed Rivals.

We will continue adding new cars, new miniatures, new decorations, new circuits and new content regularly.

Speed Rivals was created around racing, collecting, building and sharing. That vision continues beyond 1.0, and we are excited to keep expanding the game with future updates.

Thank you

Leaving Early Access is a very special moment for us.

Thank you for being part of this journey from the first public version to today’s 1.0 release.

We hope you enjoy this new stage of Speed Rivals.

See you on the track.
