Wednesday is set to be one of the most important days in the launch of iRacing’s second NASCAR console game, NASCAR 26, with the brand releasing the first gameplay trailer and opening pre-orders.
iRacing announced during the first episode of their NASCAR 26 Dev Diary video series that the first gameplay trailer for NASCAR 26 will drop on Wednesday.
Prior to this, there was little in the way of in-game footage and screenshots, with most of this limited to the announcement video for the new post-race burnout feature and some clips placed in the Dev Diary upload.
Early Wednesday, when pre-orders opened for NASCAR 26, fans got their first official in-game screenshots from the official listings on the XBOX, PlayStation, and Steam stores.
The official gameplay trailer dropped at noon Eastern and featured a whole host of features, some unexpected and many requested by fans, as well as a look at some of the game’s new venues. The story linked below breaks down key moments from the trailer.
