Motorsport Games Reports Significant Milestones for Le Mans Ultimate and RaceControl Services

MIAMI, July 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Motorsport Games Inc. (NASDAQ: MSGM) (“Motorsport Games” or “the Company”) is today reporting on reaching key operational milestones for Le Mans Ultimate , the official game of the FIA World Endurance Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and RaceControl , the Company’s matchmaking and online racing system, which provides enhanced access to online features, including championships, extended registration periods, and priority driver reports.

June was a pivotal month for the FIA World Endurance Championship as the biggest motorsport endurance event of the year in real-life took place – the 24 Hours of Le Mans, from which Le Mans Ultimate draws its name and inspiration. Motorsport Games and Studio 397 B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Studio 397”), planned and executed significant activities, updates and promotion around this extraordinary event.

On June 10, Motorsport Games delivered a large update, bringing support for Teams and Driver Swaps along with Custom Liveries for RaceControl Pro subscribers – the Company’s online ecosystem platform that supports optional subscriptions for power-users, granting additional features. Following this, on June 13, the Company announced an official release date for the game to transition to “version 1.0” full release away from Early Access , adding two new cars free for all players (Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR LMH and Mercedes AMG LMGT3 Evo). Finally, Studio 397 confirmed the addition of the European Le Mans Series to the game as an expansion to the existing agreement with the Automobile Club de l’Ouest, the organizer of the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race.

The net result of June activity has resulted in new heights for the growing Le Mans Ultimate racing simulator title. Firstly, reaching an all-time peak concurrent player count– higher than the initial launch levels in February 2024 and over double that in the previous month. This latest title in the Company’s portfolio has also set a record for a Studio 397 product by generating revenues over the past eighteen months approximately eleven times faster than the prior racing title, rFactor 2 . Similarly, subscriptions to the RaceControl service, which provides additional support to all our titles including Le Mans Ultimate , grew by 148% in June 2025 compared to the prior month, breaking all monthly revenue records since the new service was deployed in December 2024.

“We continue to be encouraged by the positive reception of the game, as evidenced by the achievements during this significant month for the title” commented Stephen Hood, President and Chief Executive Officer of Motorsport Games.

Hood continued, “With the version 1.0 release set to follow shortly with new exciting content on July 22, alongside quality of life fixes, followed by new licensed content in the form of the European Le Mans Series, not to mention the much requested Career Mode confirmed to be in development and expected to be delivered in early 2026, we are delighted with the upward trajectory of both product and service performance.”
