Next Car Game earns $1 million from Steam Early Access

4.6
Next Car Game has earned over $1 million on Steam since its pre-alpha version arrived on Early Access this month for $29.99. The sales mark came from one week of activity on Steam and the game's pre-order site.

The racing game comes from FlatOut series and Ridge Racer: Unbounded developer Bugbear Entertainment, which canceled its Kickstarter funding campaign for the game in November 2013. The developer was initially looking to raise $350,000 on the crowdfunding platform, of which it reached $81,772.

Heir I haven't ever seen racing games on PC, always thought it was a Console thing.


To be fairly honest when it comes to racing games PC is generally better. Not with keyboard and mouse though, you'll probably need a racing wheel or controller.

and a few other honorable mentions like BeamNG and Next Car Game.


beamNG isn't a racing game, atleast not yet. Although it is an amazing soft body physics car game. Better then Next Car Game in terms of physics.

Racing games do a lot better than you may think! Next-gen will be doing really good in this genre.
