- Race Condition 1.1.3 Update - 22 July 2022
Fixed a bug which caused the authentication with Steam and leaderboard servers to fail for users with Steam display names longer than 25 characters.
- Race Condition 1.1.2 Update - 16 June 2022
Maintenance release with bugfixes. Special thanks to user Gamerun for the help!
- Race Condition 1.1.1 Update - 24 May 2022
This update modifies the fuel consumption algorithm in such a way that regardless of the race length, 3-4 pit stops will be sufficient for completing a race. The motivation behind this change is the new Quick Race configuration which lets you set up much longer races than in the past. In such a race, of say 30 laps, you would have to pit around 10 times which is a bit excessive. This update addresses that problem by recalculating the fuel consumption so that 3-4 pit stops is all that's needed. This change only applies to the Quick Race game mode.
- Version 1.1 Just Released With Configurable Races - 23 May 2022
Hi guys! We've just released version 1.1 of Race Condition. This release includes the much-requested possibility to customize quick races. You can now specify length of the race, number of participating drivers, and the overall difficulty. Use these settings to fine-tune the challenge as you play against the AI cars, or together with friends in split screen mode. Also, we're happy to announce that we're participating in Steam Racing Fest which takes place May 23 - May 30. During this period, you'll be able to grab Race Condition at 30% discount! If you've previously been on the fence, this is the perfect opportunity to get your hands on the full game:
- Race Condition 1.0.6 Update - 15 March 2022
This update fixes a bug which has resulted in some players not getting the "Completionist" achievement despite having placed first in every track. If you have been affected by this, follow these steps to get the achievement retroactively: Update to version 1.0.6 or higher. Finish one race in world tour mode. It doesn't matter which track or what place you end up in. After the race, during the points summary, the achievement will be awarded to to you. Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any questions or if this doesn't work for you.

Achievements Fixed a bug which made it impossible to get 3rd place or 2nd place achievement on a track if having previously placed 1st.

- Race Condition - One of Top Eight Best Demos of Steam Next Fest - 3 March 2022
The February 2022 edition of Steam Next Fest has come to an end and, as many of you know, Race Condition was part of the festival with a playable demo, as well as a live stream where Marcus did a playthrough of the first 40 minutes of the game. At the same time, gaming website PCInvasion took a deep dive into everything the festival had to offer in an attempt to find their absolute favorites. Eventually, after searching through and reviewing many of the over 600 demos available, only eight games remained - and we are happy to see that Race Condition secured a spot on this exclusive list. Race Condition is described as timelessly beautiful with solid mechanics and the game audio is considered a special highlight. Thanks a lot PCInvasion! :-) --> Click here to read the full story

- Changed default graphics API to DirectX 11 to prevent crashes on certain hardware configurations. - Fixed an issue which would cause the track selection screen to not work properly after finishing the World Tour.
- Race Condition Out Now - 1 March 2022
After two years of development, we are incredibly happy to finally have reached this important milestone. Race Condition is launching today and you’ll finally be able to get your hands on the full game. In Race Condition you begin your career as a rookie in a highly competitive open-wheel racing league. A rivalry with the suspiciously good opponent Mr. Dickmann makes things extra challenging, as you tour the world over a series of intense races, with their fair share of crashes, pit-stops and strategic decisions. The game also features time trial racing, quick race and split-screen multiplayer, as well as online leaderboards, different car setups, steam achievements, a great retro soundtrack and more. If you haven’t already, try the free demo to get a feel for how it plays. And when you’re ready to take on the full challenge, you can get Race Condition here!

- Release Pushed to March 2022 - 12 November 2021
Hi guys, We’re sorry to have to say this, but we have made the decision to delay the release of the game to March 2022.

Pitstops A much-requested feature which we're happy to now have in the game! You'll have to consider fuel consumption from now on.

- Dev Update - Pitstops, Online Leaderboards and more! - 20 August 2021
Hi guys! We're making lots of progress on the game and in this post we'll highlight a number of features and recent additions which we are especially excited about. Pitstops This has been one of the most requested features, and we're happy to let you know that pitstops will be an integrated part of the racing experience. We've equipped the cars with fuel tanks, which means that, on longer races, cars will need to pit mid-race for refueling. This creates a new dimension to the gameplay and lets you experiment with different pitstop strategies in order to optimize your race performance. We're really happy with the way this feature turned out, and how it makes the races feel even more dynamic, and fun! Online Leaderboards Another much requested feature is online leaderboards. This is now part of the game and you will be able to compare your results against other drivers around the world. O…
