Steam is selling the game for Windows PC.[2]

    History

    On January 1, 2015, HC2 Holdings, Inc. subsidiary Dusenberry Martin Racing (DMR) acquired the NASCAR video game licence as well as "certain NASCAR-related assets" from Eutechnyx.[1][3] Dusenberry Martin Racing announced that a 2015 update to NASCAR '14 would be released in May for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows PC, which had already been in development by Eutechnyx. Because it is an update, many features from previous NASCAR The Game installments are present. A 2016 version is in development by Dusenberry Martin Racing for the eighth generation consoles.[1][2][4]

    To promote the game, DMR signed several NASCAR drivers as "Game Ambassadors," including Erik Jones (as part of a promotion with GameStop), Joey Logano, Ryan Blaney, Darrell Wallace, Jr., and Matt Tifft.[2][5] In September 2015, DMR announced an updated version of the game called NASCAR '15: Victory Edition, which will included all paint schemes and DLC and all patches, for release in October. It will be released at no additional cost for those who purchased the original version of the game.[5][6][7]

    Cover

    The 2015 cover features four-time Sprint Cup Series champion Jeff Gordon, who is in his 23rd and final year running a full-time Sprint Cup schedule. He replaces Tony Stewart from the 2014 cover.[8] The "Victory Edition" features 2015 Daytona 500 winner Joey Logano on the cover.[5][7]

    Downloadable content

    In addition to several patches to fix issues within the game,[9] three DLC packs were announced in May to add more paint schemes to the game.[4] The DLCs were intended to be released worldwide on the week of July 13, 2015. However, the release was delayed until mid to late-August.
