NASCAR 25 Review

NASCAR 25 reviewed by Luke Reilly on Xbox Series X. Also available on Xbox Series S and PlayStation 5. PC version is coming in November 2025.

NASCAR 25 is the perfect use of iRacing’s extensive catalogue of stock car racing tracks and cars, only targeted at people who aren’t particularly interested in joining the online crucible and competing often enough to make their subscription worthwhile. As a series, it has some distance to go before it can match the breadth of other licensed racing games bringing real-world motorsport to your couch or sim rig – like F1 – but as a debut, it impresses in several key areas. If you’re after a deep multiplayer experience you may want to circle back to iRacing, but if you want some quality, single-player stock car racing against extremely solid AI, NASCAR 25 delivers.
