Previously announced with an acquired license announcement and teaser, GameMill Entertainment have today officially announced NHRA: Speed for All will be released August 26, 2022.

I have picked the main details out of the press release for you (below). This doesn’t say an awful lot about physics at this point other than saying they are aware of them, but let’s hope for the best. Check out the trailer below that, which quite likely does include some pre-rendered scenes but also definitely includes in-engine visuals as well.

Screenshots:

– Release expected on PS5/4, XBOX X/S/1, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam.
– Pre-ordering available according to the press release, but I don’t see it on Steam for wishlisting yet and the Web site says “soon” for everything else. Priced at $49.99.
– 5 NHRA Vehicle Classes: Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock, Pro Mod and Super Modified.
– 38 Licensed drivers.
– Licensed tracks like Bristol Dragway, The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, zMax Dragway in Charlotte, Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park, Auto Club Raceway at Pomona and more.
– Career modes and sponsorship tiers.
– Online leaderboards.
– Split screen multiplayer on consoles.
– Deluxe, Ultimate versions being sold, and DLC packs expected with items (see below).
– Deluxe includes the game and John Force pack.
– Ultimate includes the game and John Force pack, along with The Battle Ready Pack, The Moonshot Pack, The Electo Blitz Pack and The Nitro Fire Pack.
