Le Mans Ultimate exits early access with new cars on July 22

MIAMI - Motorsport Games Inc. (NASDAQ:MSGM), whose stock has surged 140% over the past six months according to InvestingPro data, announced Friday that its racing simulation Le Mans Ultimate will exit early access and launch version 1.0 on July 22, 2025.

The full release will introduce two new vehicles at no additional cost: the Mercedes AMG LMGT3 Evo, marking Mercedes’ return to Le Mans competition since 1999, and the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR LMH, featuring a 6.5L naturally aspirated V12 engine. All official 2025 FIA World Endurance Championship team liveries will also be included free of charge.

Since entering early access in February 2024, the game has received five major updates, including the complete 2023 and 2024 WEC season content, RaceControl-powered online events, cooperative mode, broadcast overlays, hosted servers, driver swaps, team management, and custom liveries. Despite reporting negative EBITDA of $4.13 million in the last twelve months, analysts expect the company’s revenue to grow by 66% this fiscal year.

"This game has always been a labor of love for Studio 397," said Stephen Hood, CEO of Motorsport Games. "The 1.0 release is not the end of development—it’s the start of something even bigger."

The company also revealed plans for a single-player career mode targeted for Q1 2026 and teased the addition of the European Le Mans Series featuring three new circuits: Silverstone, Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, and Paul Ricard, along with the LMP3 category of race cars.

The announcement comes as Motorsport Games continues development of its racing simulation portfolio, which includes the officially licensed video game for the 24 Hours of Le Mans and FIA World Endurance Championship, according to the company’s press release statement. InvestingPro analysis reveals the company maintains a FAIR financial health score, with 12 additional key insights available to subscribers through their comprehensive Pro Research Report.

In other recent news, Motorsport Games reported a notable turnaround in its financial performance for the first quarter of 2025. The company achieved a net income of $1 million, reversing a loss of $1.7 million from the previous year. However, revenue decreased by 41.9% year-over-year to $1.8 million, primarily due to a reduction in NASCAR-related revenues. Despite the decline in revenue, the Le Mans Ultimate game contributed an additional $400,000 in sales. Motorsport Games is also exploring various funding options to address liquidity challenges, having secured a $2.5 million investment from Pimax. The investment has already had a positive impact on the company’s cash position, which increased to $3.1 million by the end of April 2025. Additionally, the company is considering expanding its game portfolio and exploring new opportunities, including bringing Le Mans Ultimate to gaming consoles. These developments reflect Motorsport Games’ strategic focus on financial recovery and market expansion.
