Game Stock Car Extreme V1.25 Out on Steam

Reiza Studios has killed two birds with one stone today by not only releasing Game Stock Car Extreme on Steam but also releasing V1.25 of the title.

First, lets start with Steam.  As with Reiza’s other title Formula Trucks 2013, Game Stock Car can now be purchased on Steam and current owners can get Steam keys here (only for purchases between the titles launch and February 9, 2015).  Unlike Formula Trucks 2013, new updates will still be available on the traditional non-Steam game so you do not have to use Steam if you don’t want to.  If you use mods then you may not want to jump to Steam since they are currently unsupported.

Now lets talk about V1.25.  This is quit the update.  Content wise there are two new vehicles, two new tracks and one updated track.  The Metalmoro MR18 Prototype is your newest track day whip while the GX390 rental kart will keep you entertained on family go-kart outings (check out videos of both below).  Speaking of tracks, the awesome Johannesburg Historic Formula 1 track is now available along with the Ortona karting track (in 4 configurations).  The Goiânia track has also been updated to post-2014 reform.

Outside of content, V1.25 packs extensive audio revisions, improved tire physics, adjusted terrain properties and some texture updates here and there.  A few known bugs are present but will be corrected with future updates in the near future.  The entire changelog can be read below.

The best “little sim that could” continues to get even better.  If you’re a fan of Game Stock Car and a Steam member, head over to their page and leave a nice review for them.

Bug in the scoring in championship mode for all series;
