Official NHRA Drag Racing Mobile Game Set to Launch in 2026

NHRA has partnered with GameMill Entertainment and Concrete Software on an official mobile game, targeting a global iOS and Android release in summer 2026.

The project prioritizes authenticity, drawing on NHRA’s 75-year heritage to capture staging, reaction timing, and the rhythm of a quarter-mile run on mobile hardware.

Concrete Software CEO Keith Pichelman says the collaboration aims to deliver a faithful experience for dedicated fans while remaining approachable for newcomers.

Content includes Top Fuel dragsters and Funny Cars, alongside current NHRA stars and historically significant machinery taken from the sport’s archives.

Progression hinges on crew building and car tuning, encouraging trade-offs between launch performance, durability, and consistency across varied track conditions.

Race execution emphasizes skill. Authentic staging and manual shifting reward precise timing, elevating driver input over simple upgrade-driven progression.

GameMill’s publishing reach supports broad distribution, while NHRA oversight safeguards licensing accuracy for teams, liveries, venues, and historical references.

Planned community features spotlight drivers, memorable cars, and personal stories, extending engagement beyond short sessions and encouraging long-term play.

NHRA president Glen Cromwell frames the game within the 75th anniversary celebrations, using mobile access to reach new audiences without compromising identity.

Fans can register for development updates and potential early access through the NHRA Drag Racing newsletter ahead of the planned 2026 release.
