NASCAR Enters the Roblox World With an Immersive Gaming Experience
The NASCAR Speed Hub is an immersive metaverse-like platform based on Roblox. Backed by the iconic racing company, players can customize automobiles, access premium virtual goods, engage in minigames, and link to other Roblox games.
“This is the next step in expanding NASCAR's presence in the metaverse,” says Nick Rend, NASCAR managing director of gaming and esports. “At NASCAR we want to encourage the emerging generation of digital natives to manifest their passion for NASCAR racing their own way."
Players can experience the 'Quest for Diamonds,' mini game, which sees players collect anniversary diamonds through partner games like Jailbreak. Additionally, players are invited to modify their vehicles and gather cash in the NASCAR-themed Roblox experience. As part of the debut, Jailbreak players who successfully complete a time trial in NASCAR Speed Hub will receive a limited-edition skin with a 75th-anniversary theme.
