Another popular game will be going offline in 2026 and the details have been confirmed by the developer, including the big changes already taking shape. Real Racing 3 from EA Mobile is shutting down in March, 2026 and before that its listing on the Play Store and App Store along with in-app purchases have already been disabled.

Real Racing 3 has been around since 2013 which makes it popular for a wide range of mobile users, and this signals the end of the Real Racing era for millions. 

Real Racing 3 Shutting Down: What Now? 

While we don’t know the real reason for Real Racing 3 shutting down, it is possible the developer doesn’t see a lot of demand for games like these in 2026. Does this mean the Real Racing 4 will launch soon? There is no word from EA Mobile about a sequel which means this could be the end of the game altogether. 

Real Racing 3 Goes Offline In 2026 

The main game will be shutting down from March 19, 2026 which will make the game unplayable for all users. And before that, EA Mobile has delisted Real Racing 3 from the Play Store for Android and App Store for iPhone users.

This means that anybody looking to download the game now will not be able to install it from the official app stores, and they could probably do it via third-party app stores or sideload an APK file for the game.

The company has also stopped supporting in-app purchases and any pack that you might have bought within the game. Having said that, gamers can continue to use the in-game money until the March deadline. 

The developer has even rolled out a special update as a gesture who will get 1,000 gold, Audi S1 e-tron quattro car and even the 2023 model of the Rivac Nevera. And if you already had these cars in the Real Racing 3 garage, the developer will give you additional gold instead.
