- A glimpse from the future! - 14 July 2020
Hello fellow racers! First of all we would like to thank you for all your support. In the past few months we saw an exponential growth in terms of playerbase and engagement. In the meantime we still continue to develop new ideas for the future of Xenon Racer brand, so keep following us with the same enthusiasm as the past weeks. Keep in mind: your feedback are fundamental to us and we'd love to see your ideas and your projects. Francesco Paolo Giancristofaro sent us his concept for a possible Brazilian Racing team. Silva is inspired by the snakes, the poison darts and the aboriginal body paints. The results is a fantastic venomous car that we absolutely love. Keep it up!
- One-year anniversary! - 26 March 2020
Time flies with Xenon Racer, its already one year since it was released worldwide on all platforms. We could not be happier with the user reviews with so many of them loving this return to classic arcade drift racing. The feedback from the Xenon communities has been superb and we really appreciate this including any criticism as it has allowed us to improve the game further in so many aspects. Since launch we have also added loads of new tracks, cars and liveries all for free to give our players new challenges racing in the future that we imagined. If you haven’t yet tried out Xenon Racer don’t miss out on some of the fastest racing you can find. Today, for our first anniversary, we therefore want to thank you by releasing the new video below celebrating this milestone with all of you! Race to the future!
