NASCAR The Game: Inside Line is planned to launch Fall 2012 for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and the Wii system from Nintendo.

“We set out to reinvent NASCAR gaming last year with NASCAR The Game 2011 ? and we’re very proud of it. With our continued enhancements to that game, and our very passionate fans helping guide us, we have an amazing platform to go to the next level with NASCAR The Game: Inside Line,” said Dave Thompson, Executive Producer at Eutechnyx. “We’ve added a new in-depth career mode and robust online features that include realistic race weekends, and now aspiring drivers can rise up through the ranks, attract sponsors, and upgrade their car’s components in the quest to be the Sprint Cup Series Champion.”

Blake Davidson, Vice President of Licensing & Consumer Products at NASCAR and board member of NASCAR Team Properties, said, “The way Eutechnyx has integrated themselves into the sport has been amazing.
