- iRacing’s recent dev blog outlines future career mode - Season 4 2026 build will include Caterham 420R, Caterham Academy and Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR-LMH Hypercar iRacing’s Senior Vice President and Executive Producer, Greg Hill, proffered a whole bunch of new details on the game’s work-in-progress career mode during his latest dev blog. Career mode will be a single-player experience for the subscription-based sim, starting players on the bottom rung of the motorsport ladder. The goal is to progress through the ranks, facing stiffer competition, longer races, and more championships to reach the pinnacle of a player’s chosen discipline. The key facet of all this is that iRacing’s entire pool of track and car content will be available in the career mode, whether players ‘own’ the content or not. Hill said Career Mode will come with ‘zero extra cost’ and be included in a standard iRacing subscription, with no additional track or car purchases required. So, as you progress through your career, cars and tracks become available and unlock, but then become unavailable again once the relevant race or season has been completed in career mode. Therefore, the unlocked cars and tracks you don’t own will not transfer to the overall iRacing ecosystem. This has long been a bone of contention among career mode sceptics, which has thankfully now been put to rest. Discussion There is definatly alot of potential here. It will be quite interesting to see how it ends up.
