NASCAR fans will be disappointed to hear that EA Sports head honcho, Peter Moore, has recently let us know that the studio currently has no plans to develop a new NASCAR game. In fact, he has said that those who worked on previous NASCAR projects have been reassigned to different projects.

Below is a direct quote from Mr. Moore:

Unfortunately … we had to make some tough trade-offs. We’ve had to redeploy some of those folks. A number of the NASCAR team has moved over now to EA Sports MMA, which will be shipping next year. [We're] still a huge fan of NASCAR, but no plans right now to develop any further games for NASCAR from EA Sports.

Now make note that this doesn’t mean there will never be a new NASCAR game, just not one in the direct future.
