Playsport Games announced they've got the rights to Motorsport Manager back from SEGA, and they're already working on updates to the game. Originally released back in 2016, it's quite highly rated by a number of critics and has a Very Positive rating on Steam from over 11,000 reviews too.

Writing in an announcement on Steam the developer posted:

Good news, we've got the rights to Motorsport Manager back from Sega!

So the first thing we wanted to fix is that black screen on booting the game.

For this patch we’ve had to change the version of Unity we are using, to 5.5.6f1, and we are aware this could potentially break some mods. As such we’re initially releasing the patch as a beta to allow time for mods to support it.

This initial release is Windows only, Mac and Linux versions will follow shortly.

If you find any issues with this new patch please let us know.

Updates:

  • Fixed black screen on boot
  • Fixed incorrect driver positions on minimap
  • UI fixes in various menus
  • Updated legal text & privacy policy

Nice to see a break between developer and publisher that appears to have gone well, not something that happens too often especially on older games like this.

Release Date: 9th November 2016

Another game (sorta) saved from big bad companies by its developers. What a great time we live in currently, in terms of games 🥰
