Le Mans Ultimate is on an upward trajectory, and Motorsport Games has followed suit with exciting news for fans: The company has found an investor who will help keep the company afloat with an eye-watering investment of $2.5M.
Ever since the first content update featuring LMGT3 cars arrived for Le Mans Ultimate in December, the sim has been on a notable upward trend. Average concurrent player numbers have cracked the 1,000 mark for the first time since its February 2024 early access release in March of 2025, and our Racing Club is frequently enjoying full grids in its weekly events.
It appears that this has not gone unnoticed: Motorsport Games, the parent company that also owns the sim's developer Studio 397, has been looking for an investor or buyer since last year as it tried to recover from past decisions that saw the company struggle financially. That worry seems to be out the window for now, as an unnamed investor has contractually invested in Motorsport Games to the tune of $2.5M.

Motorsport Games has re-filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The details are slim, but what is clear is that a $2.5 million investment for 1,894 million shares of Motorsport Games’ Class A common stock will be coming to the market.
