This update marks another milestone in our ongoing collaboration with NASCAR, as we continue to build new experiences, refresh existing worlds, and keep them alive for players long after launch.

The “Aussie Rules Obby” gives players a fun way to take on obstacle challenges, race against friends, and show their club colours with official AFL guernseys - turning passive spectators into active participants and rewarding fandom in new, interactive ways.

In recent weeks, Karta launched NASCAR – The Glen, a brand-new Rocket Racing map inside Fortnite inspired by the legendary Watkins Glen International track.

This isn’t just any racing map. We’ve scaled it up into a mega racing adventure — with oversized woodland trails, huge jumps, tricky campground obstacles, and floating track sections stretching across Seneca Lake.

Once again, we’re proud to team up with NASCAR to push the boundaries of how real-world brands connect with Fortnite’s passionate community. And this is only the beginning — more exciting projects are on the way.

A huge thank you to our partners and our brilliant team for making this bold new track a reality.

We’re hosting a panel in the Roblox booth at gamescom 2025 — diving into how we make brands playable on Roblox through fashion, creativity, and immersive worldbuilding.

From PLANET HUGO to My Eurovision Party, this session will spotlight how play is becoming the most powerful way for brands to connect with digital audiences.
