Original Fire Games

Original Fire Games is an independent video game development studio based in Vancouver, Canada, focused on accessible, physics-driven racing games. Founded by three siblings from Mexico City, the studio combines experience in real-world motorsport with game development, stylized art and vehicle handling that blends arcade accessibility with simulation influences.

Its development history began with racing prototypes in 2014 under the working title Apex Racing League. The company incorporated in British Columbia in 2018 and publicly established the studio in 2019. Its capabilities span game design and prototyping, gameplay and systems programming, vehicle modeling, track design and multiplayer development for PC and consoles.

Racing games across platforms

The studio's debut title, Circuit Superstars, was announced at E3 2019 through Square Enix Collective. Its top-down racing format pairs stylized presentation with physics-driven handling. The game entered Steam Early Access in March 2021 before launching fully on PC and Xbox One in October that year. PlayStation 4 followed in January 2022, with Nintendo Switch arriving in June 2023.

Original Fire Games subsequently self-published Karting Superstars, which entered Steam Early Access in September 2023. Its third title, iRacing Arcade, grew from an exclusive development and publishing partnership announced with iRacing in July 2024. Built using the foundation of Circuit Superstars, the project introduced a third-person arcade racing approach with licensed vehicles and tracks alongside a management career mode. It launched on Steam in March 2026 and on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S in August 2026.

Across these projects, the studio has worked with external publishers and independently released its own games. Its portfolio reflects a sustained focus on motorsport, with different camera perspectives and racing formats supported by vehicle physics, track design and local or online multiplayer capabilities.
