Image Space Incorporated needs your help getting rFactor released on the Steam Platform. The title is now listed on Steam’s Greenlight service. Steam Greenlight is a system that enlists the community’s help in picking new products to be released on Steam. This is the first step towards publishing rFactor via Steam and introducing the rfactor 1 simulation to a wider audience.

Make sure you put in your vote by rating it up using the Yes button. Bringing rFactor to the Steam platform may result in a bigger rFactor racing community, with more online players and more content. Furthermore, it could result in a better and very needed auto update feature.
