NASCAR 26 October Pack DLC is available now
The NASCAR 26 October Pack adds 94 paint schemes, more than 40 firesuits and special liveries across every series.
The October Pack for NASCAR 26 is available now, adding 94 paint schemes and more than 40 firesuits across the game's four national series. The pack includes designs used during Memorial Day and Independence Day race weekends, alongside special liveries for defending NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Larson and O'Reilly Auto Parts Series champion Jesse Love.1
The update is aimed at players who want more variety in the game's car customisation rather than a new racing mode. The new designs cover every series, so the content is spread across the NASCAR Cup Series, O'Reilly Auto Parts Series and the other series included in the game. The official pack listing provides the complete line-up of paint schemes for players who want to see exactly what is included.2
Players who own the NASCAR 26 Gold Edition or Season Pass receive the October Pack as part of those products. Owners of the standard edition can buy it separately for $9.99, according to the launch report.1 That makes the pack a relatively focused purchase: it expands visual customisation, but it is not presented as a new track, career chapter or major gameplay expansion.
The pack follows a recent update that addressed a multiplayer setting issue involving dynamic track conditions. The patch also added a marketing manager to Career mode for the O'Reilly Auto Parts and Cup Series campaigns, alongside a text correction in the ARCA series.1 Those changes are separate from the October Pack, but they give the release a little more context for returning players checking the game after a break.
What the October Pack includes
- 94 new paint schemes across all series.
- More than 40 firesuits.

Our opinion
This is a straightforward cosmetic drop, but it targets the part of a racing game that can make repeated events feel personal: the look of the car and driver. The useful detail is the breadth of the pack, with every series receiving multiple designs rather than the update being limited to a single headline vehicle. Players who already own the Gold Edition or Season Pass can treat it as a free addition to their existing content, while standard-edition owners will need to decide whether more liveries justify the separate price. The official listing is the best place to check the full line-up before spending anything.2
