704Games was formed as Dusenberry Martin Racing in January 2015, a subsidiary of HC2 Holdings; HC2 Holdings acquired the license to develop NASCAR video games from Eutechnyx on January 1, 2015. As a result of the acquisition, DMR received NASCAR '15, a video game that Eutechnyx had been developing. On April 13, 2015, Dusenberry Martin Racing secured $8,000,000 in equity capital.

NASCAR '15 was published and released by DMR on May 22, 2015. The company was also beginning the development of its first video game, NASCAR Heat Evolution while collaborating with Monster Games. The game was officially announced on May 20, 2016, and was released on September 13, 2016. In 2017, NASCAR Heat Mobile was released as a soft launch exclusive to Canada on March 8 and was released in the US on April 24. On March 21, an unnamed sequel to NASCAR Heat Evolution was announced, which was later revealed to be named NASCAR Heat 2 and was released September 12. On July 7, 2018, NASCAR Heat 3 was announced with a release date of September 7, 2018.

In 2017, DMR rebranded to 704Games (taken from Charlotte's area code (704)) and hired former NASCAR Media Group President, NASCAR Senior Vice President, and DMR chairman Paul Brooks as CEO.

In August 2018, it was announced Motorsport Network invested in 704Games. It was later revealed in March 2019 and later, in 2021, Motorsport Network made a majority investment in 704Games. Additionally, Colin Smith, former CEO of Motorsport Network, replaced Ed Martin as President of 704Games while Martin will direct 704Games’ esports initiatives. Paul Brooks will move into a non-executive chairman role. Finally, as part of the Motorsport Network deal (which had now created and spun-off its games division to be called 'Motorsport Games'), NASCAR extended its video game and esports license with 704Games through 2029. Subsequent NASCAR games published by the company listed Motorsport Games as the developer following its complete takeover.Шаблон:Citation needed
