Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 31, 2023, Motorsport Games Inc.

Also, on March 31, 2023, the Company filed a prospectus supplement (the "Prospectus Supplement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in connection with an offering of Shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $2,919,403 from time to time through the Sales Agent under its existing shelf registration statement, which became effective on February 10, 2022 (File No. 333-262462) (the "Registration Statement"), and the base prospectus contained therein. A copy of the Prospectus Supplement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

Upon delivery of a placement notice, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Distribution Agreement, the Sales Agent may sell the Shares by methods deemed to be an "at the market offering" as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company may sell the Shares in amounts and at times to be determined by the Company from time to time subject to the terms and conditions of the Distribution Agreement, but it has no obligation to sell any of the Shares in the Offering.

The Company or the Sales Agent may suspend or terminate the Offering upon notice to the other party and subject to other conditions. The Sales Agent will act as sales agent on a commercially reasonable efforts basis consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal law, rules and regulations and the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC.

The Company has agreed to pay the Sales Agent commissions for its services in acting as sales agent in the sale of the Shares in the amount of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Shares pursuant to the Distribution Agreement. The Company has also agreed to provide the Sales Agent with customary indemnification and contribution rights.

The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Distribution Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties thereto and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

The Shares are registered pursuant to the Registration Statement and the base prospectus contained therein, and offerings for the Shares will be made only by means of a prospectus supplement. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Shares, nor shall there be any sale of the Shares in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities law of such state or jurisdiction.
