GRID will take players to beautifully realised and dramatic race locations
over three continents to compete in an unprecedented variety of racing events.
Packed with the most powerful race cars – new and classic, circuit and drift –
players will compete to conquer the most prestigious official race tracks and
championships and then go beyond to compete in challenging city-based
competitions, through to road events and urban street races.
In Europe, race gamers will compete on the greatest official tracks in
prestige Marques including Aston Martin, Koenigsegg and Pagani. Iconic cities
across the U.S. – including San Francisco, Washington DC and Detroit and each
with their own atmosphere and events – play hosts to diverse street races. Here,
high-performance V8 muscle cars set the pace in aggressive closely fought pack
competitions.
In the Far East, Japanese racing culture sets the tone where night races,
including Drift racing, take drivers through neon illuminated cities and to
outlying mountain roads. There is also the opportunity to compete in races that
operate on the fringes of legality in the back streets and industrial areas of
Yokohama.
