Anything goes in the new racing game from Codemasters that faces trucks, single-seaters, classic cars and other types of vehicles in exciting duels with rivalries between drivers, and a story mode that wants to make us feel part of the competition. Whether on racing circuits or on the streets of big cities like London or Moscow, these are the main promises of GRID Legends.

If yours are the craziest racing games in which – practically – anything goes, chances are that GRID Legends will be at least a most interesting video game. It has that arcade essence that we like so much without losing sight of the realism so that running at full speed through large cities of the world is an incredible experience, but it also has a pinch of extra madness as it puts vehicles as diverse as single-seaters, racing trucks, sports cars, classic cars and other variants of the style. The result is what you see: a promising video game that wants to surprise not only on the track, but also off it with a story modewhich will feature live action scenes with actors playing the pilots we will face.

“GRID Legends combines everything our players love and adds more exciting racing features,” says one of its top managers. And the numbers are enough to be excited. More than 100 vehicles to choose from with the option to improve and customize them, in addition to more than 130 routes including real circuits, such as Indianapolis, or urban environments such as San Francisco, Paris, London or Moscow to name just a few. The latter excites us especially because there is nothing more fun than racing at full speed through the streets of iconic cities. “We’re giving players more variety and options, whether it’s creating their best races with our race creator. or recovering the Drift mode requested by the community “, add its authors, who take the chest out of a racing editor that promises to give us great freedom to configure the action to our liking.

There are other aspects to consider such as improved artificial intelligence that, at least on paper, sounds really good. Because the drivers will develop their own personality that will define their way of riding and behaving on the track with the rest of the competitors. Thus, rivalries between drivers can be very exciting. But of course, all this is for now promises since we only have a trailer and a few brushstrokes of what Codemasters is doing.

We will still have to wait for a good season to enjoy this new game in the GRID series as its launch has been set for 2022 .
