Product Information

In an elimination event you race around a circuit and a timer counts down which when it expires eliminates the driver in last place then a few seconds later the timer will start again until only one driver remains.

GRID Legends finds itself in a bit of a tough spot. Launching a racing game in close proximity to any competition can be a bit dicey, but Codemaster’s latest entry in the GRID series is releasing just a mere week ahead of Polyphony’s much-anticipated Gran Turismo 7. Considering the near nine-year gap since the last properly numbered Gran Turismo game, hype levels are understandably sky high; can GRID Legends rise above the noise and prove its own worth? GRID Legends PS4 Review Adding a story to a racing game is akin to inviting Jacob Rees-Mogg to a birthday party. It’s entirely unnecessary, it creates a fetid atmosphere and it will really upset the children. So why Codemasters have returned to crowbarring a narrative into their technically impressive arcade racing simulations is either a vain attempt to attract non purists to the genre or perhaps the developers are trying to the stem the boredom of churning out another update by delving into low-rent drama. FMV and real ‘acting’ has been employed for this particular instalment and it doesn’t bode well for GRID Legends: The Movie, despite the eccentric casting of Tom Hanks as the ghost of Max Hastings. GRID Legends Review (PS4) Instantly beautiful, fast and playable, Grid Legends provides the perfect counterpoint to serious sim racing. It is very clearly similar to 2019’s Grid reboot, although there is immediately one thing that’s changed that makes this offering worth the upgrade. No, not the added story mode, it’s more fundamental than that; it’s the handling. It just didn’t feel quite right in the last game, whereas here it’s arguably the most playable handling system of any modern racer that doesn’t have ‘Kart’ in its title. Even though your car slides at every opportunity, it’s actually disguising the fact there’s a great deal of grip here, making for an enjoyable experience whatever your skill level.o Play with up to 21 friends in the most social and connected GRID ever, including cross-platform play. The list of steering wheels below includes every racing wheel that we think will be compatible with GRID Legends. Once Codemasters release an official list, we will update this article. If you're plugged into the racing game scene, you'll have noticed that Gran Turismo 7 is nearly upon us. If you're particularly aware, you might have spotted that it's that series' 25th anniversary year. What you perhaps haven't spotted is that there's another racing series that's celebrating its 25th anniversary with a new release a mere week before. I have included new wheel releases such as the Fanatec CSL DD, Fanatec GT DD Pro, Logitech G923 and Thrustmaster T248 which should all be compatible at launch. Just to re-iterate, these wheels have not yet been confirmed to be compatible by Codemasters. Purslow, Matt (24 July 2021). "Grid Legends Announced at EA Play Live 2021". IGN .

There is a huge caveat, and that is that Codemasters hasn’t confirmed that any wheel will be compatible. I would recommend reading our in-depth buyers guide for the best racing wheels for GRID Legends. This guide will run through the best racing wheels for a wide variety of budgets. From entry-level racing wheels through to more high-end wheels. Unlike Gran Turismo 7, which has clung to a successful formula and recognisable aesthetic for its full quarter century, Grid Legends is barely recognisable as a sequel to 1997's TOCA Touring Car Championship, the game at the root of its lineage. And while describing this as a TOCA game is a bit like claiming that the latest Mercedes Formula One challenger is actually a silver Tyrrell, fire up a race in its Classic Touring Car class behind the wheel of a yellow and blue Renault Laguna and the spirit lives on. Grid Legends reviewAgain, the location number of laps and number of opponents is entirely your choice so with all that done press to accept the event and choose your car and let the event load up. It'd be a serious stretch to describe the EA Sportsified Grid Legends as the FIFA of motorsport games, not least because it gives officially licensed championships a wide berth, but the game takes a similarly maximalist approach to racing. Its healthy selection of cars is cannily distributed across a multitude of classes and disciplines, ensuring there's almost always at least a couple of evenly matched but independently characterful vehicles to pit against each other. There's significant duplication from 2019's series reboot, but the few additions are at least wilder and more specialised than that game's slightly more conservative platter. Whilst we will do everything we can to meet the delivery times above, there may be factors outside of our control and we cannot guarantee delivery within this time frame. Holt, Kris (22 July 2021).

Aside from the Story Mode, you’ve got Career Mode making its return, featuring a boatload of different events to take part in, with races similar to those seen in Story Mode. It’s here, however, that you’ll find the most variety in the game, and it's likely the mode that car enthusiasts will spend the most time with. In addition, the game lets you set up custom races with a reasonable degree of accessibility; full cross-play is available with GRID Legends, so if you’re up for some online play, the player population should be pretty healthy for a good while. This will tell you any mileage you have done in that specific car so if this says zero then you know it’s a car you haven’t done an event in yet. GRID Legends looks to fall into the sim-cade style of racing game, combining sim racing elements with slightly more accessible arcade-like physics.
