GAMES WE LOVE

Pedal, Meet Metal

Become racing royalty in the high-octane world of GRID Legends.

Got what it takes to be a racing superstar? Hop into GRID Legends’ driver’s seat as a gifted phenom for the upstart Seneca Racing team. Get behind the wheel of exotic supercars, speedy trucks, and everything in between as you tangle with the villainous Ravenwest Motorsport in a story told through live-action cinematics.

Whether you’re steering Formula One cars through the curves of Japan’s Suzuka Circuit or launching a classic Corvette down straightaways near the Eiffel Tower, the lifelike graphics keep your ride running smoothly. And as you’ll see when you turn too fast and slam into a tire wall, the cars handle like the real things too.

Racing through the heart of London at sunset is so breathtaking, you might forget to keep your eyes on the road!

What we love: The incredible variety! Skid through the documentary-style saga of Seneca Racing. Launch into a globe-trotting career mode that whisks you from Chicago to Shanghai. Slide through drift-racing courses on snowy mountain roads, or get crunchy in Classic Car-Nage’s demolition derby. You can even create your own custom racing events. Volkswagen Beetles vs. enormous trucks on foggy San Francisco streets? Rev it up!

Quick tip: Swerving into an opponent’s rear corner at high speed can send them spinning off the track, but watch out: Hitting a rival will make them your nemesis—and when they recover, they’ll come gunning for you!

Meet the creator: Based in the scenic English market town of Southam, Codemasters was founded by brothers Richard and David Darling. The pair began making games as kids in the late 1970s, building clones of popular titles like Galaxian. Their GRID series debuted in 2008, and its predecessor—TOCA Race Driver—roared onto the scene back in 1997.
