Grid legends5/9/2023 They’ll occasionally trash talk their competition or even speak about the player character, but there’s nothing else there. While I enjoy the presentation and the cheesy dialogue, I really do wish they went further with the drama - I would have loved a more dynamic and over-the-top delivery throughout the whole thing.įor example, most of the cutscenes are just quick interviews and testimonials from the racers. Told via live-action cutscenes that are shot like a documentary, the story aims to provide drama and context for every race. Banking on a miracle to win the eponymous GRID World Series, the team sees this rookie as their ticket to glory. Taking inspiration from sports documentaries like Netflix’s Formula 1: Drive to Survive, players control Driver 22, an unseen and unnamed addition to the fictional Seneca Motorsport team. Legends is the fifth installment in this long-running series and it introduces one major new addition to the franchise - a story mode. Players are able to finely tune everything from the cars to the difficulty, and Grid Legends continues this trend of marrying two wildly different subgenres into one enjoyable racer. Hewing close to arcade racers like Need for Speed and Forza Horizon thanks to its smooth handling and easy braking system, it also manages to take a lot from simulations like Gran Turismo or Assetto Corsa. WTF Why release this the same day as Elden Ring and a week before Gran Turismo 7?Ĭodemasters’ Grid series has always been an interesting one in the racing genre. LOW It lacks content, and the story doesn’t go as far as I would hope. HIGH Accessible racing and an interesting story mode presentation.
