GRID Legends

GRID Legends is a racing game from Codemasters that combines several motorsport disciplines in a mix of accessible controls and driving challenge. Rather than depicting a single championship, it combines street races, circuit races, drifts, elimination races and races with different vehicle classes. A staged story, the extensive career and the freely configurable Race Creator offer three different ways into motorsport.

The original title came out in 2022 for PC, PlayStation and Xbox. Feral Interactive later brought adapted versions to other systems, including macOS, iOS, Android and Nintendo Switch 2.

Electronic Arts and Codemasters released GRID Legends in late February 2022 for PC, PlayStation 4 and 5, and Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. Steam lists the PC launch as Feb 24, while EA announced the global release for Feb 25. Later ports are separate native releases.

A standalone VR version followed on Meta Quest in January 2023. Feral Interactive released its Deluxe Edition for macOS on Dec 12, 2023 and for iOS and Android on Dec 17, 2024. The Nintendo Switch 2 version came out on Jan 29, 2026 and bundles the additional content.

The original versions were released natively for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. There is also a separate Meta Quest version. Feral Interactive handles ports for macOS and mobile devices as well as Nintendo Switch 2. The latter is explicitly a Switch 2 version and not a Switch 1 version.

Content varies: on PC and the original consoles you get the base game with separately sold expansions or the Deluxe upgrade. On macOS, iOS, Android and Switch 2, Feral offers the Deluxe Edition including the DLC packs. Cross-platform races from the original online mode must not be automatically assumed for all later ports.

GRID Legends combines touring cars, GT cars, open-wheel cars and other classes in fast race events. The Race Creator lets you combine different vehicle types in one starting grid and adjust track conditions with weather, time of day and additional track elements. Racers react dynamically during the race and create constantly shifting battles for position.

Four larger packs permanently expand GRID Legends: Valentin’s Classic Car-Nage adds a Demolition Derby-inspired race mode, Enduring Spirit new endurance races at Fuji Speedway, Rise of Ravenwest a look back at the rival team and Winter Bash more race events. Smaller content such as Mechanic Pass and Seneca & Ravenwest Double Pack is listed separately.

Anyone who owns the original standard edition can buy packs individually or via the Deluxe upgrade. The Deluxe editions published by Feral Interactive for Mac, mobile devices and Switch 2 include the additional content.

For the Windows version, EA lists Windows 10 or 11 (64 Bit), at least an Intel Core i3-2130 or AMD FX4300, 8 GB RAM, and a GeForce GTX 950 or Radeon RX 460. Recommended are Intel Core i5-8600K or Ryzen 5 2600X, 16 GB RAM, and GeForce GTX 1080 or Radeon RX590. For both tiers, 50 GB storage, DirectX 12 and broadband internet are listed.

These specs do not apply across the board to macOS, mobile devices, VR or Nintendo Switch 2. Later ports have their own technical requirements.

Apart from the scripted story, GRID Legends offers a standalone career with more than 250 events at launch. The events are spread across several motorsport types and vehicle classes. The game links career progress with free races and online events, without limiting the vehicle collection to a single class.

At launch, GRID Legends offered more than 130 track variants, including real circuits such as Brands Hatch and Indianapolis, and city circuits in London and Dubai. Different track types are combined with a wide vehicle selection. Later expansions add more track variants and events.

The launch version came with over 100 vehicles, including touring cars, classic race cars, open-wheelers, electric and hybrid vehicles, and heavy race trucks. Different vehicle classes make separate racing disciplines possible. Mixed starting grids can be assembled with the Race Creator.

The native Switch 2 version was released on Jan 29, 2026, ported and published by Feral Interactive. It includes the base game with its additional content and supports TV, tabletop and handheld mode. As technical options, Feral lists several modes for image quality, speed, balance and longer battery life. Nintendo runs the game with one user per system.

The story campaign follows a new driver in the GRID World Series. Races are linked with filmed scenes and interviews with real actors. Team Ravenwest appears as a major rival. Unlike a pure sequence of free races, the campaign focuses on a connected motorsport storyline.

Feral Interactive released GRID Legends: Deluxe Edition natively for macOS on Dec 12, 2023. This standalone version is sold through the Mac App Store and includes the expansions of the original racing game. It is not a Windows game that is merely launched through a compatibility layer.

On the original PC and PlayStation/Xbox versions, races with other players across platforms are possible. The Hop-in feature makes it easier to join ongoing events. The Steam store lists a required EA account and an online connection. The exact feature set of other ports should be checked separately.

According to Steam, the PC version supports eleven languages. German is listed for the interface, voice audio and subtitles; other languages sometimes only have translated text. The exact language list of later ports may differ and should be checked in the respective store.

Steam lists an adjustable difficulty level, separate volume sliders, stereo and surround sound, and a keyboard control option for the PC version. According to the store, the game can be played without quick-time events. On mobile devices, Feral adds touch and tilt controls as well as controller support.

GRID Legends: Deluxe Edition was released on iOS and Android on Dec 17, 2024. Feral Interactive handled the port and included the expansions.
