What Classic Car-Nage Entails
The new game mode is a special series of racing events that reintroduces characters from the ‘Driven to Glory’ story mode and delivers a no holds barred experience that pushes the GRID rule book to its limit.The first episode focuses on Valentin Manzi, portrayed by award-winning British actor Ncuti Gatwa, as he and the rest of the field wreak havoc through eight Classic Car-Nage story events.
Players also gain access to five new vehicles, including an ice-cream truck, and four new routes across two locations, the Yokahama Docks and the intense heat of Havana. Three new sponsored Career Events will also be available with this expansion.
A New Take on Demolition Derby
“Classic Car-Nage brings the cathartic and fascinating destructive experience of demolition derby into the GRID Legends universe,” said Steven Brand, Associate Creative Director at Codemasters. “New routes with multiple crossovers and ramps ensure plenty of opportunities for pile-ups, and story mode objectives allow players to work on personal strategies to survive the events. I’m looking forward to joining folks online to cause some mayhem!”Classic Car-Nage’s online multiplayer interaction invites players to cause even more mayhem on track by challenging their friends, who can play the pack’s content for free, as long as they own the GRID Legends base game.
