Community-driven racing.

Codemaster have announced the release of GRID Autosport, the next in the racing series and one that aims to move the game closer to the "core fanbase".
"While we were patching GRID 2 and releasing new content, we were busy gathering feedback," explain Codies in the announcement post. "We devoured the comment threads under articles about GRID 2 on gaming websites, took stock of our reviews, and of course, digested all the comments on our social channels and forums where we received direct feedback. It's this feedback that helped create GRID Autosport."
According to Codies the handling in Autosport is a return to a "more authentic handling style" without being "full simulation", although it approaches that end of the spectrum more than it does the arcade. There's also five racing disciplines such as Touring Cars, Endurance, Street Racing and more, and 22 locations with a combined list of over 100 routes. Cockpit view and dashboard view also make a return.
"TL:DR – Yes, we have an in-car view, two in fact," mutter Codies at the end of their announcement. TL:DR indeed.
GRID Autosport launches on June 27 on PC and current-gen consoles — not Xbox One or PS4 though, sorry.
Put the internet to work for you.
