Codemasters Announces Grid 2

After some teasing late last week, Codemasters has officially announce that Grid 2 will be coming out on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC sometime in 2013.

The new trailer showcases two of the game's brand-new locations, Paris and Chicago. The game promises to "raise the gameplay and technological bar for motorsport gaming and remain true to the series’ core value – it’s all about the race".

The game promises an "expansive career mode" in which players will experience Codemaster's new TrueFeel Handling System, and though the system is based on real physics, it aims to hit the "sweetspot between accessiblity and simulation and deliver handling that is approachable yet challenging to master."

Executive Producer Clive Moody says, “Grid’s back and we’re going to make street, track and road racing exciting again. The core design philosophy for Grid 2 is that we treat the race as a character, not a consequence of simply putting cars on tracks. Everything that goes into the game impacts on that second-to-second, in the moment, blockbuster drama – the feel and personality of the race.

“We’re pushing boundaries once again with what can be accomplished in the genre via new tools, technology and innovations. In single-player, split-screen and online, the next-generation of the EGO Game Technology Platform will power graphics, AI, handling and damage advancements that will immerse players in the racing experience like never before. Like its predecessor, GRID 2 will put the sheer thrill and adrenaline rush of the race at the heart of the experience. It’s what we call Total Race Day Immersion."

Grid 2 will span three continents and feature iconic automobiles selected from over four decades of racing history. Multiplayer is also being touted as a major component, integrating Codemasters's RaceNetm, which keeps track of all your best times and those of your closest rivals.
