The Racing Evolution Begins Today with the Global Launch of Asphalt Legends Unite on Xbox, PlayStation, PC, and Mobile
New social-focused features and series' first Cross-Play support take multiplayer racing to new speeds, retail edition coming August 29th
Replacing Asphalt 9: Legends on all digital storefronts, Asphalt Legends Unite allows current players to easily upgrade and continue their tour of racing while introducing new players to the trademark high-speed and action-packed Asphalt racing experience.
Building on the monumental global success of the Asphalt racing franchise, Asphalt Legends Unite takes players global with the series’ first-ever inclusion of cross-platform support. This brings to the game massive opportunities for both casual multiplayer and esports competition. Along with global competitions, platform-specific tournaments, and the return of live stage finals, the addition of cross-play means every Asphalt Legends Unite racer will have almost limitless competition at their fingertips.
In addition to the classic Career mode that guides players through the basics of the Asphalt Legends Unite experience, the game includes other exciting modes and features such as a new Singapore track, new vehicles, the 20-player Grand Prix and the bi-annual month-long narrative-focused Drive Syndicate set in a seedy, criminal underworld. Team Pursuit, a mode completely new to the series, takes Asphalt multiplayer to new levels with asymmetric, real-time, team-based races where 5 Syndicate players must coordinate to escape 3 Security pursuers. While the Syndicate players must elude capture, Security drivers are tasked with taking down a total of 5 Syndicate racers to claim victory. Whether playing aggressively or conservatively, using teammates as bait, or simply trying to use speed to win, Team Pursuit opens up many strategic and competitive possibilities.
Players that prefer to race with their crew can now create their own lobbies via a private room system where they can invite players within their friend list. The host player can set several race parameters, including the track, car class, racing mode, number of laps, and more. The private lobby feature also supports spectators, allowing non-racers to watch the action and opening up new customization options for esports competitions.
Besides new modes and other features, Asphalt Legends Unite also contains plenty of changes under the hood, including an upgraded game engine and improved dynamic lighting to add extra levels of realism to every single race. In addition, player garages have received a visual overhaul that results in a more modern leaning aesthetic and a much-requested garage level cap increase. Players will also notice significant user interface improvements with UI focused on smoother navigation, more intuitive layouts, and improved accessibility for players using controllers.
To celebrate the launch of Asphalt Legends Unite, a physical edition is set to be released globally on PlayStation 5 on August 29th. Asphalt Legends Unite Supercharged Edition – retailing for $39.99 – will include six extra car unlocks spread across all performance classes, 5,000 tokens of in-game currency, 5,000,000 credits of in-game currency, and a “Unite” car livery for the Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4. Celebrations are also taking place in-game as players who log in within the first two racing seasons will receive a free Nissan 370Z Neon Edition, 20 card packs, 50,000 credits, and 750 tokens.
A Nintendo Switch version of Asphalt Legends Unite Supercharged Edition will be sold exclusively in Europe at a later date.
