Pre-orders are available now in $59.99 standard and $79.99 Deluxe editions. The latter includes four “huge” post-launch content packs, the “Mechanic Pass,” the additional cars Voklswagen Golf GTI and Audi R8 1:1, and exclusive Challenges.

Pre-orders for either edition include the “Seneca & Ravenwest Double Pack,” which unlocks four additional cars for Career events: the Aston Martin Vantage GT4, Porsche 962C, Ginetta G55 GT4, and Koenigsegg Jesko. It also features exclusive Ravenwest-focused Career events and exclusive Seneca and Ravenwest team icons, liveries and banners.

“With the release date set, the studio is putting the final polish to our deepest GRID game ever,” said Codemasters game director Chris Smith in a press release. “GRID Legends is an all-action accessible racer focused on variety and choice; deep career, a new innovative story mode, and a Race Creator that allows players to create dream racing match-ups with deep personalization. And our new hop-in gameplay enables friends to connect in seconds and spend more time on the track and less time in lobbies.”
