Those attending the event can find a playable version of the fourth and latest entry in the iconic racing franchise over at the Deep Silver & Friends stand in Hall 9 and the Microsoft Xbox booth in Hall 8. Players will be able to compete against AI drivers with over 400 race personalities and experience the game’s nemesis system, which causes rival drivers to become more aggressive to the player following collisions.

“We are so excited to bring our vision for dynamic motorsport racing to the Gamescom community,” said GRID Game Director Chris Smith. “I truly look forward to seeing all the players having fun with GRID and creating their own racing stories, I hope to see you there.”

​GRID features a variety of cars and race types – including, point to point, circuit and street racing – all set across four continents. Havana was the latest Street Circuit to be announced for the game, which you can see in action in the video below.

GRID is out 11 October on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. A Google Stadia version will be available some time in November.
