GRID Autosport Swerves Onto Switch This Summer

First ! Like a winning car

This looks very respectable

Not my thing, but I realize how important it is to have something like this in the switch’s library.

Think this could do well. Aren’t too many racing games of this type on switch.

@KIRO congratulations!

This will automatically become the greatest handheld racing sim. There's not exactly much competition for it to overtake but this is a bloody good racer so a new standard for handheld racing sims will be set.

@dugan thank you ! I put the hours in, worked hard , and eventually my dream came true

On topic: I quite fancy this. A genre I’ve not played in gawd knows how long. 8 plus reviews will help a purchase, a demo more so..

The only game of its kind of a Nintendo system. Will purchase.

Day one of course

FINALLY a proper realistic racing game on Switch that isn’t a half baked effort and is actually a good game. Took long enough but, better late than never.

Good looking racing sim, but how about putting Burnout on the Switch?

@OorWullie There’s a great sim on mobile called Real Racing. GRID will be a great competitor.

This fills a gap in the Switch’ library. It should be awesome to play with others online in handheld mode.

Gear.Club wasn't great but wasn't terrible either. This one seems more polish so I hope it lives up to its trailer.

I have Forza on PC for home (Dirt 2.0 is next!). So no racer on console can compete.

So that leaves CodeMaster on the GO - a Great combo. This is a Buy just for the hopes CM takes this engine and makes an F1 game.

Driving RedBull/Honda on my commute would be amazing. But I'll take this for now - Day 1 😏

Realistic racers are a rare breed on Switch. But I would argue that traditional military FPS games are as well.

@Agramonte I'm honestly surprised to see you so excited for this.

@Indielink I'll play old racers (well, not ancient). I get bored re-playing games I know how the story ends. Or seen every level and Boss. old Action Adventure and RPGs are a hard sell. But setting up a car the way I like and racing a track or people online I still find fun regardless. I would not buy this on PS4... But handheld it could work.

I am also assuming it is not $60. Well hoping.

If the price is right, I'll buy it. I really like car racing games and that's definitely something the Switch is lacking.

@misterMike When compared to Gran Turismo or Forza it will not hold up as well. I can tell you having played both the 2 I mentioned and Grid on the ps3 that it was still a pretty good game. I would easily say an 8 out of 10 and if it holds up to the ps360 version it will score well.

My concern in the trailer they showed was I saw some jaggy's going on and what seemed like frame rate drops here and there. Really hope the frame rate holds up.

Dirt 3 or 4 on Switch next please!! Dare I say Micro Machines series too??

Hope this reviews well, still need the racing sim itch scratched.

This is NOT a sim though. Cars accelerate too damn fast, and can turn at crazy speeds while drifting, but physics are still amazing, specialy crashes, there is a fun demolition derby mode. A sim would be Gran Turismo or Asseto Corsa.
Still a LOT BETTER than Gear Club. Easily no competition on switch. Hope it runs better than the ps3 version. Played the original grid in 2007, it was amazing.
