The arcade racer genre, outside of a select couple of franchises exclusive to other platforms, has effectively died. Poor sales during the PlayStation 3 and early PS4 era put an end to many of Sony’s efforts, and a number of third-party franchises have gone the same way. GRID Legends may be your best bet in 2022 when it comes to powerslides on PlayStation next year, then.

To be fair, this series of “highlight reel” gameplay clips looks really good. We get a good look at a London circuit, as well as some multi-discipline events, featuring trucks going up against dune buggies and the like. It all looks chaotic enough to get our attention, and while the footage is restricted to just 1080p at 30 frames-per-second, you can tell this will be a looker.

For more on the game, you can watch an extended video based on the same footage here through the link.
