GRID Autosport Is Now Available As An iOS App

The three-year-old Codemasters racer has been ported across to iPhones and iPads and promises "console quality" gaming

01 Dec 2017

Codemasters’ GRID series was a pretty entertaining way of enjoying a racing game without the pressure and complexity of a full sim. We’ll forgive you if you’d forgotten about it seeing as the last entry - GRID Autosport - was released way back in 2014, but now it has returned. Sort of. Why? Because GRID Autosport has now been remade for iOS platforms.

GRID Autosport Is Now Available As An iOS App

The port has been done by publishers Feral Interactive and promises to bring “console quality” gaming to your iPhone or iPad (with an Android release apparently planned for the future). It certainly looks pretty impressive from the screenshots and trailer.

You’ll need a minimum of 6GB on your device to download it (8GB is recommended) and you’ll also have to have a fairly recent device in order to run it - anything older than an iPhone SE or iPad pro won’t cut it.

Whilst rival games like Real Racing 3 are free to download and make their money through in-app purchases, GRID Autosport requires a one-off payment of $9.99 - and that’s it. Your money gets you plenty of content, too - there are 100 cars and 100 tracks in the base game, with more being available as free downloads.

Even though it’s not the most recent racing game, it was a lot of fun on consoles and it should translate to mobile platforms pretty well. If it plays as good as it looks, it should be a winner!

Hold on, it had to have 6-8GB of RAM?! It doesn’t say RAM…and in the app description it says you’ll need 6-8GB of free space…pls help. I don’t wanna spend $9.99 on an app that won’t work for my iPhone

I’m pretty sure no phone has 8GB of ram lmao

I have iPhone 4S
Rip

Android??

Can’t have it.

You are so late… it was released like a week ago… Nothing new now..

Que the lag lol (well for me anyway)

I have iOS but I don’t have an iPad Pro or a phone
I cri every tim

really love the game on PC, great physics & experience, sound is great also. I have other games but I find myself playing this game mostly.

For it to work on idevices, a lot of details would be lost, but still for me grid over real racing any day. Not a fan of in-app purchases but some would say a free game is always better and I can understand that. However in my opinion I’d pay for everything or nothing to enjoy the game.
