A new expansion for Asphalt 9: Legends that will bring a ton of technical updates and set the base for the future. It’s been our best and worst kept secret, and we couldn’t wait to finally be able to share all we’ve been working on for the past year. [h2][b]Uniting our Players[/b][/h2] [previewyoutube=XkplmGmcDyo;full][/previewyoutube] Asphalt is renowned for its online multiplayer, and we’re bringing you the chance to play with your friends! With Cross-play, we’re able to open the doors to a new world of possibilities, as you’ll be able to both play with and against others, no matter which platform you choose to play on. The team is also hard at work to bring you more fun stuff for you to do with your friends, as we will also be introducing Private Lobbies, for you to challenge your friends directly, and we’re also hard at work to implement a new Friends list, to help keep track and invite your friends even outside of clubs. We’ll be focusing on the release of cross play for the launch of Asphalt Legends Unite and continue to introduce Private Lobbies with plans to include Friends lists once ready, so if we’re not able to make it for launch, you can expect them to be included in following updates. After all, the launch Asphalt Legends Unite is just the start for us, and we’ll continue to offer more game changing updates in the following months. [h2][b]New Co-op Game Mode [/b][/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42598558/d2b4a068e769226cce02df75285d0ddfe100a9f8.png[/img] Another first for us! Asphalt Legends Unite will feature a new mode that will have 2 teams face each other in an exhilarating Police car chase! A team of 5 Syndicate drivers will be chased down by 3 Security cars, in a brand-new game mode that will have you barreling down challenging tracks and trying to either take down your foes or make your escape! This game mode was actually inspired by our loving community (with a shoutout to Admega, check him out on YouTube), and we can’t wait to see how you react! Will you embrace the cooperative aspect and come up with new strategies? Or will it be every car for themselves and embrace the crashing chaos? [h2][b]Improved game engine [/b][/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42598558/61d58fc3a4eb98a25d551784fb5f27f21596c327.png[/img] We’re upping our game even further, as Asphalt Legends Unite will also be launching with the next evolution of our custom graphics engine. This next step will bring more realism to our races, offering high fidelity visuals with vastly improved dynamic lighting and reflections on our tracks. It has also allowed us to add a lot more details to the cars themselves, with detailed car paint reflections, which will represent your choice of paint finish and even adding headlight lighting effects. Asphalt has never looked better!

You’ll also be able to easily navigate Asphalt Legends Unite menus and browse your collection of cars in an all-new Garage, which offers you the best place to truly appreciate your car collection and even customize them to your liking.
