With Season 1’s focus being on Hot Hatches, Season 2 takes to the track some of the most exotic, powerful and ground-breaking machines designed by world renowned manufacturers.

Owners of the Ultimate Edition will get access to the Track Day Supercars Pack, which adds four brand new vehicles:

  • Ferrari FXX

  • Aston Martin Vulcan AMR Pro

  • Brabham BT62

  • Pagani Zonda Revolucion

In addition, two bonus cars are also coming with the Track Day Supercars pack which is available to all players of GRID - The Ferrari F99XX Evo and the Ford GT Heritage Edition.

A brand-new circuit is coming to GRID with the launch of Season 2. On February 12th, take to Austria to race around the famous motorsport venue that is the Red Bull Ring.

The Red Bull Ring is known for creating dramatic racing, with a layout remaining mostly unchanged since 1996, you’ll find yourself racing through daunting turns, mountainsides and apexs with huge braking zones and overtaking opportunities galore.

The Red Bull Ring is available to all GRID players in Career, Free Play and Mulitplayer, and will feature infield, shorter and reverse routes - with each route playable in weather conditions.

New Career Events

Season 2 will also bring a new expansion to GRID’s career mode, adding an extra 33 new events which utilize the new Red Bull Ring and Track Day Supercars.

Ultimate Edition players can find the new events in a brand new tab in the Career menu, featuring two new threads of events: Showdown events and the latest Ravenwest Motorsport Challenge.

Along with the new season is a bunch of technical improvements and community requested features, one of those being the option to extend the length of races in the Career mode

And that’s all for the new content coming to GRID when Season 2 drops early next month. With the recent addition of Public Lobbies to GRID, now seems like the perfect time than ever to get back in and hit the track!

GRID Season 2 launches on February 12th for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.
