GRID is a racing game where you control the placement of various kinds of towers and defend against invading aliens. The game consists of a number of missions, each of which is to be completed by defending power cores from the aliens.
The gameplay involves placing and upgrading towers, as well as acquiring an orbital laser that can be fired to destroy aliens at its point of impact immediately. Placing and upgrading towers costs resources, which can be gained by destroying aliens or from interest on your current stock of resources. The player's goal is to complete the missions successfully and earn medals based on their performance.
The game features a variety of tower types, each with its own strengths and weaknesses, and upgradeable for increased effectiveness. Completing missions unlocks later missions as well as alternate play modes, such as challenge modes or limited-tower placement modes. With its blend of strategy and action, GRID is a thrilling racing experience.
GRID was released on the Xbox One in 2019, offering players a challenging and immersive racing game with a unique twist.
