Asphalt Legends Unite Review - The Final Verdict
23,023
Published 2024-07-23
Featuring improved visuals, a new track in Singapore, overhauled multiplayer modes, a new PvP mode called Team Pursuit and crossplay, Unite purportedly offers a lot for long-time fans. Unfortunately, the matchmaking in its "ranked" modes is subpar, while Team Pursuit is a poor imitation of Hot Pursuit from the NFS series.
Coupled with annoying progression systems, egregious monetization, horrendous rubberbanding and a repetitive Career Mode, Asphalt Legends Unite feels like a drag. Its arcade gameplay and visuals may prove enticing - plus it's free-to-play. However, the real meat of the experience is incredibly lacking when it's not actively trying to aggravate you.

We need a good free-to-play racing game. There's tons of ways to do it with fair monetization, these companies are just greedy as hell.
-
This is the type of game you’d love as a 5-7 year old back in the day
-
I remember Asphalt used to be a good racing game..
-
I wish we could get a new Ridge Racer
-
This game is fun but’s it’s sadly ruined by aggressive micro transactions
-
cars are cool but at the end of the day it's just a mobile game and the races are waaaay too short to actually be fun and honestly I think a 4 is being very generous I'd give it 1.5 simply based on the nice cars and the nice graphics

In an alternate world where asphalt 8 airborne wasnt ruined by greed and the 9th sequel is actually fun and enjoyable
-
I still play this but the grind feels impossible when u are f2p
-
This game plays by itself..

Gameloft found their golden egg in asphalt! Used to love their N.O.V.A series 1 to 4, still holding out for a proper sequel thats just a story single player thing till now. Even loved their Dungeon hunter games 1 to 4, their modern combat games too 1 to 4, 😅 wow am starting to see a trend..And I really really loved Wild Blood, such an experience on a mobile phone, that made my days. But now....

Had my niece give it a try after the unite update. She was like, "Can I buy a car?" Pure soul, I wish we could.

They still have the gas system on a console game? Idk about this I just downloaded it
-
Pay to win garbage...don't waste your time.
-
I play the game on my iPad … how do I transfer my iPad account to the ps4 ? Or is it even possible to play with one account on both devices?, thanks

I miss Blur
-
No vibration on controllers 😢
-
Been curious about this for some reason
-
4:16 Slightly less better. Wut?
-
Also, exactly as Disney SpeedRun, races are super brief, you cant RESTART a race, MTXs everywhere..it sucks.

Once the whales try out non-free racing games, they'll realize how much fun they could've had with multiple games with all cars unlocked for a fraction of money they spent to unlock one car in Asphalt
