Video game publisher Feral Interactive has released the racing title "GRID Autosport" for the iPhone and iPad. The game's stunning quality will remind players of its impressive console counterparts.

With the release to mobile devices, the popular triple-A title will take advantage of the intuitive tilt and touch controls of the iPhone and iPad. Players will also be able to take the excellent racing game with them in their pockets, something that is always a welcome feature.

The game delivers a host of content to the devices, as it will include all of the original downloadable content (DLC) of the original game. This means that iOS players will get 28 circuits and over 100 cars to choose from.

In the game's career mode, players will be given the choice from six different disciplines that would move the mode forward. These disciplines include Tuner, which focuses on modified motors that go beyond its limits; Touring, which focuses on full-contact races; Endurance, which feature long night-time races; Open Wheel, which puts emphasis on acceleration; Street, which specialize in tight city circuits; and Party Mode, which focuses on being the last car standing.

The graphics of the game is comparable with the console version of "GRID Autosport," which was previously released on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Because of the quality of the assets used and the fast-paced gameplay, the game is quite demanding on the mobile devices' resources.

"GRID Autosport" can be installed only on an iPhone SE, iPhone 7 or newer, iPad 2017, and iPad Pro. The game requires the latest version of Apple's mobile operating system, iOS 11.

Players who wish to play the game may also find that the installation process takes a bit of time. The app itself, when downloaded from the App Store, is already a 4 GB download. However, once the app is launched, it will need to download additional content before being able to start. Overall, the game will need around 6 GB of storage space.
