Virtual photographers will love the new photo mode in GRID Legends.

Photos can be tweaked with a variety of options such as camera roll, depth of field, zoom, motion blur, and shutter speed to get the perfect shot. Numerous effects can also be applied such as filters, contrast, and saturation to create artistic shots. You can even adjust the lighting by changing the position of the sun.

The Photo Mode update arrives after the fan-favourite demolition derby mode returned to GRID Legends with the Classic Car-Nage Pack DLC.

Photo Challenge

To celebrate the new Photo Mode, Codemasters has partnered with Porsche, Fordzilla, The London Eye, Xite, and more to launch the GRID Legends Photo Challenge.
