Game Changes[]
Gameplay Changes[]
- For Drive Syndicate events, Takedown mode was introduced, where Security cars are driven in the event with an altered, self-refilling single-tap nitro system intended for aiming and knocking down cars.
- New Career Season: Bring the Heat.
- A new Shop category called Clash Store, was added, featuring two new currencies:
Clash Coins & Clash Tokens, and included the following cars:
- The shop layout was overhauled during a hotfix on August 4, 2022. Instead of all shop categories and their respective contents being viewable on a single row, each category is now displayed on its own screen. The player can move between categories by navigating up/down or using the menu to the left of the shop. The Syndicate Store still uses the original shop layout.
- New feature: Auto-Claim.
- Upon reaching Garage Level 12, when entering Daily Car Loots, Daily/Open/Deluxe Class Cups, and Credits Heists, all obtainable rewards will be highlighted in a hollow yellow frame, and a yellow "Auto-Claim" button will replace the green "Race" button. Pressing the "Auto-Claim" button will instantly reward the player with all obtainable rewards for the event; no tickets are consumed. After pressing "Auto-Claim", the standard "Race" button will reappear, and the player can play the event normally with the standard ticket consumption.
- The Player Profile screen is now available on all leaderboards and has been overhauled. Accessible by pressing the round "i" button to the right of a player entry, the updated screen shows significantly more details about the player (e.g. current multiplayer World Series league, reputation and garage levels, club) on the first tab, and has a second tab that allows the player to be blocked or reported.
Map Changes & Additions[]
- New Map: Greenland. The map also has the following features:
- Geysers: Allowing the car to get into airborne while doing 360s when erupts.
- Plane Airflow: Pushing the car to the sideways.
- Volcano Vapor: When player enters them while performing a 360, it will lift the car upwards.
Multiplayer Changes[]
- In World Series multiplayer, a restricted selection of cars is now available from each league, instead of the older system where all cars are available, but their class determines which league they are available from. The league that the car is available from appears to be based primarily on the car's MAX rank.
- On August 4, 2022, the system was reverted due to community feedback.
Visual Changes[]
- The player's Player ID will now appear on the top-left corner of the screen when the game is starting up.
- Headlights of the Tushek TS 900 Racer Pro has been improved.
- A full-stop is now appended to the message that appears on the club message board when a player renames themselves.
Device & Platform-specific Changes[]
- 120 FPS option for additional devices were introduced.
- Certain in-track billboards were temporary changed in the form of Windows 11 advertisements.
- On iOS devices, there is an option to delete your account on the in-game settings.

Bugs & Errors[]
Active[]
- Upgraded Bentley Continental GT3: The Bentley Continental GT3 has its performance characteristics changed to that of a mid-ranked Class B or low-ranked Class A car despite still being classified as a high-end Class D car, and its suspension has been lowered significantly, making it visually resemble a slammed car. The "upgraded" GT3 has a much higher top speed than the TVR Griffith, while also seemingly draining nitro at a slower rate and being more stable to drive. It is possible that the GT3's performance characteristics were accidentally mirrored from the Bentley Continental GT Speed's, which is a low-ranked Class A car that has a similar acceleration and handling ratings as the GT3, but is slightly more stable and has considerably higher top speed and nitro efficiency ratings.
- This was fixed in the Around the World Update.
- Viewable Hidden Cars: While not directly accessible from the Garage, the Security Interceptor and W Motors Lykan Security can be viewed by navigating left or right while viewing a top-ranked Class B and Class S car respectively, with the Interceptor placed between the McLaren F1 LM and Volkswagen W12, and the Lykan Security placed between the SSC Tuatara and Bugatti La Voiture Noire. Similarly, when viewing the statistics of a car for an unrestricted race (e.g. Daily Car Loot), the player can navigate left or right to see cars that are hidden from the Garage.
- This was partially fixed with the Around the World Update—while the car selection screen in time-limited events no longer shows hidden cars, players can still navigate left and right on the car selection screen for Career Mode races to see cars that are hidden from the garage.
- Post-Race Time Glitch: The post-race screen shows a "Your Time" of 00:00.000 instead of the player's actual time. The latter is recorded and displayed correctly on leaderboards and other screens, however.
- This was fixed in the Around the World Update.
- Rename Glitch: Upon entering the game after updating, if the player is in a club, the club's message board will mention that the player renamed themselves, even if they did not actually do so.
- Polluted Pickup Bug: The nitro pollution pickup does not reduce the player's maximum nitro.
- Race Results Spacing Glitch: When viewing the results of a multiplayer race, all opponent entries have a lot of extra spacing before the name. Only the player's entry is unaffected.
- This was fixed in the Around the World Update.
- Milestone Glitch: The "Next Milestone" indicators for World Series and Trial/Limited Series multiplayer start at 900/1,800 and 1,100 respectively, even if the player has not increased their series score to the needed amounts to obtain earlier milestone rewards. The player will still receive any earlier milestone rewards once they have increased their series score to the required amount.
- This was fixed with the introduction of the Multiplayer Bonus Pass on September 8, 2022.
- Inconsistent Bentley Continental GT Speed Blueprint Rarity: The blueprint for the Bentley Continental GT Speed is classified as a Rare blueprint even though it has the appearance of an Epic blueprint.
- This was fixed in the Around the World Update, with the appearance of the card being corrected.
Fixed[]
- Car fixes:
- Rear badge and brake discs of the W Motors Lykan HyperSport.
- Mismatched livery of the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12.

Trivia[]
- This update has the most amount of cars added in one update, with 9.
- Like a regular update, only 7 cars were able to be obtained, due to unobtainable Security cars —Security Interceptor, an unlicensed police sedan with the similar appearance of NPC Security Sedans, and W Motors Lykan Security, a fictional variant of an already existing car in the game— that was added with the intention of driving in a game mode.
- Cars from both the Bugatti and Pagani brands were released in different classes compared to where the brand would usually release in Class S and Class A, respectively.
- The Bugatti Centodieci (Class S) and the Bugatti EB110 (Class C)—the car that the Centodieci was designed as a tribute, were both added in an update.
- With the introduction of the top-ranked Pagani Huayra R for Class B, Volkswagen no longer feature top-ranked cars in multiple classes. Prior to this update, this brand featured 2 top-ranked cars, the Volkswagen W12 Coupé for Class B, and the Volkswagen Electric R for Class D.
