The great thing is, there are so many different control schemes in this version of the game that it’s unlikely that you won’t find one that suits you. Tilting the console seems to require either too much or too little movement for the cars to respond properly, resulting in some hilariously (or frustratingly, depending on your disposition) slidey races. On the flipside, using these controls in handheld isn’t nearly as precise and responsive.
As long as you have steady hands, obviously. You’re not relying on the slightly-too-sensitive Switch analogue sticks, allowing you to be more precise in your steering. Honestly, I’ve almost always struggled with tilt controls and that’s not much different here, but when playing docked it works really quite well. As long as you’re playing with a controller capable of gyro controls, or in handheld, you have the option of enabling the ability to turn by tilting your controller. I worried that it would be almost unplayable without analogue triggers to accelerate and brake incrementally, and although it isn’t perfect with simple shoulder buttons, after a brief adjustment period, I rarely noticed the difference.Īnother control method that’s exclusive to Feral Interactive’s version of the game (not just the Switch version) is gyroscopic steering.
The thing is, there isn’t much about the Switch version that didn’t impress me. But that’s a stigma to be discussed elsewhere. We often look down on ports, thinking them inferior to the original game, especially when one of those ports is on mobile. So, GRID Autosport on Nintendo Switch is a port of the iOS port of the original game. But then, that’s almost always the case when you have hardware powerful enough to outdo the other versions.

So good, I would say that it’s on par with the console versions, only really being outdone by the PC version. Yes, I know Feral Interactive released a mobile version of the game back in 2017 on iOS, but I simply don’t use my phone or iPad for gaming, so here I am in 2019 playing the Nintendo Switch version. I’ve never played it handheld before, however. I still play it from time to time, even now. I even ended up buying the PC version with all the DLC later on, I enjoyed the game so much. When Autosport released back into 2014, I sank so many hours into its career and various other modes on Xbox 360, including the DLC that was released post-launch. I’ve said before that Race Driver: GRID was the game that really turned me into the racing fan I am today.
