GRIP: Combat Racing throws players into a high‑octane blend of wheeled and anti‑gravity racing, where speed hits Mach‑1 levels and weapons turn every lap into a battle. The game spans 29 tracks on four alien worlds, letting you race on floors, walls, ceilings and even in space.
Beyond solo play, GRIP supports split‑screen, online matchmaking for up to ten racers, team‑based modes, and a dedicated death‑match arena. With VR support and full controller compatibility, the experience is designed for both couch co‑op and competitive online play.
