Race Driver: Grid (2008)

Developed under the working title Race Driver One,[21][22] Race Driver: Grid was released for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo DS, and Games for Windows on 3 June 2008. Before its release, over one million people downloaded the demo. It features an improved graphics engine (a common complaint was that even on the lowest setting the graphics couldn't be handled by low-spec PCs) from Colin McRae: Dirt, has over 40 real-life cars and a variety of both fictional and realistic interpretations of tracks.

Grid 2 (2013)

On 8 August 2012, Codemasters announced that the sequel to Race Driver: GRID, Grid 2 was in development. Codemasters stated that Grid 2 "will challenge players to be fast, be first and be famous as they enter a stunning new world of competitive motorsport", the game was released on 28 May 2013 on Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.[23]

Grid Autosport (2014)

Grid Autosport attempts to move the series back towards "more authentic racing games" following the release of Grid 2, which Codemasters felt was not as well-received by the company's core fanbase as they hoped. The developers consequently introduced major modifications to the handling model and built a lean, race-first oriented design for this title. It is available for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Linux and macOS with announced releases for iOS, Android, and Nintendo Switch.

Grid (2019)

A fourth instalment in the Grid series, simply known as Grid, was released on 11 October 2019 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, and on 19 November 2019 for Stadia. It features vehicles from the Le Mans GT and Daytona Prototype. The game was developed under Fernando Alonso's consultation and employs a new AI system, called "Nemesis". Opponents can be driven by up to 400 different AI profiles, each simulating different driving styles and behaviours.[24][25]
