The story mode was shot using live action from actors such as Ncuti Gatwa (Eric Effiong in Sex Education), who could see their digital surroundings via LED screens – it’s the same tech Disney used to shoot The Mandalorian.
Here’s the official blurb:
“The legendary Grid World Series returns and, this year, players are front and centre in a fly-on-the-wall documentary that captures every moment on and off the track. Drivers encounter fierce personalities, internal team politics and the infamous Ravenwest Motorsport, which hopes to take a sixth World Championship. Developed using innovative virtual production, which brings players closer to the action, the underdog tale features an eclectic cast, including award-winning British actor Ncuti Gatwa.
