The season of giving is upon us, and guessing by the update contents you all must have been extra good this year!
As we already teased in our Roadmap video, this Update brings more than just 2 new seasons of content, but is also packed with updates for you to enjoy during the holiday season.
Avenged Sevenfold Collaboration
The rumours were true! Although the main part of the show will be held in the Year of the Snake Season, Avenged Sevenfold will also be making a guest-star appearance in our new Boss Mode TLE this Festive Fury Season.
Get ready for the most METAL Holiday Season in Asphalt history!
New Track: Chicago
Debuting in our first season, Festive Fury, our latest track takes you to the windy city itself: Chicago!
Get ready to launch yourself through the rooftops as you manouver through death-defying jumps, slide across shining skylights, and take the occasional shortcut straight through other buildings.
New Co-op Mode: Team Racing
A brand new co-op mode will also be unveiled, where we give the cop cars a rest and focus fully on the joys of racing. Join a co-op race of up to 4v4 players, where all racers will vie for position on the same track.
Points will be given at the end of the race based on your position, and the team with most points wins!
The New Team Racing will be joining our Season Series rotation, and as usual provide rewards based on your series score and allow you full access to your garage.
New TLE: Boss Mode
This new event will feature a challenging duel versus an opponent with extreme road rage. Face down the Boss in this new time limited event, where you'll not only have to beat him to the finish line, but also survive his attempts to knock you off the track, as he will only get more aggressive the closer you are.
Get ready for the fight of your life in our new Boss Mode!

Other Features
New Sub Tier Multiplayer Rewards and MP Pass Changes
In our Roadmap, we teased our planned update for new Sub Tier Mutliplayer Rewards. We paid close attention to your feedback and have since buffed the rewards a bit more, along with including an extra bonus for the final round in each split.
With this update, we'll be adding a whole new layer of end of round rewards, based on what Sub Tier you managed to reach by the end of each round. Rewards for the end of Round 4 will give you extra rewards to celebrate the end of the split.
These reward changes also bring an update to how our MP Pass works. Instead of providing you lesser rewards for previous ranks, the MP Pass bonus will now be more than double your highest earned reward on most ranks, providing you more valuable rewards based on the rank you were able to achieve.
Ranked rewards have also been updated, with added Legend Packs, more tokens, and including Epic Import Part card packs as a reward for round 4!
Milestones have also been extended and streamlined. Thanks to all the feedback shared during our Bonus round, we're adapting what we've learned into the World League milestones, along with updated rewards and higher milestones to aim for, yet with the milestone progression you've grown accustomed to in our MP1. The higher your rank, the faster you'll be able to progress through your milestones.
Make sure to check them out in-game and let us know your thoughts!
As we continue to work on improving multiplayer, we'll be keeping a close eye on your feedback in case we need to tweak this further during the season.
New MP Reward Notifications and Previews
Some of our players mentioned it can be tough sometimes to know if you have available rewards to claim.
To help out, we're including a notification system that will let you know when you have unclaimed rewards, and quickly navigate to claim them.
We're also adding new screens that will allow you to preview what future Triumph rewards you'll be able to claim.
Nintendo Switch and PlayStation Cross-save Benefits
We've been paying close attention to what our Switch and PlayStation Legends have had to say on our Discord and we appreciate all the time you've taken to share your feedback.
The team understands it can be hard sometimes to keep up without the added benefits of being able to watch rewarded ads. So, in order to help bridge the gap, we'll be allowing you to claim, for a limited amount of times a day, the same rewards, such as refills, multipliers, card packs, etc.
We hope this helps, and thank you again for sharing your thoughts with us on our Discord.
Car Balancing
Thanks to your feedback, we've taken another look at the Devel Sixteen, as we agreed it could use some extra tweaks.
We've slightly buffed it this time, providing an improvement to how to maneuvers around curves. We hope this will improve how it feels to drive the car overall.
Private Lobby Improvements
We're bringing some fresh new modes and settings for you to enjoy with your friends in Private Lobbies:
- New Mode - Slipstream: You'll now be able to choose between Classic or Slipstream races.
- New Knockdown and Collision settings: You'll be able to toggle whether you enable both, disable collisions, disable knockdown, or run the entire race in Ghost mode.
- Ghost start: You'll be able to set how many seconds of ghost you'll start the race with.
New Haptic Feedback on PlayStation and Xbox Controllers
We're including support for Haptic feedback on controllers for PlayStation 5 and Xbox, to truly feel the road on your fingertips.
Added PS5 Pro Support
Asphalt Legends Unite now offers full support for the PlayStation 5 Pro.
New Menu and Navigation Improvements
We've streamlined our menus even further to help get you where you need to be quicker.
In the new Menu you will no longer find the "Home Screen" as we've mode access to to the Player Profile, Daily Missions and Garage to the top menu bar.
You'll also be able to notice some improvements in the Car upgrade screens.
Improved Garage Lighting and Effects
The Garage has also been shown some love this update, as we've further tweaked the lighting and effects to make sure your car is more center stage than ever.
Tracks Polished
We took some time to show some extra love to our classic tracks, and allow them to fully shine thanks to the new engine:
- Buenos Aires
- San Francisco
- Scotland
- Rome
- Cairo
Performance and Graphics Improvements
We continue to work to ensure we offer the best gameplay experience. We'd like to ask you to also keep us updated on Discord if you notice improvements or still find any issues, as any performance issues will continue to be a focus for our developers.
Some fixes included in this update, but not limited to:
- Performance improvements across al devices, particularly reducing loading times on iOS devices.
- New grahic settings for depth of field and Motion Blur included for some devices.
- Improved car quality on Android devices.
- Fixed anti-aliasing in menus
And that's all we have for today! As you can see this update is jam packed with new things for you to try out, and you can expect another mini-patch notes ahead of our Year of the Snake season with more details on all the events you can expect, along with Avenged Sevenfold's Special Event! Rock on, Legends!
