Play now on Android and iOS! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eo0W8t_BtRk


Here is everything you need to know about the Liberty & Steel Season:


New Season, Challenges & Cars

 

• Welcome to The City: Cruise through a brand-new urban jungle, dodge heavy traffic, and embrace the muscle car spirit.
   
• The Caps Challenge: Collect enough caps scattered along the road during your runs to unlock an exclusive, patriotic ride!
   
• 5 New Vehicles Added:Magnate, Bully, SuperSanta, Rosso, Slimey.

Gameplay & Stat Overhaul


The dev team has completely reworked how cars behave and perform, giving each vehicle a more distinct personality.

 

• Durability and Coolness: Car skins, referred to in-game as Coolness, are no longer just cosmetic. Equipping a unique skin now alters your car's performance by granting distinct Durability (damage resistance) and Coolness (distance points multiplier) stats. Your choice of style now directly impacts how long you survive and how fast you score.
   
• Home Turf Affiliation: Every car now has a designated home map. Driving a vehicle on its Home Turf grants massive bonuses:
  +50% Coolness Multiplier
  +20% More Caps collected
  +10% Grip
  -10% Max Speed
   
• High-Stakes Police Chases: Watch your back! Police Damage has been introduced. Cop cars now hit much harder, meaning you'll need to keep a close eye on your car's condition if you want to survive the pursuit.

Progression & Economy Redesign


Say goodbye to the old upgrade system. The progression loop has been streamlined for a much smoother experience:


Cards Have Been Removed: You no longer need to collect specific car cards to upgrade your vehicles. From now on, you can upgrade your cars directly using your Caps!

 

• Garage Value Progression: Unlocking new maps and content is no longer a chore, it is now tied directly to your overall Garage Value. Grow your collection to see more of the world.
   
• Reworked Power-Ups: Power-up cards are a thing of the past. Now, passing a junkyard instantly grants you a randomized power-up. The rarity and strength of the power-up scale with your distance. The further you drive, the better the drops get!

Quality of Life Improvements

 

• New Cinematic Camera: Experience the drive like never before with a brand-new cinematic view. All camera options have been consolidated and moved directly into the in-game settings menu for easy tweaking on the fly.

This is Just the Beginning!


We are incredibly excited to bring you these massive changes, and we are just getting started! This update lays down an awesome new foundation for the future of #DRIVE, and everything you see here will continue to grow and evolve. Just like your runs, the further you go, the better.
