Gameloft announces Asphalt 8: Airborne

Last night Gameloft posted a video of their upcoming game Asphalt 8: Airborne. The new game promises to be much more high action, involving smashing cars into each other and driving race cars at 200+ MPH. The action packed preview is just past the break...

Gameloft promises both synchronous and asynchronous multiplayer, in addition to several game modes such as Gate Drift, Infected and Takedown, the latter making a return from Asphalt 7. 

Gate Drift will challenge you to drift your way through multiple gates. The more you get through, the more points you get.

Infected mode has one player starting as “infected.” The goal is to hit another car within 20 seconds in order to pass the infection along and regain health.

You can also expect eight brand new maps and an assortment of high-end vehicles from the usual suspects like Lamborghini, Bugatti, Zonda, Ferrari, Mercedes and many more.

Asphalt 8 is coming soon to iOS and Android.

Oh, and it’s going to cost only 99 cents.
