Phil writes, "The Asphalt arcade racing series is one that's no stranger to mobile devices, and while it's tried to make the jump in the past to more traditional gaming devices such as the Nintendo 3DS and the PlayStation Vita, it couldn't quite land on all four wheels. Instead, for the most part, it careened off course and wiped out. Now, the Asphalt series sees its ninth mainline installment--which released on mobile devices last year--on the Nintendo Switch with the same free-to-play formula and monetization practices. With analog controls as well as the same optional touch-based and gyro-based controls, Asphalt 9: Legends manages to burn some serious rubber on the Switch."

Gameloft has announced a big milestone for its Asphalt racing franchise. The 16-year-old series has topped a billion downloads across all platforms. In addition, Gameloft today announced that Asphalt 9: Legends will soon be launching on Xbox.
I have been playing this since the DS days. The improvements throughout the versions have been pretty good, simple but good.
Yeah, I remember playing it as a launch title on the DS. Pretty rough around the edges but decent fun at the time.
Great free mobile game so long as the cars don't cost fifty billion points to purchase (equivalent to ten real dollars).
