[x]GAMEPLAY

In the gameplay, after playing the game for sometime I would say it's similar to the asphalt 8: airborne but there's quite a difference in graphics and design. There are up to 48 cars for the players to collect, all of which are extremely prestigious. There are as usual just like in the previous games, five car classes: D, C, B, A, and S. All cars in the game now require blueprints to unlock and level up and also, a new car editor is in the game. 

There are now clubs, where you can make a community of players, and achieve reward. Asphalt 9: legends now has three control options, Tilt to steer, Tap to steer, and the newly introduced Touch Drive mode. Touch drive mode is similar to the controls from endless runner game, where you swipe to change paths or directions and actions.  Gameloft brings back a feature, the     nitro shockwave which was always present in   Asphalt 6: Adrenaline and Asphalt 7: Heat, but was not implemented in Asphalt 8. When the player taps twice on the Nitro button, a purple pulse will be sent out. 

There are as usual from the previous versions of the game, Career Mode and Multiplayer Mode. Career Mode, where you meet all different kinds of challenges, consists of five chapters. In each chapter, are many seasons where you are prompted to compete in so many race modes like, the Classic, Time attack: when the vehicle has to cross the finish line before time runs out, and Hunted: when the vehicle has to race against police cars, in a car chase. Multiplayer Mode, is where you can race with other players. In multiplayer, there is a ranking system, which consists of Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Legend.

The game also features new race tracks in Rome , Cairo , The Himalayas, The U.S. Midwest , and Scotland . It also brings back two tracks from previous games, which are San Francisco and

Shanghai .
