A blockbuster announcement from Asphalt Legends on the racing carnival scene: Asphalt Legends joins PlayStation Tournaments! Daily races and massive tons of exclusive goodies await players under the mad rush of high-speed racing. If Arcade contains any players, they are definitely surprised.

So, what does that mean? Simply put: enter matches daily; endeavor to pull off the flawless run; claim your blueprints, tokens articles that will be glory to the garage worthy of a billionaire car collector. PlayStation’s official tweet (which was quite the tease) even ran a slick promo with the game’s logo center stage-right in-your-face kind of style.

It feels like, naturally, not everybody is celebrating. The words in the replies ranged, let’s say, from lackluster enthusiasm. One player invited PlayStation to get rid of the PS Plus for online multiplayer (good luck!). Another brought up Destruction AllStars as some sort of tragic missed opportunity-ouch. Then there was another guy who just blasted off an emotional tangent about how he missed Diablo IV because his dog died and he had to move across the country. Dang, that went ruSsle real fast.

On the other hand, folks were all hyped. GameCentric identified the exclusive rewards as massive incentives, whereas Morgan Marshall simply stated, “Ready to rev up?” Short and sweet. No need for further elaboration.

Then, the whole “Is Asphalt Legends worth a player’s time?” discussion ensued. One dude called it a “mobile game” as if it were some sort of insult (meanwhile, across its platforms, the game boasts a total of over 200 million downloads, so maybe just sit down). Luis Menendez, another player, replied “PEAK!🔥” to the question of whether it was worth a shot. So, just take that however you want.

Shout-out to the guy who dropped those player stats: 9.5 million monthly active users, 1,000 concurrent players on Steam. Like, who just has such numbers lying around? Next-level obsession right there.

Back to the question: So why aren’t more games involved in PlayStation Tournaments? Someone asked that blatantly, which was honestly fair enough. If Asphalt Legends can stir so much Kairagi, just imagine what some other competitive titles might do.

So yeah, Asphalt Legends is really something you might have intentionally been sleeping on. Daily races, exclusive prizes, and, you know, heaps of rubber-burning fun. Just don’t forget to check your Internet connection first because you’ll need it on some real serious level.

And maybe, feeling bitter about Destruction AllStars is just a little… forgive-able? Just putting it out there.
