Dabei handelt es sich um den Speedway Tribend in gleich drei verschiedenen Varianten und die Demolition Derby-Arena Thunderbowl. Besitzer der PS4-Version dürfen sich zudem über das Feature Voicechat und zwischen 15 und 25 Prozent schnellere Ladezeiten freuen.

Wie sich der veröffentlichten Änderungsübersicht entnehmen lässt, ist über die bereits genannten Maßnahmen hinaus vor allem beim Gameplay nachgebessert worden. Das dürfte sowohl PC- als auch Konsolengamer freuen.
