Grid Legends is out later this week, February 25th, and as the series is now under the EA banner, a free trial is available this time out. If you're an EA Play or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscriber, you can now go hands on with 10 hours of Grid Legends before launch.
How To Find The Grid Legends Free Trial On Xbox
- Go to the Microsoft Store app on your Xbox
- Search for 'Grid Legends'
- Find the standard version for your console and select it
- Slightly further down, you should see an option for 'Free Trial'
- Select this, and the download will start
As Grid Legends takes advantage of Smart Delivery, you'll only be able to play the specific version for your console. Sadly, that means no extra 10 hours by trialling both the last gen and next gen versions.
To make sure you get the most out of your trial though, always fully quit the game when not playing. The 10-hour limit counts down whenever the game is running, and that time will will drain if you suspend it or leave it running in the background.
Will you be giving Grid Legends a go using this Game Pass trial? Let us know below.

I feel sorry for this game, launching the same day as Elden Ring. I liked the last Grid and will definitely pick this up at some point.
I'd normally like to try this... but with GT7 so close, there's no point for me.
I think this is a tough release window with so many heavy hitters competing for your time and money, but I wish codies well, even if I suspect this is now the beginning of the end of Codemasters. Once you are bought by EA, the clock ticks and your studio will wither and perish - shame.
They really are sending this one out to die.
I'm excited for this. Definitely happy there is a trial because I want to try this with my wheel. Heard the first grid was great.
I was so close to ordering this today, but with GT7 just around the corner I decided against it. Great that I can now play for 10 hours for free before GT7 releases!
Something weird with the mirrors on the in car view. Makes all seem very flat.
I’ve played some of the demo and it’s really great. Don’t write it off.
Purchased Assetto Corsa Competizione today and will be the same with this on Friday. Delighted I get to play it early before release.
The demo is giving me some good PGR 3 vibes. Smooth, clean presentation and the handling is good. Powersliding in some of the faster vehicles
Played a few of the story chapters and it's classic GRID, which is a good thing, and what I played was pretty fun. I just don't think it's got enough punch to compete with GT7 and FH5. Graphically it's nice looking but not going to blow anyone away. I probably said it in a comment before, but Codies really, really needs a next-gen engine.
I would actually really love to see Codemasters make a racing game that's not a "racing" game. Something like the old Driver series or maybe even Smuggler's Run or Stuntman.
I don't hate the GRID or Dirt series by any means but I can't help but feel like Codies are in a rut... no pun intended.
Played a few hours and it's not bad, above average racer. Should hit game pass/EA play before the end of the year and I may dive deeper then.
