The arrival of Audi as a permanent manufacturer to Asphalt Legends means plenty of the brand's most iconic cars will also be making their way into the game.
To start, three new cars have been added to the game: the Audi R18 e-tron quattro, Audi R8 LMP1 2000, and the Audi R8 Coupé V10 performance quattro. All of these cars will be accompanied by their own special event.
The Audi R18 e-tron quattro event will be focused on the “Race to Collect” mechanic, with players able to earn items that extend the playtime, which in turn allows them to upgrade and unlock vehicles. It will be live from May 27th to June 23rd, and will include an exclusive livery.
The Audi R8 LMP1 2000 event will be live from 17th to July 1st, and will be a multi-stage progression event, with players unlocking rewards as they progress through it. Top players will earn a "bespoke livery" once the event finishes.
As for the Audi R8 Coupé V10 performance quattro event, it will take place from May 27th to June 9th. It will be a single-stage event, featured in the Daily Events section of Asphalt Legends.
