Asphalt 9’s Most Amazing Stunts

Tap to watch unbelievable jumps and shocking shortcuts.

Thrilling to the core, Asphalt 9: Legends lets you pull off some of the coolest tricks ever seen in a racing game. Here’s a quick taste of the mind-blowing maneuvers skilled drivers can execute.

Spin and smash

‣ To reach the finish line first, sometimes you’ve gotta take your rivals out of the race. Inch up next to a competitor and double-tap to perform a 360-degree spin that’ll send them flying off the road. Time this move just right and you can knock out multiple cars in one whirl.

Get maximum air

‣ Launch off ramps to get a bird’s-eye view of each course and shave precious seconds off your time. For a bigger boost, hit nitro while you’re midair, which helps you soar ridiculous distances—like over the Golden Gate Bridge. If you’re really lucky, you might even land on another car and wreck the driver in the process.

Take a quicker route

‣ Ramps aren’t the only way to pull ahead of the pack. Keep an eye out for shortcuts offering faster routes through a course, whether it’s a detour up a mountain pass or a chance to barrel straight through an empty office building. All in a day’s work, eh?

Swerve and hug curves

‣ With windy roads come opportunities to drift, which both looks cool and charges up your nitro meter. You know you’re doing it right when—on Shanghai’s S-shaped streets, for example—you can use a series of huge drifts and subsequent nitro boosts to catapult yourself into first place.
