Smarter rivals, tougher decisions, and races where it's not just about speed, but about handling the pressure. HEAT: Legends turns every track into an arena where skill, timing, and the courage to push the limits determine the winner.
This game is only an expansion. You must own HEAT to play it.
The HEAT: Legends expansion is for all racing fans who want more excitement and variety from the game. It is ideal for players who like to compete against smart opponents controlled by the game or who want to fill the starting grid even with fewer people at the table. The game is designed for 1–5 players, the recommended age is 10+, and you should allow about 60 minutes for one game. The expansion will be appreciated by solo drivers looking for a real challenge, as well as groups who want to bring new excitement to the races without increasing the complexity of the game.
HEAT: Legends expands the legendary driver system known from the base game and gives you full control over their behavior and difficulty. Each car on the track can become an independently functioning opponent with its own abilities, reacting to the situation on the track, using adrenaline, taking advantage of slipstreaming, and putting you under constant pressure. Thanks to adjustable difficulty levels, you can easily customize whether you want a fast-paced race or a tough test of your driving skills.
The expansion also adds new modules that further deepen the game system. The Star module gives legends temporary abilities that change from lap to lap, forcing you to react to unexpected situations. The Rivals module then elevates selected legends to real threats that behave more aggressively and can influence the entire course of the race. HEAT: Legends seamlessly builds on the base game Heat and expands it with another layer of strategy without unnecessary rule complications.
- It allows you to turn any number of cars on the track into full-fledged legendary rivals, so you can enjoy the race even in solo mode or with fewer players.
- It offers adjustable difficulty in several levels, allowing you to easily adapt the race to the mood and experience of the entire group.
- The Star module adds variable abilities that are activated directly during the race, forcing you to constantly reevaluate your strategy.
- The Rivals module creates real opponents on the track who can dramatize the race and significantly influence the order without artificial intervention.
- It significantly increases the replayability of the base game, as each race evolves differently thanks to the combination of abilities and difficulty.
- It fits naturally into the championship system and allows you to increase the difficulty between races.
- It allows you to engage up to twelve game-controlled cars, so you can easily simulate a full starting grid even without other human players.
- It gives you more control over the pace and dynamics of the race, as the behavior of the legends changes according to the situation on the track and the selected difficulty.
- It adds new decision-making moments to the game, where you have to consider not only your own moves, but also the possible reactions of your automatic opponents.
- It expands the game system without the need to add new maps or cars, so it retains the clarity and fluidity you are used to in HEAT.
The HEAT: Legends expansion will be released in 2026 by the original publisher Days of Wonder, and will also be localized into Czech in the same year. Sidekick Studio contributed to the design of the expansion, and the game was created by Asger Aleksandrov Granerud and Daniel Skjold Pedersen, Norwegian game designers. French developer Adrien Martinot also contributed to the development, and the visual design of the game was created by French illustrator Vincent Dutrait, whose style is closely associated with the entire HEAT series.
