A big new patch for GRID Legends has been deployed on PS5 and PS4, and it brings a neat new feature to the racer. With the update installed, you'll have access to Photo Mode, letting you set up shots of your fancy cars and share them online.

You'll be able to access Photo Mode across many of the game's modes of play, and can initiate it from replays. As you'd expect, you have various options available to tweak the snapshot to your liking, including colour adjustments, filters, blur, and much more. A community challenge will be held every two days, in which players can take photos on a given theme. These might then appear on official channels, and possibly in-game too.

Photo Mode isn't the only change in the new update. Here are the full patch notes:
