Description official description

Who needs to go inside the head of a professional race car driver? You can get everything you need from the view on top of it. SHIFT 2 Unleashed offers a new perspective on the franchise's unfiltered racing experience by adding an all-new helmet cam. Feel the intensity of competition from the driver's point of view in races built around physics models designed to deliver the sensation of moving 200 mph. Add custom touches to your high-performance racer and compete by day or light up the track at night. The game's Autolog monitors your achievements so you can see how you stack up against your friends.

More than 140 vehicles are available in the game.
