The development team at Codemasters is launching a new video for its upcoming GRID 2, designed to show off some of the American locations that the series will visit in all their splendor.

Gamers can get a sneak peek at Chicago, where the main event includes racing at high speed through the historic streets, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, where track racing is planned, and the coast of California where more traditional road racing is on the menu.

The video, which stars Patrick Callahan, also offers information on the racing clubs that will form the backbone of single-player progression in GRID 2.

The racing game will use an entirely new engine and the Codemasters team wants to focus on the quality of the simulation rather than on the number of cars and tracks offered.

GRID 2 will be launched in late May on the PC and home consoles.
