Ashfall Drift season two: two provinces and a rebuilt ghost system

Season two adds the Sable Reach and Cinder Flats provinces, and replaces ghost replays with a system that records the run conditions alongside the line.

Season two is live on both stores. It adds two provinces, four cars, and a change to ghosts that we should have made at launch.

Ghosts now carry their conditions

Previously a ghost was just a line through the province. If the ghost had been set in shallow ash with no crosswind and you were driving in deep ash, the comparison was meaningless and players told us so. Ghosts now store the conditions they were set in, and the game will only offer you a ghost from comparable conditions unless you ask for a harder one.

  • Sable Reach — long sweepers, high crosswind
  • Cinder Flats — short technical sequence, low visibility
  • Four cars, all available by finishing the provinces
  • Ghost matching by run conditions

Save data

Existing progress is untouched. Ghosts recorded before this update are kept but marked as legacy, because we cannot reconstruct the conditions they were set in.
