About Blur

Blur is the ultimate Powered-up racing experience, dropping you into electrified action with a mass of cars targeting the finish line and battling each other as they trade paint. Travel the globe from L.A. and San Francisco to Spain, the UK and more to take on the best curves the streets have to offer. Make use of an arsenal of Power-ups like nitro speed boosts, shock attacks, defensive shields, and landmines to beat your rivals across the finish line. You choose how and when to use your armory of Power-ups for ultimate impact in a race where the outcome is never certain. Blur's story unfolds through a unique community-based social network interface that includes 4 player split-screen multiplayer and online multiplayer.
