Read on to discover which Star Wars locations in Tunisia are worth visiting, and how to get between them. Many of the original sets used to film Star Wars in Tunisia still remain standing today and have become some of the most popular attractions for tourists in the country.

Fancy seeing what happens when flimsy Formula Ford racers go up against a herd of lolloping Stadium Super Trucks on snowy London streets at midnight? It'll be conjured up quicker than you can say 'massive insurance claim'.If you are a fan of the Star Wars film series, then you are probably aware that main character Luke Skywalker hails from the planet of Tatooine, a dusty desert world inhabited by strange creatures and presided over by twin suns.īut you might not be aware that Tatooine is a real place, brought to life by real-world locations in Tunisia….in an area known as Tataouine.Īlthough a few scenes set on Tatooine were filmed in Death Valley in the United States, the majority of desert scenes in the original Star Wars were filmed in Tunisia, with subsequent films in the series also returning to shoot footage in the country. It actually feels a touch sterile after the deeper involvement of the story mode, but it's absolutely necessary to add longevity past that first feverish weekend of play.Īlso welcome in that regard is the race creator option, accessible in both single and 22-car multiplayer, which breaks open the toolbox and allows you to mix and match cars, circuits and game modes with impunity.
Once you've finished the soap opera after a few hours, there's a more conventional and substantial career mode to add more meat to the game's bones. What's more, it all plugs into the brilliant Nemesis system from the previous game, meaning the events of the plot will affect who your friends and enemies are on track. Every event during this storyline feels more meaningful because you recognise the names of your most hated rivals as you lunge triumphantly past them at a hairpin. Most importantly Driven To Glory offers the sort of connective tissue between races that was sorely lacking from the last Grid game and is rare in racing games in general. That said there are a few moments that'll make you cringe if you're a seasoned viewer of motorsport – not least one of the characters casually wearing a detached HANS device like some sort of bizarre fashion accessory. Dialogue is naturalistic and some clever virtual set technology borrowed from Star Wars means the actors feel rooted in the game's world of paddocks and pitlanes. While the entire thing could easily have been crashingly embarrassing, it's actually written and executed surprisingly well. It's even called Driven To Glory, which is probably about as close as the legal department would allow them to get.
Building on the solid arcade racing foundation of 2019's Grid reboot, Legends adds a substantial new story mode complete with Drive To Survive-style live action cutscenes starring accomplished actors, including Sex Education's Ncuti Gatwa. If, like us, you feel like half the fun of Formula 1 is all the bickering that goes on before and after the races then Grid Legends, out now on Xbox, Playstation and PC, may well be the game for you.
