Rockstar
Games Social Club Brings on Midnight Club Los Angeles
Unlock the Audi R8, create and
share user-created content, and rate the competition at Rockstar’s gaming
community home on the web
The Rockstar Games Social Club is an
online hub for gaming with leader boards, special rewards, competitions and
more. Midnight Club Los Angeles aims to deliver even more gaming goodness
through the R* Social Club by offering a host of new ways to immerse yourself in
the non-stop driving, customizing and racing when you’re away from your console.
With online tournaments, video content creation and sharing, rich stat-tracking
capabilities, and the chance to unlock the powerful Audi R8 in the game, joining
the Rockstar Social Club will complete Midnight Club Los Angeles experience.
Launch Features
-
The Driving Test – complete a
series of in-game challenges as you play Midnight Club Los Angeles, as you
work towards three different classes of driver’s licenses. Each class of
license unlocks a different in-game item — the Class A license exclusively
unlocks the ultimate prize, the red hot Audi R8. -
Rate My Ride – Midnight Club Los
Angeles boasts an incredible array of customization options, from rims and
custom paints to wide body kits and custom parts – the choices you can make in
personalizing your vehicle are nearly limitless. The next step is to share
your creations with your friends, and find out how you rank. Upload your
vehicle in-game, and it will be added to a constantly changing display of
rides up for review. View the selection in game or via the Social Club, vote
for your favorites and see where your ride ranks on the worldwide leader
board. In-game you also have the opportunity to purchase your favorite vehicle
designs. -
Hollywood Auto – This is the place
to size up your next in game purchase. All of the cars and motorcycles from
the game are available for your perusal online in the showroom. Here you can
see which ones statistically are most popular, most driven and which have won
the most races online. You can also download beauty shots of your favorite
vehicles from the in-game collection. -
Screenshot Gallery – You’ve
explored the camera mode, snapped glossy close-ups of your custom vinyl
designs, captured awesome crashes and posed your favorite vehicles in front of
all those breathtaking Los Angeles vistas. Now upload them to the Social Club,
where you can organize your shots and share your selects with all of your
friends. -
Player Profile – Keep an eye on
your personal stats, and those of your friends, through the Social Club’s
Player Profile system. Your profile is fully customizable: choose which stats
you want to display, personalize the page layout’s theme and decorate with
your favorite screenshots. -
Multiplayer Leaderboards –
Incredibly deep leaderboards and stat tracking means you can see how you and
your friends stack up in almost every conceivable way at any time of the day.
Get ready for competition on a whole new level.
And that’s just the beginning.
There’s much more to come, including a hosted tournaments series, the LA FM
music player and the exclusive Midnight Club Los Angeles screenshot music video
generator. Look for additional content and enhanced user features to be added to
the Rockstar Games Social Club experience regularly, in support of Midnight Club
Los Angeles, Grand Theft Auto IV and many future Rockstar titles to come. Make
sure to check back regularly to see what’s new.
