Game has graphical issues on all cut scenes. Low frame rates during racing but it’s playable. Some freezing here and there. Toggling and u toggling low power mode seems to help when the game freezes.

- The introductory videos (such as the EA intro or the Razón and Cross cinematics) have glitches and issues, but this does not affect gameplay. - The "Campaign" works up to a certain point, where the audio cuts out and the game subsequently freezes (see last attached image). - The "Challenge Series" mode works almost entirely (I haven't finished it completely). - Achievement unlocking and online play have not been verified.

Game loads & goes ingame completely, but FMVs are completely messed up and the sound is crackly/slow. Game runs at around 1/2 speed on iPhone 17, but is fully playable regardless of the framerate. Sometimes slow to load assets in (e.g road surfaces, car meshes etc).
