There are some other nifty new features as well. The multiplayer modes have two main parts: Explore and Global Events. In Explore, players can drop into sweet mountain ranges built by NASA date and Google Earth, and each time a personal best is made the game uploads a ghost of that run for friends to see. Players can also win mad cash and move up the leader board by taking down friends' ghosts, or if their ghost is good enough players can even win while away from their consoles. The Global Events mode can handle up to 100,000 live players at once with fully customizable events to go head-to-head against people from around in real-time.
