From November 2021, through a contract between Gameloft and Netflix, Netflix acquired the publishing rights for the game and started hosting Asphalt Xtreme servers for the mobile versions of the game, and re-released the app on the Google Play Store and App Store.

Unlike the previous games, different types of vehicles had significant effects on gameplay.

Players could extend their infected time by performing aerial stunts and drifting, something not possible in Asphalt 8.

The cars were divided into five classes and seven categories, and their performance was determined by the Rank rating feature, carried over from Asphalt 8.

The soundtrack for Asphalt Xtreme featured artists such as Rise Against, Eagles of Death Metal, Finger Eleven, Nothing But Thieves, The Dead Weather, Barns Courtney, Wavves, Cage the Elephant, Drenge, Battle Tapes, Ratatat, Monster Truck, DJ Tiësto, Swanky Tunes, and more.
