We go hands-on with EA SPORTS WRC ahead of its PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S release date in November.
Since acquiring the WRC licence from French developer Kylotonn, EA and Codemasters’ long-awaited follow-up to 2019’s DiRT Rally 2.0 has been highly anticipated. The game retains much of what made its predecessor popular, with enjoyable physics, genre-leading sounds, and a full service park. All 13 locations of the 2023 season, as well as bonus locations based on popular rallies, will be included in the game. Additionally, all manufacturers from the WRC, WRC2, and WRC3 classes will be featured, along with a comprehensive list of historic rally cars. The game also introduces new features such as regularity rallies and online moments scenarios. However, the switch to Unreal Engine has caused some performance issues, requiring a powerful PC for optimal gameplay. The game will be released on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, excluding last-gen consoles. Despite the performance issues, the game is visually stunning and highly praised by colleagues.
