DiRT Rally has wiped all opposition off the track (and even DiRT 4 wasn’t able to get close to it…), and now, the sequel is coming.
DiRT Rally 2.0 will have six official locations (New Zealand, Spain, Poland, United States, Argentina, Australia), and on top of them, due to being the official FIA World Rallycross Championship game, we’ll also get eight WRX locations, as well as the 2018 season’s cars in Codemasters’ next product.
However, we had to raise our eyebrows how the press release detailed the pre-order bonus and the Deluxe Edition far more than the game itself: „All pre-orders editions of DiRT Rally 2.0 will include access to the amazing Porsche 911 RGT Rally Spec as a bonus vehicle to use on the stages. In addition there will also be a DiRT Rally 2.0 Deluxe Edition which also includes the first two seasons of post-launch additional content, each with three locations (split between rally and rallycross) and five early vehicles unlocks (Ford Escort MkII, Lancia Stratos, Subaru Impreza 1995, AUDI Sport quattro S1 E2 and Ford Fiesta OMSE SuperCar Lite). The Deluxe Edition will also allow players to get their hands on the game four days early, launching on 22nd February 2019 and also includes upgraded starter cars for My Team, in-game bonuses and high reward events.”
So, it looks like DiRT Rally goes towards the games-as-a-service model with the seasons. The game will launch on February 26 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, but the Deluxe Edition will be available from February 22 – the same day when Anthem, Days Gone, or Metro: Exodus will launch. That day will be killing wallets left and right…
