News: Codemasters latest entry into the Dirt franchise has arrived and will test your driving skills.

Dirt Rally 2.0 is now available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. To help celebrate the launch Codemasters has released a launch trailer which you can see below. The new trailer showcases the breadth of challenge on offer: from piloting legendary rally cars through the fast and flowing mixed surfaces of Poland, to fighting for first place in an FIA World Rallycross Championship supercar, to conquering tricky weather conditions in the Porsche 911 RGT Rally Spec. With new features including improved handling, stage degradation, and tire choice, Codemasters has promised that DiRT Rally 2.0 brings the most immersive and truly off-road racing experience ever.

Codemasters’ SVP Product Development, Clive Moody, said of the game: “DiRT Rally 2.0 builds on the challenge thrown down by the original DiRT Rally and delivers the toughest challenge in the DiRT franchise. The combination of enhanced handling with each individual car and improved weather systems, alongside the new track degradation, makes every stage feel completely different. Every corner in every location has its own personality, requiring drivers to remain focused and determined from start to finish. Aim for a clean stage, but failing that just try to get to the end!”

In addition to the content available at launch, Codemasters recently announced additional content available through Season 1, starting on March 12:

Week 1: ŠKODA Fabia Rally, Citroën C4 Rally

Week 3: Monte Carlo Rally, Special Livery

Week 5: BMW M1 Procar Rally, Opel Manta 400, Special Livery

Week 7: Sweden Rally

Week 9: Ford Focus RS Rally 2007, Subaru Impreza, Special Livery

Week 11: Germany Rally

Players who pre-ordered or who buy the Deluxe Edition will receive this Season One content as part of their purchase, plus Season Two which contains a similar level of content and features as part of their Season Pass. The retail versions of the DiRT Rally 2.0 Day One Edition includes the Porsche 911 RGT Rally Spec along with early unlocks for the Fiat 131 Abarth Rally and Alpine Renault A110 1600 S. Day One or Standard Edition players will have the opportunity to purchase each season and piece of content separately from their digital store of choice as well.
