DiRT Rally 2.0 is the next installment of the series that allows you to take part in virtual rallies. The game is characterized by a very high level of realism. It is the responsibility of experienced developers from Codemasters, who have been consistently developing the cycle since its inception.

Mechanics

DiRT Rally 2.0 is a realistic rally simulator. The game gives us the opportunity to drive one of the dozens of well-known off-road vehicles (e.g. VW Polo GTI R5, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X, Citroen C3 R5, Chevrolet Camaro GT4.R) and compete for the title of the best driver. The game also allows you to run your own team - including hiring employees and developing your garage.

A demanding driving model takes into account factors such as road surface, weather and even gravel, which accumulates on the tires, affecting their grip. Real-world support systems such as traction control, track stabilization and ABS help players in their efforts. Cars are also damaged while driving and may even refuse to obey altogether. All vehicles can of course be tuned, adjusting the specific parameters to your expectations. A high level of realism means that success or failure can be determined by one mistake.

DiRT / WRC Game Series

Series DiRT is the direct successor to the series Colin McRae Rally, launched in 1998 by Codemasters. When in 2004 the series' patron Colin McRae abandoned WRC racing in favor of the Dakar Rally and the X-Games series, the developers decided to change the direction of its development, enriching the game with off-road rallies and increasing the range of available vehicles to include off-road cars, trucks and rovers. The new game also received a significant name DiRT.
