Rallycross is being introduced to DiRT Rally today, Codemasters has announced, with the arrival of the first World RX update.
The update introduces three new rallycross cars, two official circuits – the UK’s Lydden Hill and Sweden’s Holjes – and a brand new World RX Career mode.
Simultaneous online multiplayer has not been introduced in today’s update, however, with that due to arrive in a second World RX update coming at a later date.
Take a look below for a brief look at the changes found in today’s update, or head through to the DiRT Blog for the complete list.
- Embark on a new World RX Career and Custom Events
- Two new circuits, Höljes, Sweden and Lydden Hill, England both with three routes each
- Official FIA Rallycross Championship drivers, cars and liveries
- Anti-cheat stuff which will stop the small few from messing up our leaderboards. Our next step is to tell your mum you’ve been cheating – don’t say we didn’t warn you
- Ability to identify your device as a wheel if you own one which isn’t supported yet
- A brand new DiRT Daily Event type where you’ll be competing against the community Delta
- Ability to repair a puncture mid-stage
- Ability to disable replays in the options (this should help fix the stuttering some users experience)
- Ability to remove the drivers arms without causing him to bleedout
- Now have the ability to return the wheel back to zero degrees when your car is reset
