DiRT Rally Console Release and 1.1 Update

Get Your Rallying Trousers On, It's Time To Hit The DiRT!

Today, DiRT Rally comes to consoles! Times will be beaten, cars will be smashed, controllers will be thrown at walls as Xbox One and PlayStation 4 players get to experience the frustration that PC players have been enjoying on Steam for almost a year. We have seen first-hand how Codemasters have developed this authentic and intense rally game into an instant future classic as a Steam Early Access title and now it's full release is hitting consoles!

 

Meanwhile PC players aren't being left out, with a a 17GB update full of bug fixes and improvements being rolled out today, as well as the surprise release of Codemasters telemetry tool - CREST. Codemasters RaceNet Evaluation and Statistics Tool (CREST) allows you to compare your ghosts to the fastest time's ghost with some very detailed analysis. You can compare sector times, racing line, braking, acceleration, speed, and gear selection. You'll be able to view your laps with a top-down aerial view, to see what you're doing right and what you're doing wrong. Formula 1 level analysis for your DiRT times.
