TIMELESS

No Longer Delayed, The Modern Masters Update Is Out Now! Codemasters have dropped the latest update for DiRT Rally, which includes a number of new cars and a new class, as well as the latest handling updates and new features. The release was originally scheduled for last week, however Codemasters hit a roadblock with licensing one of the featured cars, which delayed the update for an uncertain amount of time. As many of you will have already known this week didn’t go entirely to plan. We had originally planned to release the Modern Masters pack however we were unable to do so as we hadn’t received all the necessary permissions to feature one of the cars. I know it’s been frustrating for you guys as the dates on the website have been changing and the messaging has been pretty mixed but suffice to say we are now extremely confident that we will be setting the update live early next week. Source: Codemasters Blog Thankfully, the update is indeed here this week. The Modern Masters update introduces two rally legends from the last decade, the Citroën C4 Rally 2010 and the Ford Focus RS Rally 2007, arguably two of the best cars in recent rallying history and famously driven by world class drivers such as Sébastien Loeb, Marcus Grönholm, and Mikko Hirvonen. With their powerful 2 litre turbocharged engines, they're sure to be good fun out on the dirt. Also being featured in the Modern Masters update is the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X and Subaru Impreza WRX STI, which will be part of the newly introduced R4 Class. With some of the richest rallying history between the manufacturers, it's not hard to understand why Codemasters have featured these two icons of modern rallying. Included with the additional content will be a number of new features, such as stage distances & elevations, manual headlights, and windscreen wipers. Additionally, the Group B 4WD and Group A classes will receive the latest handling updates, as part of Codemasters' commitment to Early Access, and a number of known issues have been fixed. DiRT Rally: Modern Masters is free to all Early Access players, and available now. Check out the trailer and pictures below. [gallery link=file" ids="3366,3365,3364,3363,3362,3361]
