A new DiRT game has been announced with an accompanying teaser trailer although it may not be the same type of rally game we’ve come to expect from the franchise.
It’s called DiRT: Showdown and it’s not being labelled as a true and direct sequel to DiRT 3. The trailer looks like the game will be similar to the old PSOne franchise, Destruction Derby. Although the game is being developed from the same DiRT team, it’s being touted to be an all new expereince.
Here’s what was said from the press release:
“There are three broad categories to DiRT Showdown’s action-sport racing. Players will use nitrous to blast past rivals and negotiate courses filled with ramps, multiple routes and obstacles in full-contact Racing events. Gaming’s most advanced damage engine is unleashed in Demolition Derby themed events where players smash and crash their way to victory in bone-jarring style. Finally, in Hoonigan events, gamers will send fans wild in huge stunt parks where accessible new controls offer every player the chance to become a freestyle driving hero.”
