Following on the success of the original Dirt as well as a decade of
videogame development in partnership with the late Colin McRae, Dirt
2 explores various disciplines of off-road racing. Dirt
2 features a roster of contemporary off-road events, taking players to
the most diverse and challenging real-world environments. This World Tour has
players competing in aggressive multi-car and intense solo races at
extraordinary new locations, from canyon racing and jungle trails to city
stadium-based events.
Features:
- Powered by the third generation of the EGO Engine's award-winning racing
game technology, Dirt 2 benefits from tuned-up car-handling
physics system and new damage engine effects.
- Showcases a spectacular new level of visual fidelity, with cars and tracks
twice as detailed as those seen in Race Driver: GRID.
- Dirt 2's garage houses a best-in-class collection of
officially licensed rally cars and off-road vehicles, specifically selected to
deliver aggressive and fast paced racing. Covering seven vehicle classes,
players will be given the keys to powerful vehicles right from the off. In
Dirt 2 the opening drive is the Group N Subaru; essentially
making the ultimate car from the original game the starting point in the sequel
and the rides just get even more impressive.
- In addition to the World Tour, Dirt 2 will come complete
with full online functionality that will be core to the overall experience, with
head-to-head competitive online play and new social features to engage the
racing community.
- Headlined by Colin McRae, honoring the life of the rally legend. Colin
McRae, who consulted on the series for over ten years, tragically died in a
helicopter accident in September 2007. The decision to continue the famous
series bearing his name was made jointly between the McRae family and
Codemasters.
