WRC 8, the official video game of the FIA World Rally Championship, is now available for pre-orders. I have enjoyed the previous WRC games by Kylotonn, so I’m looking forward to seeing what they’ve introduced for the redesigned career mode, and the inclusion of 100 special stages set across 14 countries means this one of the biggest rally games to date. All this content along with having the official license makes WRC 8 a tantalising prospect for any WRC or rally fan!
As you can see from the screenshots and videos, it’s a beautiful looking game, and as long as they haven’t tampered with the excellent handling model from previous games too much, there is a lot of potential for WRC 8.
