Dirt 5 is going to offer a lot for all players

Codemasters have released a new trailer for Dirt 5, that shows off a range of locations, modes and more, that players will get to experience when the game arrives this October, check it out.

There should be racing for all here as the series is offering up a lot of options, in fact there are 13 classes in total, so players will always find something to suit their driving style. Mastering front, rear and 4WD cars will prove invaluable, whether tackling Career mode or jumping into a split-screen race with friends.

“The trailer gives players an insight into the world of DIRT 5 and the breadth of content and features that await them,” said Robert Karp, DIRT 5 Development Director at Codemasters. “But we still have a few things under wraps including a feature never seen before in the DIRT series. If racing fans want some of the roughest terrain, extreme weather and thrills at every corner, then DIRT 5 delivers all of this and more.” 

On top of the car range, there are plenty of modes for people to enjoy, here are just a few of them:

  • Landrush – Circuit-based, rough terrain with jolting jumps and technically challenging sections. Weather and track conditions change on-the-fly during the event to mix-up this pack race mode.

  • Rally Raid – Controlling machines built for extreme off-road, Rally Raid challenges are point to point with split routes, where drivers can grab some serious air.

  • Ice Breaker – As the name suggests, players battle short circuits that take place entirely on ice. Throttle control and precise drifting are crucial to master this mode

  • Stampede – Hard, unforgiving natural landscape, built for rough-and-ready machines. The layout is unmarked with major undulations over mud and sand.

  • Path Finder – Another new game mode. Controlled speed and more strategy are the keys to success. Hardcore off-road terrain packed with steep jumps and rock-strewn paths.

  • Sprint – Amplified racing at its craziest. 900bhp, enormous wings and four different sized wheels. Left turns only on oval and circular tracks. One for the drifters.

  • Ultra Cross – Varied terrain and unpredictable circuit design. Classic rallycross amplified for the ultimate challenge.

Plus, the crazy world of Gymkhana makes its welcome return for the first time since DiRT Showdown. Players jump, drift and donut around purpose-built stunt arenas marked out with barrels, tyres, and cones. String together tricks to trigger multipliers to hit a target score within the time limit. Gymkhana is as much about style, as it is about substance.

The game is coming out this October for Xbox One, PC and PlayStation 4 and will hit both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X later in the year. A release for Stadia is also planned, but as usual, we don’t have that here, so it matters not.
