Colin McRae DLC Coming to Dirt Rally 2.0 in March

Codemasters has announced a special batch of DLC for Dirt Rally 2.0 celebrating the career of late Scottish rally legend Colin McRae. The Colin McRae ‘FLAT OUT’ pack will be available from March 24, 2020 on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. The pack will be free to Deluxe Edition owners or players who have purchased any full season pack. It’ll be available as a separate purchase for any other interested players. The ‘FLAT OUT’ pack features a new Scottish location – Perth and Kinross – with 12 routes, plus 40 scenarios inspired by moments through McRae’s career. Also included is McRae’s iconic Subaru Impreza S4 Rally and the lesser-known Subaru Legacy RS (which carried McRae to his first WRC rally victory in New Zealand in 1993). In total, nine cars McRae is famous for driving throughout his career will feature in the scenario mode.

McRae was killed in a helicopter accident in 2007. IGN called Dirt Rally 2.0, which launched back in February 2019, a first-rate return to the more serious side of Codemasters’ off-road catalogue and “the premier rally simulator of the modern era.” [ignvideo width=610 height=374 url=https://ift.tt/2GxHjPN] [poilib element="accentDivider"] Luke is Games Editor at IGN's Sydney office.
