Open on Steam ↗US Steam price, checked 1 h ago
A content-rich Dirt Rally 2.0 successor with huge official stages and good feedback, but ugly, poorly optimized and abandoned. EA's anti-cheat blocks launching for many, so Linux and Steam Deck players should skip it.
Great for
Rally fans who want long official WRC stages and lots of cars at a sale price, on wheel or controller
Main risk
EA anti-cheat and server checks may stop the game launching, especially on Linux or Steam Deck

Recent positive reviews say the game runs better now and is great after launch problems, and cheap sale prices help. Low confidence about the exact cause.

“The biggest selling point of this game is the stages. Locations are officially licensed and the longest stages are around 3x longer than Dirt Rally 2.0.”
