Looking good, my kind of racer (Rally with a push towards the arcade side of things).

Off-topic: I used to own DiRT 2 on PC but lost access to it due to the digital distribution company shutting down/losing access to the original email account I used for it. Is there anywhere online I can purchase this game? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Must be a licensing thing?

This is great. As someone who over-reacted and screamed into the night sky 'NOOO WHERE'S DIRT RALLY 3.0' when news of Dirt 5 started circulating this makes me really happy. Dirt Rally 2.0 was one of my favourite games of last year but I'm hyped beyond hell for Dirt 5 now too. Two teams, sharing knowledge but individually making their own game. Similar to the Forza teams I guess.

Buzzing!

To bad there wont be any VR support. Even if its more arcade game it would be a blast in VR.

I prefer DR as well but I hope they find success in this 2 game business model. I'll be keeping an eye on D5, maybe I'll pick it up.

So how arcadey is this going to be? Like Motorstorm, or only partly like Project Gotham Racing?

Can they just rip off the career mode and handling from Rallisport 2? Cheers.

Hopefully this'll turn out to be RSC3. Suits me fine.

I enjoyed Dirt 4. Fun arcade racing. Bizarre choice to remove rallying from Dirt 5 though, completely killed my interest.

I was pretty sure they said it'll have rally. It'll just have way more to fit the Dirt name. I'm not sure where you're seeing they removed rally racing.

I read it somewhere this week. I'd be delighted to be wrong.

No traditional rally listed here in the game modes:
