Codemasters has revealed that there is a “different” DiRT game in development with one of its external teams (via Push Square).
The support team for DiRT Rally 2.0 will continue to exist, and the social spaces for the game’s community will stay the same. However, players will be looking forward to a new offering, and perhaps one that deviates from the simulation experience. “Prepare to see something new roar to life in the world of DiRT, very soon. Developed by a separate Codemasters studio to the DiRT Rally team, we’re incredibly excited about what’s around the corner. We invite you to be part of a brand new experience, while also continuing to enjoy our definitive Rally offering,” it stated.
The developer appears to be gearing up for an announcement for this new game, having updated its social media accounts to reflect a new colour scheme. In addition, a blog post from Codemasters confirms that this new project will not be at the expense of DiRT Rally 2.0. “Whilst there are no plans for additional Seasons for DiRT Rally 2.0, some minor updates and surprises are planned,” it explained. “By no means are we saying this is “the end” for DiRT Rally 2.0. Daily/Weekly/Monthly Challenges live on, Clubs are stronger than ever and you have plenty of esports action to look forward to.”
Whilst one journey remains FLAT OUT, another journey is about to begin.
