Dirt Rally gets head-to-head multiplayer

While v0.7 introduces a bunch of new features.

Dirt Rally's latest update, which brings Codemasters' Early Access off-roader to v.0.7, introduces head-to-head multiplayer in its officially licensed FIA Rallycross events. It does plenty more besides, too.

There's an all-new circuit in the shape of the wonderfully monikered Hell in Norway, a real-life Rallycross circuit, and there are three new cars - the Citroen DS3, the Mini Countryman Rallycross and the Subaru WRX STI - added to the mix, alongside a host of tweaks and fixes to existing content. As with all the updates during Dirt Rally's Early Access, the new content and features are free to existing players.

Dirt Rally heads up a relatively exciting time for the discipline in video games, with the WRC series about to get a reboot and Codemasters' own game going from strength to strength.
