If your default technique is to bump and run with the throttle pegged, you will fail miserably. Again, be warned – Rallycross is crazy fun, but it’s also crazy hard. If Rallycross is your thing, DiRT Rally 2.0 features eight circuits and a bevy of cars pulled straight from the FIA World Rallycross Championship.
DIRT RALLY TRIAL
Custom and online events are part of the game, and Time Trial is where you’ll go to for practice and to dial in vehicle settings. You can also nix the team completely and run through different rally categories, starting with historic. The game offers several play modes, including the standard-issue career option that lets you build a team as you compete in rally events.

Combined with the exceptional mechanical sounds, it makes for a thrilling experience. It shines at higher speeds when weight transfer has the car dancing between left-right sweepers, wheel tugging properly in each direction before going scarily light when you miss the over crest call from your co-driver. The gameplay is enjoyable for those who prefer joysticks, but I absolutely love the control and feedback this sim generates through the G920. Gamers looking for an easy ride should heed this warning: DiRT Rally 2.0 is a gloriously unforgiving sim racer as opposed to an arcade experience. I wasn’t kidding when I said too seriously. From the delicious V4 in the Lancia Fulvia to modern four-pots exploding with anti-lag and the iconic five-cylinder Audi Quattro S1, the aural experience alone is worth the price of admission. That last bit is important, because the sound is absolutely incredible. I’m running an Xbox One S with a Logitech G920 wheel and the six-speed add-on shifter, and it’s all connected to a 4K HDR television with surround sound.
