You may find this hard to believe, but most people don’t know what it’s really like to drive a rally stage, and this writer is no different. The driving in WRC 8 feels about as realistic as one can expect. Dynamic weather is perhaps less intense, but also realistic and can add a variable challenge to some stages. Rain realistically falls on the windshield, which also quickly piles up and generally makes visibility an issue, as would happen in real life. The extreme weather events, where the player is challenged to complete as much of a challenging stage in intense weather while using a crippled car, are showcase events that really allow the player to experience all that the KT Engine has to offer. Specifically, weather effects are more believable in WRC 8. While Dirt Rally 2.0 may have the slight edge in graphics (especially environment detail), WRC 8 is no slouch. It appears the KT Engine is used again, which seems to be made with rally racing in mind. WRC 8 certainly looks the part of a rally racer. Did the extra development time result in a better game, perhaps one that even gives Dirt Rally 2.0 a run for its money? A Good Look The then-yearly series had iteratively improved, but evidently developer Kylotonn wasn’t happy with that, as they took two years to deliver WRC 8. With 50 teams, 14 rallies and more than 100 special stages from the 2019 season, WRC 8 offers the most content ever in an off-road racing game.WRC 7 released in 2017 and averaged a 70 on Metacritic. In multiplayer mode, weekly challenges and eSports WRC are back and the competition is more intense than ever. In solo mode take on the new challenges of a completely overhauled, more realistic career mode, designed in conjunction with WRC drivers: schedule and activity management between rallies, research and development to improve the car, recruitment and management of your staff (mechanics, engineers, medical and weather teams, financial director, communication manager, etc.). Road grip changes during the race, cars need to be tuned specifically for each special stage, tyre choices and stock management need to be considered, and making proper use of the weather team to get the best advice… The weather is much more than a visual effect – now it's finally coming into its own, adding a whole new dimension to the game. With the new dynamic weather system developed for WRC 8, rain, snow and hailstorms have a bigger impact, resulting in a much more true to life simulation.
Drivers, co-drivers and technical staff have to constantly adapt to get the best from their cars and be the fastest on each surface, whatever the weather, both day and night. The WRC championship is the most difficult and unpredictable motorsport competition in the world.
