It’s very similar to Codemasters’ F1 series games in terms of talent tree style progression, if you’ve seen that before, and is very reminiscent of building up your characters talents in an RPG.

Take worn tyres into a stage and you’ll find yourself unable to take corners with as much speed, since you won’t have the grip, and a quick change of weather can quickly spell disaster for your times if you’re caught unaware of the heavens opening and ruining any semblance of stopping power you previously had.

With it they’ve brought a whole host of improvements and new features to the series, including a new handling model. After taking a years hiatus from the series, developer Kylotonn Games have returned to the WRC mantle to bring us WRC8.
