The WRC championship is the most challenging motor racing competition in the world.
With the new dynamic weather system, climatic conditions have true-to-life effects: rain and snowfall is now an important game feature as variable traction, different set-ups for each stage, tyre choice and shrewd use of the weather forecasting team all need to be considered.
The single-player Career mode has been rebuilt from the ground up: calendar management, R&D to improve performance, staff recruitment and management (mechanics, engineers, medical and weather teams, finance manager, etc.).
For multiplayer, weekly challenges and WRC eSports return, but the challenge and competition is now even stiffer.
With 50 teams, 14 rallies and over 100 special stages in the 2019 season, WRC 8 has the deepest content ever included in an off-road racing game.

Ford Escort MkII 1800 (1979)
Released Nov 19, 2019
DLC detailsFord is still active in the WRC as an official manufacturer, but it had already made history with its Ford Escort RS1800.

With a 4-cylinder 205hp engine, it offers a unique driving experience and is difficult to tame. As for the Porsche 911 GT3 RS RGT, it is a monster of power and technology. Thanks to its flat-six 500hp engine and unmistakable sound, there are no other cars quite like it.
