Codemasters has introduced some new characters to Dirt Rally. The Citro n C4 Rally 2010 and the Ford Focus RS Rally 2007, both fearsome competitors in the 2000s class, are now available in-game. What are their motivations? Do they have any ulterior motives? Will they gel with the rest of the game's cast? I don't know. All I can do is post this trailer showing them alongside a selection of their fellow castmates teasing their appearance in a slow-mo montage.
"At their peak, these cars reigned supreme with their 2 litre turbo charged engines and highly sophisticated differentials," explains the press release. So they're a classy bunch, it seems.
The other supporting characters are from the R4 class: the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X and the Subaru Impreza WRX STI 2011. No doubt that'll be a delicious rivalry to look forward to.
Back in April, we charged Andy with tackling the high drama of Dirt Rally's initial Early Access release. Since then, it's grown significantly through a number of updates.
