Product overview

Everything worth knowing.

A detailed, evidence-led view of the product—not a generic sales summary.

WRC for PC is a rally car racing video game, also known as EA Sports WRC. It is named for the World Rally Championship, from which it takes its name. This is a sequel to a previous game, but this time it is under a new developer – and the game designer is an avid rally driver, so he has been able to bring a degree of authenticity to the game that even the best other rally racing games have not been able to capture. About the Game WRC features around 78 rally cars from various categories of the real life championship for which the game is named. These include Pumas, the Hyundai i20N, the GR Yaris from Toyota and many more. There are also 68 classic rally cars for you to try out – unless you want to us Car Builder to create and customize your own car. Once you have chosen or created your perfect rally car, you can immediately hit over 200 driving stages from eighteen real rally circuits. This covers over 600 kilometres of terrain that varies from asphalt to gravel to snow. This will feel more challenging than it sounds as the tarmac psychics and changeable weather will make the vehicle respond differently according to the conditions at the time. Central Rally Europe is a latecomer to the locations, added – just as in life – in the 2023 WRC calendar. This rally starts in Prague and heads off in a challenging route through the Czech Republic, Lower Bavaria and Austria. Chile and Mexico are back, but New Zealand, Catalunya and Belgium are no longer featured. The weather conditions are a new addition to the gameplay, and driving the exact same route in the exact same car will feel very different when the season has changed, giving you, basically, four ways to play each stage and race. Extreme weather can blight your races too, with lighting, rain and snow all take their toll
