Dirt 3 is a rally racing game. Just like expected, most time is spent in races which, at least in most scenarios, are set in offroad environments. The main difference to other racing events is, that the player drives not alone, but has a front-seat passenger with him, who announces when to turn. The game features overall 98 courses, but some of those are just variations of the same. Also on board is the iconic ability to turn back time after screwing up. In contrast to Dirt 2, in this installment there are other playing modes than the career available, e.g. a single race. But the career is still the heart of the game; here the player tunes his car, participates in races and earns experience points, which are used to unlock new cars. There are six different race modes to solve during the career; e.g. regular races and "trailblazer" (no passenger available). Two of those are newly introduced: drift tournaments and Gymkhana, which are basically confined areas with a lot of stunt opportunities - the goal is to perform as many as possible in a limited time. Additionally every mode has special tricky bonus goals which reward more experience when fulfilled.

The quartet of cars coming to DIRT 5 in the Uproar Content Pack restore four of the most exciting and eye-catching machines from our previous extreme off-road title, DiRT Showdown. First up, the Duke Coupe – a powerful long-wheelbase car with hot rod stylings and huge tyres, ready to conquer DIRT 5’s routes in its own unique style from the Rally GT Class. In the RallyCross class, meanwhile, the Zenden Cup is a perfect addition, with its compact boxy chassis and aerodynamic flair housing a powerful engine – the ideal mix of speed and handling for our off-road events. The Jackson Adventurer, meanwhile, is a bigger beast for the Unlimited Class that’s low on the unnecessary extras and big on shock absorbers, suspension and speed for those big jumps. Finally, the Jackson Eulogy – the most unique of our new cars, with an estate chassis decked out with custom details and performance upgrades, dropping into our Classic Rally class. Each of the four cars will feature in a new thread of 25 Career events for all players to take on, available in the new ‘Uproar’ option in Career. Every event either takes place at night-time or features dynamically changing weather that includes night racing, meaning a fresh test of your nerve, reaction and skill. The 25 events will take you across the globe in new race scenarios for New York, Nepal, Italy, South Africa and more locations.
