EA aren't making any more rally games, but there are alternatives
1 min read
Summary
Gaming giant EA has announced it’s pausing development of future rally racers, including the popular WRC and Dirt series.
The company, which acquired Codemasters, the series’ developer, has said the games have ‘reached the end of the road’ for the time being.
While disappointing to fans of the dirty motorsport, there is hope yet for the genre, with indie and lesser-known titles filling the gap left by the halt in development.
Indie game Art of Rally has gained particular acclaim, as has the illegal racing in My Summer Car.
The WRC games franchise, however, is set to continue in the hands of another developer, according to the FIA.
This comes as EA made 300-400 redundancies across the company this week amid rumoured studio closures.
