Get the all the DiRT® on rally and see the first gameplay footage with the debut DiRT 3 developer diary video

Gameplay footage revealed, rally content unveiled and fans questions answered in the first in a series of Q&A developer diaries

16th November (10am UK) – Today Codemasters® is proud to release the first in a series of DiRT® 3TM Q&A developer diaries for the highly-anticipated, critically acclaimed sequel to 2009’s million-plus seller, Colin McRaeTM: DiRT 2 (metacritic:87). The developer diary features the first gameplay footage, taken from early pre-alpha code, and dishes all the dirt on the biggest, most content rich racer ever to roar out of Codemasters Studios. The video is now playing at www.facebook.com/dirt3game.

Viewers are taken behind the scenes of DiRT 3, as key development talent introduce the game, answer questions from fans and hone their real-world driving skills by racing Escort Mk IIs around the forests of Wales at the Phil Price Rally School. The developer diary also reveals the first DiRT 3 gameplay footage, showing the iconic Audi Sport Quattro Rallye tearing through a forest stage at the new Finland rally location.

The video reveals the huge amount of rally content to feature in the game, with the discipline accounting for 60% of its extensive career mode. DiRT 3’s exhaustive car list includes the current 2010 WRC Cars, the Ford Focus RS WRC and Citroen C4 WRC, and, for the first time in a videogame, will introduce the 2011 Ford Fiesta RS WRC. In addition to the cars competing at the highest level of contemporary Rally, the extensive car list will star over 50 licensed off-road vehicles spanning 50 years of the sport, including classic racers like the Lancia Super Delta HF Integrale and the Mini Cooper S 1275. With rally stages set across three continents, including the addition of all-new locations Finland, Kenya and Michigan, players will learn to master the conditions on tarmac, gravel and snow in dry and wet conditions for the most authentic rally experience.

The Developer Q&A: Part 1 - Rally is the first in a planned series, each of which will focus on a different area of the game. Fans can submit questions for inclusion in future videos and keep up to date with the latest news, screens and videos straight from the studio by visiting http://www.facebook.com/dirt3game and http://www.twitter.com/dirt3game.

Coming Q2 2011, DiRT 3 will boast more cars, more locations, more routes and more events than any other game in the series. With more than double the track content of 2009’s hit, players will enjoy a career as an elite professional driver, competing in off-road racing events on the intense, weather-beaten rally stages of Europe, Africa and the US and pushing car control to the limit in all-new Gymkhana inspired showpiece challenges.

Set to raise the bar for authentic and accessible off-road racing again, DiRT 3 is now in development at Codemasters Studios for a 2011 release for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft®, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and PC Games For Windows® LIVE.
Platform: PS3 / Xbox 360

It's really nice to see and hear that that 60% of the career mode will be staged rally events. That will be a lot better than what Dirt 2 did. Dirt 2 was still fun, but most people playing a rally game want true rally events not these single race sections, or rally cross, or the baja circuit racing. Yeah, it's cool as a side diversion, but save that for another career type mode in the game.

Dirt was great. Dirt 2 was awful. This looks to be going back to the sim routes of the first game. Shame there is no WRC license.
