There are three broad categories to DiRT Showdown’s stunning world of
action-sport racing. Players will use nitrous to blast past rivals and
negotiate courses filled with ramps, multiple routes and obstacles in
racing events. Gaming’s most advanced damage engine is pushed to its
limits in demolition derby events, where players smash and crash their
way to victory in jaw-dropping, bone-jarring style. Finally, in Hoonigan
events gamers can demonstrate their freestyle driving skill in huge
free-roaming stunt parks with new accessible controls. DiRT Showdown is
Codemasters’ most connected game ever – split-screen multiplayer, eight
player online racing, on and off-line quick-fire party games, and
YouTube integration all come as standard. Players can also issue new
‘Showdown Challenges’ to compete with friends in on and off-line modes.
In the career mode, globe-trotting Showdown players will travel from
Miami to San Francisco, London to Tokyo and other famous locations
earning the adulation of the crowd at hyper-energised, frenzied,
unsanctioned race events. Over 50 different events across four
championships challenge gamers in a variety of conditions – sun, snow,
and rain – through the day and under the floodlights at night. With an
exciting mix of licensed and bespoke cars and powered by the EGO Game
Technology Platform for phenomenal graphical performance and stunning
damage, DiRT Showdown will be the new standard for arcade driving
delirium.
