Dirt 3 is Rallying onto store shelves in 2011

Posted by: 8/7/2010

The Colin McRae Rally franchise has been one of my all time favorites since it first released in the late 90’s. Last year’s Dirt 2 was a smash hit and made me grin from ear to ear. Codemasters has released a trailer during this year’s X-Games which hints as to what we will see in the final game when it releases sometime in 2011 on PS3, 360 and PC.

For now Codies writes on their official game page:

Coming 2011, DiRT 3 will boast more cars, more locations, more routes and more events than any other game in the series, including over 50 rally cars representing the very best from five decades of the sport. With more than double the track content of 2009’s hit, DiRT 3 will see players start at the top as a professional driver, with a top-flight career in competitive off-road racing complimented by the opportunity to express themselves in Gymkhana-style showpiece driving events.

As players race to elevate their global standing, DiRT 3 delivers mud, sweat and gears world over: from the intense weather-beaten rally stages of Europe, Africa and the US, to executing performance driving showcases and career challenges where car control is pushed to spectacular limits. 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.

Enjoy the awesome trailer below, yes – there is snow! Finally.
