The moment many of you have been waiting for is here, Wales Rally has finally made it to DiRT Rally 2.0.

Situated in the hilly regions of Wales, this rally pushes drivers to the limit as they navigate the often wet and slippery forest sections and high speed sections in between. Receiving little traffic aside from forestry maintenance, the road surface is made up of heavier gravel on a hard-packed road base creating an unforgiving rally for drivers with many hazards dotted around the course.

Wales Rally is accessible in-game through My Team, Custom Championships and Time Trial. If you are already in an active Championship you’ll have to either complete or abandon it in order to have Wales Rally selectable in the next one.

You can either watch it above or on our YouTube channel where you’ll find additional DiRT Rally 2.0 content.




Wales Rally is available as part of the DiRT Rally 2.0 Deluxe Edition, the DiRT Rally 2.0 Deluxe Content Pack and as standalone DLC. Deluxe Content owners also have access to every other car and location released in Seasons 1 and 2, as well as regular in-game Credit bonuses, exclusive liveries and special Events.

• New Club Events
  
• FIA World RX goes to Sweden
  
• News on Update 1.6

Welcome to July, and two new cars releasing today in DiRT Rally 2.0. Two classics from the annals of rallying history join the roster today, along with liveries and Credits for Deluxe Content owners.



Porsche 911 SC RS

Producing 290hp, the Porsche 911 SC RS was and still is one of the most recognisable racing cars in the world. Modified for rally, this car featured tougher suspension, a wider body and event specific add-ons. The 911 was capable of taking the fight to its AWD rivals on a regular basis.

• Max Power: 290 bhp
  
• Max Weight: 959 kg
  
• Engine: 2994 cc, 6 cylinders, Naturally-Aspirated
  
• Gearbox: 5 Speed – Manual
  
• Drivetrain: RWD

Lancia 037 Evo 2

The last RWD car to win a World Championship, the Lancia 037 was a legend of Group B rallying. The mid-engined RWD monster made use of its supercharged powerplant, producing around 325hp, taking on the mighty Audi and winning in 1983. The Lancia 037 was succeeded by the 4WD Lancia Delta S4, another legendary car you can drive in DiRT Rally 2.0.

• Max Power: 330 bhp
  
• Max Weight: 959 kg
  
• Engine: 2111 cc, 4 cylinders, Supercharged
  
• Gearbox: 5 Speed – Manual
  
• Drivetrain: RWD

Both the Porsche 911 SC RS and the Lancia 037 Evo 2 are available as standalone DLC and as part of DiRT Rally 2.0 Season 2. If you’ve got the Deluxe Edition of the game these cars will be waiting for you, and if not you can upgrade to the Deluxe Content Pack below to get all content from Seasons 1 and 2:

Hello everyone.

We recently updated DiRT Rally 2.0 to Version 1.5, and subsequently 1.5.1 a few days later.

Here is a short overview of what was changed/added in Version 1.5:

• Club support added to Freeplay.
  
• Visual improvements made to rain effects.
  
• Service Areas will appear correctly in Weekly and Monthly Challenges.
  
• Monthly Challenge Leaderboards adjusted to show total Event times instead of individual Stage times.
  
• Elite and Master AI difficulty adjusted in My Team Rally Events to provide a fairer transition upwards from Pro.
  
• Start-line AI behaviour adjusted at Lohéac Bretagne circuit.
  
• AI cars will now be washed after Rallycross races.
  
• Notification added for when a player completes research on a car’s final engine upgrade in My Team.
  
• Chase cameras adjusted to reduce camera clipping into roadside objects.
  
• Non-English language co-driver volume increased.
  
• Corrections to some non-English language co-driver calls.
  
• General stability improvements and minor bug fixes.

Version 1.5.1 had the following change:

• Resolved a "Content not Installed" error which would occur when Latvia RX was added to the game client but not available to play before release.

If you come across a bug or issue, it would be of great help if you posted the following information on the Codemasters Forums (link below):

• Device information (CPU/GPU etc.).
  
• Whether you're a Standard Edition or Deluxe edition user.
  
• Where the bug happened.
  
• Have you been able to reproduce the bug?
  
• If you have been able to reproduce the bug, post as clearly as possible the steps you went through to trigger it.
  
• Screenshots or video would be nice too but a detailed description is often good enough.
