Developed by Bigben and Kylotonn, the new WRC 8 has been improved in every aspect:

  • richer graphics
  • more technical tracks
  • more fluid radar notes
  • more complete career mode.

We also expect a greater fidelity in the reproduction of the physical characteristics of the vehicle.

The developers have added some random elements to the driving experience, improving the realism of the game thanks to a new management of the weather conditions.

Thanks to the presence of the new procedural engine that will take care of generating the weather effects faced by users, the developers promise to make driving dynamics even more realistic and the physical engine used to manage the behavior of the tires according to the climate and, of course, to the types of land faced.
