Lastly, Heavy snow, which fills the course and your vehicle with icy snow. Heavy rain, which makes roads muddy and slippery. Weather conditions include Clear, bright, and sunny skies. My personal favorite would have to be the Pathfinder events as you don’t get to drive across 40-degree slopes much in other racing games.ĭirt 5 also allows you to choose the weather conditions and the time of day of your races. Lastly, we have Gymkhana where you need to perform tricks to earn points in an obstacle course. Pathfinder events is a point to point timed run on an unforgiving off-road course. Ice Breaker still has you doing laps but on an Icy and slippery racecourse. Land Rush, Ultra Cross, Rally Raid, and Stampede are pretty much the usual lap and point to point racing game modes. There are 7 race types in the game, each tied to a particular location or course.
Africa’s Cape Town stadium, Nepal’s Icy Roads, Xinsilong’s Bamboo filled forest in China and so much more have been created beautifully by the developers and are a joy to drive on with all their twist and turns, slippery slides, and exhilarating jumps. Spread over 9 different countries, there are over 50 locations to choose from. Performance and Handling are the only attributes you’ll have to worry about and I applaud this choice as it simplifies the process and lets you focus more on the racing than analyzing. Overall, these vehicles look great, they all handle pretty well, and speaking of handling, Dirt 5 has done away with all of the data analytics and car attributes and has opted to focus on just 2 essential ones for each of their vehicles. From Ford, Peugeot, Volkswagen, Aston Martin and many more are here. There are 13 classes overall, each with a handful of branded vehicles that you’ll get to choose from. The vehicles, that you’ll get to drive, in Dirt 5 come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and brands. The visuals in performance mode aren’t awful by any means, but you can really tell that there is a dip in graphical quality. Since I reviewed the game on a vanilla PS4, performance mode was the way to go. Performance mode prioritizes a stable frame rate over pretty graphics, while graphics mode does the opposite. You can tell that Dirt 5 was made with next-gen consoles in mind because at the jump it makes you choose between prioritizing performance or graphics. Dirt 5 is by no means a driving simulator, but a racing game that’ll truly make you feel like a badass. After a couple of retries, he then declared that the game was great and I couldn’t help but agree.
I handed the controller to my dad who hasn’t played a console game in years and seeing him navigate a Ford Raptor skillfully through tight and icy turns was such a sight to behold.
