Combining the power of the Unreal Engine with the DiRT Rally series physics, EA Sports WRC delivers longer, more detailed stages than previously possible, with 18* official FIA World Rally Championship locations and over 600km of unforgiving asphalt, gravel, and snow stages. The game also boasts 10 current WRC, WRC2, and Junior WRC vehicles and 68 of the most iconic rally cars spanning 60 years of the sport. Working together with official WRC teams and manufacturers, such as Ford, Toyota, and Hyundai, each vehicle is built to tackle every challenge they'll face throughout the season. The hybrid-powered 4WD Rally1 cars are some of the fastest in the sport's history, capable of incredible speeds while tackling gravity-defying jumps, deteriorating surfaces, and adverse weather.

The advanced Dynamic Handling System refines Codemasters’ original model and gives players the most realistic off-road experience to date. Taking feedback from drivers, including former FIA Junior WRC title contender and 2023 FIA European Rally Championship ERC3 champion, and game designer Jon Armstrong, players can choose a professional driver set-up mirroring the experience drivers encounter every race week. New players can personalise the handling, enabling them to make adjustments to help them master the ultimate player versus environment off-road challenge. The realism extends to audio, with each car intricately replicated, and new pace notes, including simplified commands for rookie drivers, give much-needed information to the player as they battle through each stage.

Electronic Arts reveals the launch of the Le Maestros Content Pack, the first DLC of the EA Sports WRC 24 Season Expansion, releasing on January 28, 2025.

The new content dives into the golden era of rally racing and pays homage to the successful French teams and drivers of the late 1990s to the 2010s. With 12 new historic stages, including Briançonnet in Monte Carlo and Fafe in Portugal, players will test their skills against challenging s-bends, narrow bridges, and classic hairpins amidst ever-changing terrain.

Le Maestros expands the WRC 24 car lineup with 6 new vehicles, featuring the championship-winning Volkswagen Polo R WRC 2013 and the agile Peugeot 206 S1600. Explore the full list of new cars here. With 17 liveries added for both new and existing cars, the legendary Citroën C2 S1600 and the iconic Ford Fiesta WRC 2019 liveries are included to ensure every race is memorable for fans of the sport.

Players can embark on a new adventure reliving iconic moments of WRC history with 16 exclusive moments, such as the Citroën Xsara Kit Car’s impressive 1-2 finish in Corsica, the dramatic 2010 victory of the Citroën C4 WRC at Rally Portugal, and more epic triumphs to replicate in-game.

“The French domination of the World Rally Championship has embedded itself in history with its unrivalled drama,” said Matthew Battison, Producer at Codemasters. “We’re excited to bring this exciting period of racing to life in-game with the Le Maestros DLC, which celebrates the rallies and the legends behind the wheel.”

The introduction of Builder fulfils the dream of those longing to build their very own modern-era rally car. Select the chassis, body shells, and all-important mechanical parts before customising the interior and exterior, finally personalising with the livery editor. Put the car through its paces and make any necessary adjustments before competing for the World Championship against the best competition WRC has to offer.
