You cannot start a rally game feature without mentioning these two seminal titles. In no particular order… Colin McRae Rally and Colin McRae Rally 2.0 Without further ado then, here’s our definitive list of great rally games. Based on this ruleset, games that have off-road racing such as Forza Horizon 4 or DIRT 5 do not count. Other dirt-racing, such as rallycross, is acceptable, but if ‘stage rally’ isn’t included too, then it’s not a rally game to me. Which is why I enjoy a good virtual rally session – it’s the closest I’ll ever get.įor me, a ‘rally game’ must include point-to-point racing against the clock to count.

Professional drivers and co-drivers are a different breed. While those of us who are into racing video games like to think they’d be pretty handy down the local go-karting circuit, I know for certain that I wouldn’t be successful at rallying. It’s always worth the 4 am walk through a muddy forest in the dark. Beyond the Career Challenge, theres even more adrenaline-fuelled rally gaming with the titles 4WD Championship, Rally, Stages and Online gaming modes.Trust me when I say there is nothing like standing at the side of a rally stage and watching a turbocharged, four-wheel-drive, monster being thrashed by someone from France or Scandinavia. Offering real progression and the most diverse selection of rally cars to choose from, drivers will be pummeled through a staggering 300+ stages driving cars from 4-wheel drive, 2-wheel drive, 4-wheel Classics, Super 2-wheel, Rear Wheel, Distinctive and 4x4 classics.

The all-new Career Challenge is the steering wheel-gripping heart of Colin McRae Rally 2005 and has players hurtling through over 20 different classes of rally events including Challenges, Cups, SuperCups, Shields and Championships, earning the right to compete against the very best.The all-new Career Challenge is the steering wheel-gripping heart of Colin McRae Rally 2005 and has players hurtling through over 20 different classes of rally events including Challenges, Cups, SuperCups, Shields and Championships, earning the right to compete against the very best.
