My reaction to a new EA SPORTS™ WRC game!

Watch the WRC World Champion Kalle Rovanperä grab the virtual steering wheel and put EA SPORTS WRC through its paces as he gives his first impression to Codemasters’ most authentic rallying game to-date.


WRC will feature over 200 rally stages with greater realism, fidelity, and detail than ever before along with 78 real-world rally cars, covering the entire history of the sport. The Dynamic Handling System is the most authentic and dynamic handling model the Codemasters team has built to date.




EA SPORTS™ WRC lets you build the car of your dreams in the all-new official video game of the FIA World Rally Championship, the first developed by the award-winning team behind the DiRT Rally series. Design and drive your dream rally car with the debut of Builder mode, race and overcome recent events alongside real-world highlights and nostalgic throwbacks in Moments mode, or battle the elements across dirt, snow, and asphalt in the pursuit of the perfect run.

I will say, the dust trail after the switch-back was really impressive visually.

[Protato]

I ve hardly ever seen a Finn showing so much enthusiasm for anything so that says something

[Werferharfer]

Real stages, track degradation and the car sound are the things that i most hyped about.

[weslleynereu]

That broken bumper caught me, seems muuch nicer than the damaged cars in dirt rally 2

[Schub]

Physics are looking here way better than in the last offiziell 10min gameplay👍👌!! Drifting and weight transfer seems to be right here👍👌👏🏻🥰

[JackTerry]

This video is way more impressive than the official 10 minute gameplay video we got last week. Driving physics show a lot more better on here, and great to see our first look at a little bit of damage

[The_Amateur_Hour]

Physics look better with kalle driving vs the initial gameplay video

[starksvensk]

Any other nationality: The feel of the car is so smooth, much like in real life, the action of the throttle on the gravel stages is very realistic, much like the physics and the breaking system.
Finnish: It's really sharp

I can't wait! I ordered mine early and will do some reviews when it's out. Thanks for the preview Kalle..

[tomasmenezes]

I think the only thing I’m disappointed is that rally ending crash let Kalle continue the stage, hope you can choose a more hardcore level of damage but yeah, other than that, looking good!

[leroydorenberg]

I hope they improved the rain graphics

[andymcguigan]

My fanatec csl DD is coming Thursday then i get early access on my birthday 🎂 Halloween haha 😂

[desperatecyclists]

Need more WRC drivers to test the game and compare their thoughts on driving realism.

This also will be very Useful for the developers to improve it in future to make the best rally sim

[gdshark]

If kalle gives it his approval then I’m ignoring the wrc generations fans coming here to put the game down cause EA publishing

[pirjoruuth]

Huikeeta päästä seuraamaan ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 Kiitos Kalle ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🌹🌹🌹

[yowanowich]

So did he say “it is sharp as the real car [and I can get really fast quickly]” or did he say “it is so sharp I wish the real car [reacted like that so I can get that fast]”. He basically attempted to give a statement as to how realistic the game felt to him but with the way he phrased it I am not sure now! 😂

[abcjelly]

i feel like i won’t b able to understand pace note callouts if i played a rally game & even irl 😄

[NamePend]

I will buy when it's vr. I know they can make a good game because dirt rally was quite good but the lack of real triple screen support and vr coming later is just sad for enthusiasts

[BRANDON.MUSTANG]

game looks nice in that crash your car should be too damaged to so wish realistic car damage effect it makes driver make more decision how fast you want to try like in this game same as always you can take all the risk whit out fear to go retire/race is done

[vlk]

the game looks amazing <3 so happy about pre purchasing this game
