DiRT Showdown Collides with 25th May Release Date

Those of you obsessed with bent bumpers and scratched paint work will probably want to pick up a copy of DiRT Showdown when it releases on 25th May in the UK and 29th May in the US.

The title steers the traditionally serious rallying series in a more raucous direction, focusing on arcade thrills and vehicle wrecking spills. If you’re still not sure you’ll like the new format, a demo will be released on the PlayStation Store in early May to give you a taste of two new single-player and multiplayer events.

Those that are convinced by the demo will be able to stump up the cash for the game’s enhanced Hoonigan Edition. This includes XP multipliers, in-game cash, additional car liveries and special packaging.

You can get a look at the game in action in the new trailer below. Alternatively, you can check out our hands-on DiRT Showdown preview for more impressions.
