Off-topic, but has anyone else noticed a real increase in electric cars out on the road of late? Feels like we see a Tesla every 10 minutes at the moment. Anyhoo, WRC Generations is including an interesting new gameplay wrinkle with the addition of Rally1 Hybrid cars.
The press release reveals: “Experience driving sensations with much greater engine torque, delivering up to 30 per cent more power when accelerating. Drivers must also think about their strategy before the start of the stages to optimise the management of electrical power and the battery.” That does sound like fun.
The game’s due out on PS5 and PS4 from 13th October, and will be Nacon’s last officially licensed WRC effort, with EA Sports – and, specifically, its Codemasters teams – poised to take the wheel moving forwards.

This game has to be amazing. I'm not happy about EA acquiring Codemasters, but this will reveal if EA has destroyed Codemasters or not. I'm hopefully they haven't.
Not digging the commentary on the trailer.
Id imagine it will be a great game. I really like WRC10 and if they are building off that game with tweaks here and there i cant see it being bad. Will be the last officially licenced rally game i buy thats for sure. I wont buy anything thats been "EA'd" its already starting to show its head with the new F1 22
@tinCAT-zero This game would have been made well before EA bought them, so Id expect it to be decent codies quality.

This isn't the new rally game from Codies. This is the last game from the current WRC devs. I'm actually hopeful the WRC game from Codies will deliver in spades. As for the hybrid/electric rally cars... Meh is the best I can muster. Give me 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s rally cars all day.
Ugh electric cars
@gollumb82
Oh.. I thought this was a new Codemasters game. My bad.
@tinCAT-zero
No worries. I remember us exchanging opinions on rally games a while back and I remember you share my enthusiasm for classic rally cars 😉
I love WRC 10 as it has the best rally car handling I’ve ever used and is immense fun.
I must have spent over 10 hours on the Acropolis track alone beating my mates time and getting to number 10 in the world.
For anyone who hasn’t given it a go, it’s on PS Plum Premium
@gollumb82
Yes that's true. I must give dirt rally a blast soon.
Looking forward to this, even though I haven't been the biggest fan of the last few WRC games I will say they have been steadily improving every year.
And yes Teslas are everywhere, 10 minute drive to the store and back yesterday, my kids and I counted 27 lol!
I think those replays look pretty solid.
Can’t wait to see some gameplay!
I’ve got WRC 9, 10, and DIRT Rally 2 under my belt. Might add this one if it’s good enough. They seem to be getting better and better but I’m not a fan of the whole team management thing. I just wanna race.
I get it’s a natural evolution of the sport as a game but I’d rather just ignore all that stuff. Luckily I’ve been able to just button-mash my way through all that stuff 😂
@JudgeDredd
I only have PS plus essentials. Although I think I seen WRC 10 on sale on PSN. I might check it out.
