WRC 5 Fia World Rally Championship For PC

WRC 5 is my favourite racing game of 2015. Given that this year has also seen the excellent Project CARS, that statement probably surprises you as much as it would have done for me just a couple of weeks ago.

The official game of the 2015 WRC championship, WRC 5 is a rallying sim. Please, please, please don’t be put off by the s-word though, as in rallying it is a completely different experience. In a track-based sim, to win you need to clip apexes perfectly, lap after lap, shaving precious tenths off the car ahead, waiting, planning your move until you have the perfect opportunity.

Not in a rally game. On the contrary, WRC 5 almost feels arcadey; going sideways round corners, clipping bumps and fences. But it isn’t. You still have all the tweaks and settings under the bonnet, changing gear ratios and setups to match the course conditions – even if it can be automated. The truth is, rally naturally makes for a fun simulator.
