Codemasters Unveils Amazing DiRT 2 Studio Tour Video
by Eric Bush
Codemasters has released a Colin McRae: DiRT 2 Studio Tour feature video that reveals the tech that will drive Colin McRae: DiRT 2 and how it is enabling the studio to create an off-road racing experience that’s set to be peerless in both scope and delivery. Illustrated by the game’s first ever publicly-released gameplay footage, Senior Executive Producer Gavin Raeburn and the team begin by demonstrating the new particle physics system and the water technology.
The video then details how Colin McRae: DiRT 2’s drivers will be able to take their favourite vehicles through multiple racing disciplines, thanks to the new racing ‘packs’ that will enable players to customise their vehicle depending on the type of race they’re competing in. Gavin also discusses the specifics of the new handling system and how players will be doing the ‘Scandinavian Flick’ like Ken Block in no time.
Wrapping up the video, a demonstration of the game’s dynamic lighting system shows how its effects will bring locations alive as players throw top-spec, supercharged cars around the likes of London’s iconic Battersea Power Station. See the brand new trailer below:
