The current hardware limitations seem to have created a shell of what the next generation version of the game would be. Now at the end of this generation and moving onto the next, the latest title DIRT 5 is being offered for both generations.

Players who were more interested in the true simulation aspect of rally racing went for the DIRT Rally series, while the traditional DIRT series would implement a sim-cade experience. A fun and realistic rally racing franchise that would eventually see a split. Codemasters and the DIRT franchise have gone hand-in-hand for years.
