Dirt Rally 2 scores – our round-up of the critics

Dirt Rally 2.0 is due for release on February 26 - that's next Tuesday - and the embargo has lifted. The critics are weighing in on the latest hardcore rally sim by the veteran British studio Codemasters, and we've put together a handy roundup of their verdicts. In our own Dirt Rally 2.0 PC review, Stirling says the game "builds on what's good about its unapologetically hardcore predecessor and adds a full-featured rallycross career mode", awarding it a strong 9/10. Having thoroughly enjoyed my own short time with it, I can't say I'm surprised, but I'm glad to see the view is shared by someone who knows what they're talking about. And, indeed, by the rest of the media. Dirt Rally 2 has been received very well, with the lowest score we've seen so far being a muscular 8.5. Not too many major outlets have checked in yet, but at time of writing, its OpenCritic average is 88 and its Metacritic is 89.
