A 72 average on few ratings — judge this one for yourself. Built for speed: non-fiction looks, arcade heart, and lap times you'll obsess over. Worth it for the campaign alone — the multiplayer stuck around and became its own thing.

About this game

Race, crash and hoon your way through a world tour of motorised mayhem in DiRT Showdown! Crowd atmosphere, social gameplay and accessibility are all ramped up in this turbo- injected shot of driving delirium. Smash down the accelerator and earn the adulation of frenzied crowds at hyper-energised events at iconic locations. Trick, speed and smash your way to victory, then do it again.

DiRT Showdown was the first spin-off of the series, taking a more arcade approach to the much-loved franchise. In DiRT Showdown, players entered a series of Tour events and were presented with a variety of races and tournaments to contend with. Released in 2012 on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360, the game added Hoonigan events and Destruction Derbies into the DiRTy mix of disciplines along with a host of online Party Modes such as Smash and Grab, Transporter and Speed Skirmish.
