Gameplay and Mechanics

The combination of realistic driving mechanics and tough courses that put even veteran players to the test keeps "WRC 7" fresh.

In-Depth Physics: An advanced physics engine properly simulates every aspect of driving a rally car and all conditions (including how different surfaces such as gravel, tarmac and snow affect the driving). As a result of this realism, players must learn and execute all driving strategies in order to be successful.

The WRC Experience: players can pick their team and tackle the official 2017 WRC season augmented with additional access to teams, drivers, and cars. The game includes 13 official rallies with multiple stages in each rally trying to replicate real-world locations.

Weather and time of day : The game features a dynamic weather system, adding another layer of challenge when conditions change — which, as we can attest first-hand, they do on the drop of a hat, impacting visibility and track conditions. Rain, fog and changing light require drivers to adjust their driving behaviour.

Career Mode that offers players a chance to start off in the junior ranks and rise up to become an official driver as well compete for the World Rally Champion title. It provides a full rally racing experience, from team management, to car upgrades and even contract negotiations in its career mode.
