Codemasters today announced that DiRT Showdown, an action packed extension of the DiRT series, will debut in May 2012 for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3. For DiRT Showdown Codemasters decided to abandon the game's traditional features for arcade-style fun,with modes like demolition derby and stunt driving.
“Dirt Showdown is not the sequel to the authentic rally-centric Dirt 3, but a brand new experience from the Dirt team,” said Julian Widdows, VP, development. “We’re building on Codemasters Racing Studio’s world-class strengths in track design, graphics, AI, damage and online to create a new theatre of racing with the emphasis on accessibility and fun from race one.”
Codemasters also states that this is their most connected game ever, with split-screen multiplayer, eight-player online races, on and offline party games, YouTube integration, and a “Showdown Challenge” system that allows you to challenge your friends.
