A new update will release for EA Sports WRC alongside the next season of the Rally Pass. Among the long list of patch notes features a number of performance fixes. Still tackling the Unreal Engine’s Pre-Shader Compilation intricacies, players will hope this latest update will finally put an end to stuttering in-game.
In addition to the supposed boost in performance, the update includes fixes to many glitches. However, whilst dropping infinite Shakedown attempts, Club events will seemingly still feature damage repair glitches.
Elsewhere, VR support is still set for implementation at a later date. EA Sports confirms that it will communicate more on the feature once release approaches. Here is everything you need to know about the Season 3 Rally Pass and the rest of the update.
The Season 3 Rally Pass rewards include five new liveries, one of which coming with the EA Play subscription. Whilst the update launches on 8 February, Season 3 begins on 13 February.
Whilst not adding Virtual Reality to the game, Andreas Mikkelsen fans will now get to don the Norwegian’s colours. His Skoda Fabia Rally 2 livery is now available in-game. Speaking of liveries, it is clear that, at least throughout Season 3, the 2024 WRC liveries will not join EA Sports WRC.
With the Central European Rally still relatively new in the game, it features heavily on the patch notes. From graphical adjustments to glitch fixes and performance improvements, the newest location should be more fun to race.
