V-Rally 4

VirtuaIceMan · Mar 16, 2018

Well, from speculation on other forums, they plan to release V-Rally 4 around the time they would release WRC8, and I expect they wouldn't be allowed to release a competing product.

No one is saying anything definitely yet, but both Dirt Rally and Seb Loeb Rally Evo had real life WRC stages, as I expect they were trying to get the WRC license.

Codemasters are being quite quiet about it at the moment, but have something to announce at some point, rally related.

Somebody should reunite the developers of Richard Burns Rally and give them tons of money to create WRC 8.

And it'll be commercial suicide.

Based on what, your ...calculations ?
Was a DiRT Rally "commercial suicide" ?

And comparing it to regular "DIRT" series... it should be right ?

Quite a simulation. Yet so highly rated by both customers and critics.

Obviously Dirt rally didn't get enough funds to continue going in that direction.
And, it wasn't hardcore and/or RBR philosophy.
There is a lot of nuances why you picked the wrong example, like they actually chosen the only model that could work well for games like this - early access with gradual increasing of content, but they stopped it fast and moved on - meaning if they continued on it they'd lose more than they gain.

I hope it will have V-Rally3-esque career mode..

i pass on this one... V-Rally 3 was nice but i dont see the 4th title any near to the older ones sorry but no

it's the biggest new for RALLY !!!!
it means KYLOTONN has lost WRC licence so finally a real good developper can try to buy the WRC licence !!

I never thought the name V-Rally would ever make a comeback. If that means more dirt/off-road racing games coming out, then I'm excited

Paul Jeffrey · Aug 9, 2018

Coming to PC, Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo Switch this September, V-Rally 4 will end a 15 year wait for a new entry into the hugely popular rally racing title.

Developed by BigBen Entertainment and Kylotonn Racing, V-Rally 4 is, as the name suggests, the fourth edition to the long standing V-Rally franchise, and thanks to what has been a rather incredible 15-year period since the last entry into the series, the very first V-Rally game to be released on modern generation gaming devices.

The new title looks set to contain over 50 customisable vehicles and has what has been labelled as "a Career mode and an innovative online mode to transform your experience and progress".

V-Rally 4 Key Features:

Rally: from Kenya to Sequoia Park, dominate the most difficult routes in conditions that are often extreme, at the wheel of modern and historic vehicles.
V-Rally Cross: intense 8-way races on dirt/tarmac tracks.
Extreme-Khana: drift, precision and speed, with traps scattered over the roads, putting your driving and showmanship skills to the test!
Buggy: become an expert at driving through hilly terrain, adopt the special reflexes and learn the particular physics needed to win these fierce races.
Hillclimb: reach the peaks at the wheel of these powerful, twitchy monsters.

V-Rally 4 will release on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 September 6th, with a PC release scheduled for 25/09 and Nintendo Switch following shortly after.

Is this more sim or more arcade?

As a guess I'd say arcade, but I've not had the chance to put my hands on it yet so can't say for sure..

Looks to be another console arcade off road racer if you ask me...

the sep11 release may be huge hit... but a gamble.

Anxiously awaiting news of support for direct input. My WRC 7 copy became useless when I upgraded to OSW. Just when I made peace with the FFB and enjoyed the lovely stages. I barely got a chance to play more than a handful of stages before I sold the Fanatec gear, which itself lacked support at launch.

We shall see.

All you need is Assetto Corsa: Competizione.

I like V-Rally, I like the cars I have seen, HillClimb looks interesting but... I don't know, procedural stages (didn't have exactly a good experience in DiRT 4), close to the launch of F1 and Dakar 18, the game looks worse than WRC7... I saw lot of potential at first, but seems like it have banished.
