Sadly, to get the most of some of the new features, you are forced to play the Anniversary Mode first. Once you plugged away at the Anniversary Mode, it’s time to hit up what remains the bulk of the game – the contemporary content.

Was I 10 seconds off, or one-tenth? No idea. The game does not tell you by how much you failed, either, as the leaderboard doesn’t include timing. But you can complete a stage with green splits all the way through, finish first and still fail the challenge. You’re meant to beat a target time, fair enough. The obfuscation of your goals is frustrating, however. The rear-wheel-drive cars such as the Alpine A110 and Lancia 037 are better behaved than in last year’s title, although it’s clear the physics model is designed primarily for the current WRC machinery. If you haven’t played one of these releases in a while though, you’ll get more out of it, and even for me, driving the fearsome Group B Peugeot 205 T16 or Group A Toyota Celica ST185 is enjoyable. For the later events with modern machinery, you are simply playing WRC 8 but with the new handling model. If you’ve played previous WRC games, then you’ve driven too many of the cars and stages here already. Still better than a cheese sandwich, but something has been lost in translation from pan to Tupperware. I’m fine with chopping up bits to incentivise pre-orders or editions, but without them, this mode feels a little like eating last night’s spaghetti bolognese cold for lunch. There’s a Mitsubishi Evo V too, but that’s only if you buy the Deluxe Edition. Perhaps this will be one of the post-release updates? The trailer for the game during the Nacon Connect event showcased a 2002 Germany scenario with Loeb, but that’s completely missing. At the time of reviewing, it wasn’t yet available.

On PC, this is available as a separate download for two weeks. The Subaru is only for PlayStation and Xbox digital pre-orders. Winding your way through narrow Italian mountain roads in Colin McRae’s 1997 Subaru or claiming Sébastien Loeb’s first of 79 WRC victories in Germany. On paper, this is the main reason to purchase this game, especially if you are a WRC fan like me. It also uses mildly modified versions of the Monte Carlo and Swedish stages also found in the main career mode – the difference predominately being the number of spectators – and repurposes some of the New Zealand and Spanish stages from previous WRC games. The flesh this out, there is a suite of classic cars and brand-new stages in Sanremo (Italy) and Acropolis (Greece). In this section, you play through 15 scenarios, each representing important moments in the championship’s storied history.

Its 50th season is actually 2022, but the theory is that WRC 10 will be the current WRC game for the majority of next year, so this is the title to receive this addition. The main ticket item here is the 50th Anniversary Mode that sees you playing through pivotal moments in the WRC’s, well, 49-year history.
