They show sufficient visual damage, though some of the scratch effects seem a little low-res when viewed from bonnet cam. WRC 6’s cars seem sharp, well-detailed, and about on par with its peers. Crashing through shallow water should be dramatic, highlight-reel stuff, but in WRC 6 it’s a forgettable effect a generation or two behind the curve. They also lack pizazz the water-splash effect in WRC 6, for instance, is an abject anticlimax.

However, WRC 6’s stages are nowhere near as handsome. While there’s not a huge number of stages per country, that’s about twice the amount of locations featured in Dirt Rally. There’s a great variety of stages as they’re spread across all 14 countries from the 2016 World Rally Championship, and there are a number of extremely technical two-car Super Special Stages amongst them (though no rallycross tracks).

The sense of velocity is also terrific because of the cramped, obstacle-lined roads even modest speeds feel fast when hazards are whipping by in such close proximity to your car. WRC 6’s strongest feature is its narrow and lengthy stages.
