Dakar 18 Released For PS4, XBox And PC
What is Dakar 18? It’s based on a race that’s more familiar to those in another country than in the Northern Hemisphere, but that doesn’t mean it should be discounted. DAKAR is held every year in South America, and it is the largest cross-country rally race in the world. It’s pretty awesome, and everything about it has been recreated in this thrilling simulation.
It also has one of the longest bullet point list of features we’ve ever seen:
· Huge Cross-Country Open World: driving experience across Peru, Bolivia and Argentina with more than 12,000km2 of open world that doesn’t limit you to a track or certain roads.
· Dakar Rally 2018 simulated 14 stages from Lima to Córdoba
· Realistic Graphics: through the conversion of satellite images on the game terrain
· Realistic Road Book Navigation System: Simulating the official Road Books of the Dakar Rally 2018 to guide you across that immense landscape where you’re free to roam. Can you get to the finish line without getting lost?
· Time and Weather Simulation: Get stuck in dry sand under the burning sun or fight against deep mud in heavy rain or river beds!
· Sun and Constellations Simulation: Sun will move with the direction according to each country location (Peru, Bolivia and Argentina) and even the stars / constellations at night are simulated in the game.
· Rescue and Repair: Are you just driving for victory or willing to stop and help others in need? Towing a stuck competitor will provide you extra repair points. You will need them!
