WRC 10 DLC ROADMAP FULL
Sale time! Yes, a sale is as synonymous with Christmas as cheap socks and cheaper wine, and not wanting to break from the tradition of low prices on awesome content, the rFactor 2 Steam Winter Sale is in full swing – with massive discounts across loads of items within the simulation. Of course this month is a little more dramatic than usual, punctuated with a visit from a fat man in a red suit clambering down the chimney at the dead of night to deliver those socks you always wanted, but that doesn’t mean we’ve taken our foot off the gas here at Studio 397, far from it in fact, as we’ve once again had a bumper month of new stuff for rFactor 2, with plenty more cooking away nicely in the background ready to kick into gear for 2021. While this deal might not be as lucrative as Microsoft’s ZeniMax purchase, Take-Two Interactive is surely hoping that Codemasters can solidify the company as a big player in the racing field.The final rFactor 2 Development Roadmap of 2020 is here! With the festive season in full swing amidst the yearly tradition of afternoon drinking, over eating and slouching around the sales in search of items at prices we can’t resist, it feels like a fine of a time as any to tell you all about the rFactor 2 goodies during this holiday season, before we lay virtual pen and paper to rest for a much-needed break. Microsoft is in the process of acquiring ZeniMax Media, the owners of Bethesda, for a whopping $7.5 billion. While $994 million sure is a pretty penny to pay, a certain deal that occurred back in September eclipses most. There’s been some pretty big deals in the games industry as of late, with this being the latest. Over the last half a decade alone, Codemasters has launched six F1 games, four Dirt games, Micro Machines World Series, Onrush and Grid 2019. Take-Two also heads up a strong sports games division, and sees this deal as a way to bolster that output. Sure, not every game the team releases is a straight 10, but Codemasters delivers consistent quality in the racing field. Take-Two will no doubt be licking its chops at the quantity and quality of Codemasters’ output. Codemasters’ other franchises include Grid, F1, Onrush, and from the 2023/2024 seasons onwards, the WRC games.
