This Week In Games: Dead In The DiRT

I’ve always had a soft spot for the DiRT series, or at least the iterations that spent more time on rally than the X Games-themed mania. So for those with a similar preference, or the more serious drivers who preferred DiRT Rally‘s less stringent rally handling, this week offers good news.

DiRT Rally 2 drops in a few days, and alongside that for major releases is Dead or Alive 6. It’ll be interesting to see how that goes with the FGC this year, although Smash Ultimate and Dragon Ball Fighter Z are unlikely to be dethroned as the major titles.

Beyond that, there’s a new LEGO Movie game out, a top-down shooter based on the Emu War, Stellaris drops on consoles, Undertale‘s deltarune expansion hits the Switch and, out of nowhere, there’s a new Toe Jam & Earl game.

So still a busy week, just not quite as flashy.
