In 2005, British game studio Traveller's Tales and SCEE developed a new WRC title for the PlayStation Portable based on WRC: Rally Evolve, which had recently been released on the PS2.[2] The PSP port was jointly released by Namco and SCE as WRC, WRC: FIA World Rally Championship and World Rally Championship in the UK, Japan and the US, respectively.[2]
Like its predecessor, World Rally Championship is based around the 2005 season and features 30 fully-deformable 2005 WRC, Evolution and Extreme spec cars.[2] In championship mode, players have the opportunity to play through the entire WRC season as any one of the 17 official 2004 registered drivers from the 6 official manufacturers, participating in 16 official rallies spanning 5 continents and 16 countries.[2] Additionally, there are 19 bonus stages and downloadable content available to users.[2] In addition to championship mode, there are also quick rally, time trial and single rally single-player game modes.[3] World Rally Championship also supports various ad hoc multiplayer modes, such as wireless time trial, turn-based time trial, turn-based single rally, and turn-based championship.[3]
However, unlike the PS2 version, the PSP remake does not include damage simulation—though visual damage to the vehicle can be seen.
WRC 2010
Black Bean Games announced that they are working on a new officially licenced WRC game, entitled WRC 2010, which will be released in 2010.[4] It is the first original game in the series not to be developed by Evolution Studios and is expected to be released on the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
