You may know WRC better as its former name, Dirt Rally. They announced they’ll stop working on the franchise completely.

No way EA manages to kill Codemasters this quickly after acquisition, right? I know there‘s other games they‘re working on, but especially nowadays announcements like these get me worried immediately. I like their not-too-sweaty racing games and cringed hard when EA bought them, please don‘t run them into the ground, EA.

On the one hand I don’t want devs to lose their jobs(or anyone really) but there’s a part of me that’s enjoying watching EA have to eat its hands to survive.

They literally did this to themselves. Greed and treating your customers like literal garbage never wins

I have 0 sympathy for anyone working for EA.

They dug their own grave.

As a casual rallying fan this really sucks. I hope this won’t be the death of licensed rally sims.
