WRC 8 is hard! (And there’s no rewinds) In career mode, at the Rally of Sweden in baby’s first rally car, medium difficulty no assists I was just under 20 seconds off the pace each stage but winning the super special stage (a short arena circuit). Some challenges give you mashed up car to rally. You don’t take part in all 14 rallies in the lower classes only half. Each rally consists of 4 stages across 2 days you can have a mechanic fix your car for 45 minutes in between.
In season mode it’s just the rallies and nothing else.

Within career mode as well as the championship, you hire staff, upgrade your car and team, complete side events such as historic rally stages and manufacturer tryouts to help earn a better drive for the following year. In both you start out in one of the two lower categories of rally and work your way up each season to the main event of the World Rally Championship in 380hp insanely fast cars. On Switch WRC 8 is literally the same version as other platforms ported across with lower resolution and frame rate (I had a very few drops in frame that weren’t bad enough to put me off in the slightest), complete with unusable haptic feedback settings and unselectable weekly challenges reaching back to the earlier launch on other platforms.Ĭareer and season modes are the only thing to do. Importantly for a realistic racer you can set analogue stick acceleration and braking and even dead zones and sensitivity but there isn’t motion control steering, this allows smooth throttle control needed to keep traction on slippery surfaces and not swap ends when driving the legendary Lancia Stratos. There’s detailed car setups if that’s your thing and an extremely impressive damage model.
Let’s just start by saying the rallying is bloody awesome in WRC 8, on a fast rally like Finland the exhilarating feeling of drifting through gravel and flying over the jumps just can’t be beaten, there’s dynamic weather, tyre choices between hard and soft and tyre wear that all make a massive impact on handling. There’s a lot of different environments to race through. There’s over 100 stages across 14 rallies so plenty to race on. WRC 8 on Nintendo Switch is a realistic officially licensed rally simulation racing game, with all the official cars, teams and drivers.
