Inspired by seminal 1990s games like Sega Rally and Colin McRae Rally, Rally Arcade Classics skidded onto Steam last September following an Early Access period. Since then, the old-school rally game has received console ports on PlayStation, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch.
To celebrate its first anniversary, Rally Arcade Classics has received a hefty 50% discount for one week until 15th September, lowering the price to £8.37 / $9.99. At the time of writing, the discount only applies to the PC version on Steam.
Alongside the discount, the new ‘Precision & Chase’ update is also out today, adding requested features including a manual transmission option, a revamped speedometer design replacing the previous bar and an online friends list allowing players to compare their fastest times with friends on the leaderboards. New leaderboard options will also allow you to track the top ten times.
“We devoted two hard years to create this game with a passionate team and one goal: to combine elements from different eras of racing games and keep an accessible experience for both veteran and new fans of the genre,” said Salvador Casamiquela, co-founder at NetK2Games.
In addition to a lengthy campaign with Gran Turismo-style license tests and a plethora of events, Rally Arcade Classics includes 44 cars from the ‘70s, ‘80s and ‘90s. None are licensed, but the vehicles are heavily inspired by iconic real-world models like the Lancia Stratos, Peugeot 206 and Subaru Impreza, blending simulation and arcade handling.
Spanning four locations, there are nearly 50 circuits to tackle, each with dynamic time-of-day and weather conditions.
Rally Arcade Classics is out now on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch.
