Baker will be voicing mentor and superstar racer, Alex ‘AJ’ Janiček, while North will play your rival and main antagonist of the campaign, Bruno Durand. The career mode will feature five chapters and multiple paths for players to choose from, allowing them to pick their preferred events as they build towards a final showdown with a chapter’s “highly competitive final challenge.” It sounds like it’ll be similar to the template Codemasters used in their GRID reboot, which we reviewed last year.

The campaign will also feature one off “Throwdown” challenges for players to take on and support local multiplayer for up to four players. Additional drivers will replace AI racers and even help with career progress by earning Stamps, which can then be used to unlock the aforementioned final challenges.

DIRT 5 is out 9 October on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC via Steam. An Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 version is also going to be released at some point, but no date has been set yet.
