WRC 5 is the first rally game in the WRC series which was developed by Kylotonn and published by BigBen Interactive in 2015. The previous WRC titles were published by Milestone slr. The game as usual offers all teams and tracks from that season, but more importantly, have the game developers succeeded in giving players a good and a fun game that represents what rally looks like in real life?

Well, they haven't, nowhere near. This game isn't much of a stable racing game either, the graphics are out of date, more like a PS2 game, and this game was also released on PS4, I think that the reviews will not be so different as these for the PS3. The game is glitchy, a lot. The car damages are glitchy, and the co-driver skips some notes which I find the most irritating, as I finish out of the track most of the times. That's the main reason why I had to return to the visual notes on the HUD, which distracts me as I have to be focused on the HUD and not on the track.

All in all I think that there are some games back on the PS2 which are more realistic and immersive, with better graphics and driving physics.
