Dakar Desert Rally is an open-world off-road racing game that recreates the massive Dakar rally across thousands of square kilometres of desert, mountain and savanna terrain. Players can choose from a wide roster of licensed cars, bikes, trucks, quads and SSVs, and compete in arcade-style Sport mode, realistic Professional/Simulation modes, or online multiplayer for up to four racers. The game also features a custom road-book editor for creating and sharing stages. The Deluxe Edition bundles the base game with the Season Pass, granting immediate unlocks for the DAF Truck Turbo-Twin and Peugeot 405 Turbo 16, plus additional vehicle packs and DLC content.
