You may know WRC better as its former name, Dirt Rally. They announced they’ll stop working on the franchise completely.

On the one hand I don’t want devs to lose their jobs(or anyone really) but there’s a part of me that’s enjoying watching EA have to eat its hands to survive.

They literally did this to themselves. Greed and treating your customers like literal garbage never wins

I have 0 sympathy for anyone working for EA.

They dug their own grave.

No way EA manages to kill Codemasters this quickly after acquisition, right? I know there‘s other games they‘re working on, but especially nowadays announcements like these get me worried immediately. I like their not-too-sweaty racing games and cringed hard when EA bought them, please don‘t run them into the ground, EA.

It’s EA, this is what they do

I hope this is only for WRC licensed game and we still will get Dirt/Dirt Rally game.

As a casual rallying fan this really sucks. I hope this won’t be the death of licensed rally sims.
