The solid rally racing game WRC 9 has received a new update, the first one to add new content post-launch.
Titled the Blind Jumps update, 6 new special stages from Neste Rally Finland have been added. You will need to pay attention to your co-driver’s pace note reading, as the title update alluded, there are a lot of blind jumps.
In addition, the updates add New Zealand driver Hayden Paddon and his co-driver John Kennard. Paddon doesn’t have a drive in this year’s real-life WRC season, but the Kiwi’s enthusiasm with sim racing has earned him and his co-driver a spot in WRC 9. He’ll drive the Hyundai i20 WRC.
Lastly, a proper photo mode has been added as well.
There will be more free updates like this coming. KT Racing teased that the next update will be adding Co-Driver Mode. Details will be shared soon.
Check out our review of WRC 9 here. After the fantastic entry of WRC 8 last year, this year’s game is another solid drive from the developers.
