WTMG's Leo Faria: "It doesn’t matter if you’re playing DIRT 5 on a PS4 or a PS5, you’re going to have a blast with it regardless. However, I have to give the slight advantage towards the PS5 version, of course. Not only does it look and perform way better than its older brother’s counterpart, but the genius usage of the DualSense’s haptic triggers adds an extra layer of immersion to an already excellent racing experience. The first racing game released for the system might be a cross-gen title, but damn if it isn’t a fantastic one."
With the DualSense's adaptive triggers, racing games feel right at home on the PS5, but which are the best racing games?
Man I wish arcade racers would make a comeback. Racing games have become so boring if you're not into SIM or semi-Sims. That isn't discrediting SIMs, I'd just rather get chased by police, ram people off the road, drift at impossible speeds. The Crew 2 and NFS are just a bit average at best.
All available January 4.
Looking forward to feeling the road deform under my thumbs in Dirt 5. I loved it on XB so playing it on PS to earn some trophies will be just as fun if not more thanks to the DS.
What are the best racing games? From Gran Turismo to Mario Kart, here are the best driving games you can play right now.
Best racing game last gen, for me, was the excellent Driveclub, without a single doubt. Flawed launch perhaps, but they more than made up for that.
Dirt 2 GOTY (the base-game was a bit too empty, but the GOTY is packed with content) also deserves a mention, for fans of the genre.
