Codemasters today released a new trailer and several more
screenshots from
DiRT Showdown, an action packed extension of the
DiRT series. The Crash and Burn video features work-in-progress gameplay footage, showcasing the full-impact, destruction-focussed racing featured in DiRT Showdown's 8 Ball event. The stage is a dirty, dusty circuit in the sun-baked Nevada desert where eight racers perform in front of the crowd, taking on jumps and dangerous crossover points as they jostle for position against a backdrop of fireworks and fire cannons. Boost is used to speed through gaps and smash rivals as the drivers – racing vehicles tuned for chaotic, aggressive racing – trade paint and crash out as they battle to become the star of the Showdown. DiRT Showdown will debut in May 2012 for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3.
