In addition to the official content of the 2019 FIA World Rally Championship, WRC 8 will also offer a selection of WRC 2 and Junior WRC drivers, as well as a few historic models to be revealed “very shortly.” In total, the game comes with more than 100 special stages that take place in 14 countries spanning the globe, with more than 50 teams, new weekly challenges and its competitive esports mode to boot.

Meanwhile, the M-Sport Ford team will be relying on Elfyn Evans and Teemu Suninen to gain traction out on the various world-famous courses of the 2019 WRC season. This year’s WRC season also sees the return of the nine-time World Champion and WRC legend, Sébastien Loeb, who is driving this year for Hyundai Motorsport in support of Thierry Neuville, Andreas Mikkelsen and Dani Sordo. Toyota will also try to defend its 2018 manufacturers' title with Jari-Matti Latvala, Kris Meeke and Ott Tänak.
