I love my traditional sports titles but there’s something even more special about what’s served up courtesy of EA Sports’ WRC with rally racing and crushing it in the trenches. A full year in the books and more fun to come? How about kicking back and checking out some impressive stats 12 months in? Say less.

It’s a massive celebration for EA Sports’ standout title and I’m here to geek out. Peep the deets.

EA SPORTS™ WRC commemorates its one-year anniversary and reflects on a year of thrilling rallies across dynamic stages and unparalleled in-game community engagement. The data reveals fans’ favorite cars, events, classes and most active nations in the official game of the World Rally Championship™. 

Players across the globe have been rallying and braving the elements in pursuit of the perfect run.
