Codemasters has comfirmed that there will be a follow up to Colin McRae: DiRT 2. Colin McRae: DiRT 3 has been announced by President of Development Gavin Cheshire.
The game will be the second installment of the DiRT series since the death of 1995 World Rally Champion Colin McRae, his son Johnny & two family friends, Graeme Duncan & Johnny's six year old friend Ben Porcelli, in a helicopter crash not far from his home in Lanark, Scotland.
"There's some great stuff coming from Birmingham that's going into DiRT 3," Cheshire said to the gaming magazine, EDGE.
Cheshire also commented: "DiRT was a complete reboot - we threw away what was going on and redid it completely - and then we rebooted GRID because it wasn't top gun, and then we rebooted DiRT 2. I'm not saying we're throwing all the codebase away, but we're throwing the thoughts away and coming out with something fresh and new. Because if you don't innovate, you're dead,"
"I guess in today's world, every day you're dealing with people from all over the world. So it's a British company and the last bastion of British publishing, and there is some pride in that, but it doesn't take control of your life.
"It's about the culture we've created and making the best games you can. DiRT 2: brilliant game but it's all American accents, so maybe we're a little over the top with those. Maybe we should fly the flag a bit more" he also added.
Cheshire also commented that the latest edition of the DiRT series is likely to be more British based than its predessor, DiRT 2.
DiRT 2 was a massive success for Codemasters, who have been involved with the Colin McRae Rally series since its inception almost a decade ago.
