Assuming these issues get patched out, then it is easy to recommend buying this on the PS5, because DIRT 5 is a showcase racing game for the next generation of consoles with its smart use of haptic feedback and ray tracing, all while delivering a smooth performance.
Dirt 5 is a departure from earlier entries in the series, as it goes full arcade racer. That’s to its credit though, as the actual racing is satisfying and exciting. This means that the vehicles and their customization options feel a bit shallow, which could disappoint some fans. Thanks to an incredible Playgrounds mode and some pretty next-gen visuals, Dirt 5 is a solid offering from Developer Codemasters.
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.
