Shout out to Nacon & KT Racing for the copy of WRC 10 for this review, my opinions are my own.
WRC 10 builds on the previous installments with a 50th Anniversary mode, which is great, but... is it burning rubber for all the right reasons? Let's jump in the driver's seat and find out. Skkrrrttttt!!!!!!!!!
Features:
This year the career mode pulls up with a livery editor in the passenger seat, so you can design your own cars and team. You know it's on for the racing game fanatics out there. Multiple fans have purchased the game after we had the opportunity to discuss it, the review wasn't even done yet, so... this mode is sure to put a smile on their faces to finally have the feature available in... WRC.
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the championship, WRC 10 is offering the brand-new Anniversary edition which allows you to relive the most intense moments from 1973 to today. WRC 10's History Mode puts your driving talents to the test through 19 historical events that require you to adapt to racing conditions of each time period. So you can expect different experiences because the cars of today aren't built like the ones a decade ago (duh of the day) and... the decade before that... and... you get the idea.
The never before seen content for WRC includes:
4 New 2021 rallies: Estonia, Croatia, Belgium, and Spain
6 Historical rallies that include Acropolis, San Remo, Germany, and Argentina
120 Special stages
52 Official teams from the 2021 season: WRC - Junior WRC
20 Legendary cars from Alpine, Audio, Lancia, Subaru, Ford, Mitsubishi, Toyota + More!
The WRC 10 UI is different from WRC 9... which stood out to me immediately. I liked the WRC 9 UI, but... I don't have a problem with the one in WRC 10, it's functional. You're able to go to different categories in order to access the different modes and options.

Solo
Career: Your career allows you to start in Junior WRC (Unlimited Tryouts) or WRC3 (3 Tryouts). Junior WRC limits you to one car (all participants use the same FWD car), no need to test in order to join the WRC Junior Championship. WRC3 allows you to take part in the WRC3 championship choosing from several 4WD cars, but it's less forgiving and you're taking on the pros. In WRC3 you have to impress recruiters first.
I haven't taken on the WRC3 yet, but going the Junior WRC route, you can select a contact where you decide to utilize a crew or a team.
You get 3 save options for your different careers (which can be deleted at any time if you want to start over).

Drivercard
The driver card is... freaking extensive. Up top, it shows you your level and the XP needed to reach the next level, along with your SN and all that good stuff. To the upper right, you get to see where your skills are the strongest. Mine is primarily versatility, which may stem from me not allowing myself to remain stuck for too long, or if I'm facing backward I'll floor it in reverse and spin to get back on the right track.
My Coach: This area basically gives you suggestions on how to improve, so I'll show the current suggestions I have from my coach. You're able to click on these suggestions to jump right in.
Overall: Try the Skoda Fabio Rally2. You can learn a lot from getting out of your comfort zone.
Offline: It might be time to try TRAINING A2 in Training mode. The track is ideal for focusing on a specific skill.

Quit: Third duh of the day.
Visuals:
Visually, hmmm... I think WRC 10 looks damn good... but it's also safe to say it hasn't gained much ground over WRC 9 in the looks department. You can compare the visuals in the Safari Kenya rally to see some of the biggest visual enhancements, but I still can't say it's major-major. It's all good though, visually... a big leap isn't going to happen all the time, and that's why there need to be other areas where you can truly see ground gained (in terms of features).

Gameplay:
Why talk about the gameplay when you can check it out for yourself? Press play!
The gameplay feels great as always, and for newcomers... the more you play, the more you will get a feel of the tracks and begin to adapt your racing style to get from start to finish. Driving on the different tracks you will get adjusted to the different terrain. Like everyone else, my goal is to get from start to finish in record-breaking time, but... I try to keep a steady pace without losing control of my vehicle.
I still have a lot of ground to cover before I get on the level of an eSports competitor, but... I'm pretty sure I can do it if I put in the time and got nice and comfortable with a racing wheel. Speaking of eSports, this is a video from the (WRC 10) Live WRC eSports Final 2021:
Before I jump into the pricing, I definitely have a standing suggestion that I would like to see in WRC. I want to see some fantasy tracks. Say what you will, but I wouldn't mind a fantasy track or something for a change of scenery sometimes. I hope to see it one of these days.
Price: Price-wise... WRC 10 rolls in at $49.99 on the PS5, $39.99 for PS4 & Xbox One, $49.99 on PC, and eventually the game will be released on the Nintendo Switch. They should consider offering up a racing wheel bundle one of these days or a discount if you purchase both the game and the official peripheral.
