Codemasters was zo vriendelijk om vandaag een setje screens van DiRT Showdown online te zetten, samen met het goede nieuws dat er op 1 mei aanstaande een demo van de game zal verschijnen via de bekende download kanalen. Deze zal bestaan uit een single en multiplayer event, en dat is iets wat je niet vaak samen ziet gaan.

Codemasters announced that the playable demo of DiRT Showdown is due to launch worldwide from May 1st. The demo will feature a solo and multiplayer event and will be available from Xbox Live Marketplace, PlayStation Network and Steam on PC.

When the DiRT Showdown demo goes live, Codemasters will invite fans to join the free new online hub for Codemasters Racing games, RaceNet†. RaceNet will launch in beta as an evolving interactive community platform for Codemasters Racing games and allow fans to track their Races, Rivals and Rewards.

A special 'Hoonigan' edition of DiRT Showdown is now available to pre-order exclusively from Gamestation and Game. Sporting unique packaging, the DiRT Showdown: Hoonigan Edition will include an in-game cash boost, an online XP multiplier plus Monster Energy liveries for the Kohler D350, Duke Coupe and Ford Fiesta Gymkhana 3 and Hoonigan liveries for the Holbrook Growler, Logan Vulture and Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X JUN (as seen in the 'Ultimate Hoonigan' video), redeemed via an online code.
