Classic British rallycross circuit Lydden Hill is out now for Dirt Rally 2.0 on the PC and Xbox One, with the PlayStation 4 getting a delay of a few days for undisclosed reasons.
The shortest road circuit in the UK, it’s been in use since 1955. And it was the birthplace of Rallycross in 1967, the result of an idea by TV producer Robert Reed, race organiser Bud Smith and circuit owner Bill Chesson. It was one of the three tracks included in the previous Dirt Rally game, but it’s taken a little while to join the line-up of Dirt Rally 2.0.
Lydden Hill is out now as part of Dirt Rally 2.0 Season 4, which means you get it as part of Dirt Rally 2.0 Deluxe Content, Year One Pass and Super Deluxe editions, and you’ll get it automatically. Or you can purchase it as standalone DLC via Steam for the PC, the Microsoft Store, or the PlayStation Store when it arrives.
The 1 mile (1.6km) Rallycross track is available in the following conditions:
Stage Conditions (General):
- Daytime / Clear / Dry Surface
