    If we would have liked for the last dance of the KT Racing-WRC collaboration real novelties on the Career mode and a little more fantasy on the classic game modes or the dressing, WRC Generations does the job. First in the modeling of his specials, then in handling his cars according to the surfaces and the conditions. In line with a successful anniversary episode, the ultimate title succeeds, without drastically upsetting its formula, in being a lasting opus and with the best lifespan of the saga. More than 150 stages in 22 countries, more than 80 racing cars with the addition of hybrid engines for the WRC, daily and weekly multi-league and club modes, the objective has been achieved by Kylotonn Racing: the title is immortal.

    When you get into the guts of it, WRC Generations is by no means a drastic shake-up on its quality predecessors, even if there have been some small but welcome improvements to the career mode and customisation tools that have spiked my enthusiasm. It does, however, deserve credit for both the very respectable range of relevant rally cars it features, as well as its absolute mountain of rally locations. With almost every country to host the WRC over the last decade represented, WRC Generations may be KT Racing’s last WRC game, but there’s nothing least about it. The kitchen sink philosophy has resulted in a fantastic and uncommonly generous package for gravel groupies, asphalt addicts, and mud-slinging maniacs alike.

    WRC Generations is a fitting conclusion to KT Racing's time with the WRC license. It's like a farewell tour, a greatest hits collection, and a new album all at once. There's a lot that regular players will have seen before, from returning rallies to the latest refinements of the accessible but challenging racing, but the new Rally1 cars add a little spice to the top tier rallying, and Leagues and the sheer wealth of stages to race on could ensure this game is still getting plenty of mileage a couple of years from now.

    WRC Generations shows how much the series has grown by combining the best elements from the past several games.

    In the seven years that KT Racing has been at the helm of development, we certainly haven't seen any radical changes or major improvements. Even so, in those years the series has had some of its most interesting moments, which are now offered all together in one package.

    Whilst the presentation is stale, the driving of WRC Generations remains as engaging as ever. The new hybrid engines gave me something else to consider whilst adhering to the pace notes but the handling remained steady and reliable. The diverse locations provide a showcase or rallies present and past and, whilst the historical content has been featured before, it's now under one roof. I do wish they pushed the boat out for their final outing with the license but what's here is a solid product.

    WRC Generations should be the ultimate final installment in the series, but only half succeeds. There is absolutely no shortage of content with plenty of cars and tracks, giving you hours of gameplay. At the same time, it is lacking in innovation and improvement, including relatively mediocre physics. If you already have the previous part, this is not worth it. If you are new, then thankfully WRC Generations has plenty to offer despite some shortcomings.

I’ve been playing the WRC games made by Kylotonn since WRC 9. I’m also an avid Dirt Rally 2.0 player. I enjoy all of them, however, WRC Generations really hits the mark. The physics provide excellent feel of the surface you’re driving on and driving flat out is exhilarating - feels like nothing I’ve experience in any previous rally game. In previous titles, the physics felt detached, but in Generations you can feel the weight of the car truly shifting when you drift through a corner. In addition, the copious amount of rallies and stages to drive will keep me occupied for years to come. I’ve never actually driven a rally car, but WRC Generations provides me with a detailed sensation that makes me think “Wow so that’s what it must feel like driving through Sweden flat out, with one mistake easily taking you out of the rally.” It’s an magnificent send off by Kylotonn and I can see myself continually returning to the game for years to come.… Expand

Above all, the career modeCompared to the predecessor, the developers have taken another step in the right direction with "WRC Generations". Above all, the career mode has become deeper and more varied than before. You have countless options at your disposal, and the new editor for the paint jobs is very appealing. In addition, there are many more modes and the selection of today's and classic vehicles is enormous in "WRC Generations". The tutorials also make are and also the controls just feel more rounded. The graphics and sound are also good and round off the great conclusion to the series of "WRC Generations".… Expand

    Not quite enough variety; Stability issues; Mostly incremental improvements.

    Thoughts-
    For the most part, WRC Generations seems to round out the ups and downs of the previous few games with an arguably ideal combination of what worked best in recent installments. While I wish it went further than surface level with its upgrades, it has by no means phoned in this entry. Its gameplay is just deep enough for big-time enthusiasts to justify spending dozens of hours in, while its learning curve is just shallow enough for more casual or arcade style racing fans to get plenty of enjoyment out of it too. While it does ultimately pay the price of probably not wow-ing most people in either camp, it does handle the task of maximizing the knowledge the developer has clearly gained from the past few games while minimizing the price paid for the few wrinkles they were never quite able to totally iron out. Had the stability and variety been stepped up just a bit more, it would be a stronger recommendation, but as it is, I certainly wouldn’t ward you off if WRC Generations is something that you’re interested in. If you’re familiar with the series and generally know what to expect, then this is arguably the apex of the series up to this point but even if you’re new to the series, I still think there’s plenty of reason to give it a shot with some moderated expectations.    … Expand

    The developers called this game WRC Generations, and it doesn't even feature the second generation Subaru Impreza. Are you freaking kiddingThe developers called this game WRC Generations, and it doesn't even feature the second generation Subaru Impreza. Are you freaking kidding me? The developers were too cheap to license the car. The windshield wipers animations are nice, although the rain looks like a joke. Car physics are good for the most part, but the handbrake is flawed. Sometimes the car feels like a hovercraft around corners. Customization is good and so are the tracks. The graphics are impressive for a $40 game.

    There is online multiplayer and local split screen. I personally didn't have any issues online. It works very well. It's always funny watching players lose control and flip over. The game is currently $30 and I recommend at the price or less.    … Expand

The vibration effect was so good that you can literally feel the surface under the car in your palms but in generations the vibration doesn’t even work. It set to zero by default in the settings and if you try to change that the game crashes. Another issue is with the lack of water reflections on puddle and too much reflective shimmer on wet surfaces which is horrendous to look at. It’s been more than 10 days yet there is no update to fix these issues.… Expand
