- Players looking for a non-racing game will not find that scope here.
Our take on RXC - Rally Cross Challenge
The likely sticking point is the handling model: newcomers may enjoy the racing, but players who expect forgiving arcade steering can hit resistance as traction and vehicle damage affect control. The challenge becomes especially tangible when collisions bend steering or suspension, or cost a wheel or tire.
