Dirt 5 has been delayed — again — by three weeks. Instead of arriving in October 16, the next chapter of the Dirt racing franchise will now release November 6 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. This is the second delay for Dirt 5, after being pushed a week, last time around. In all, Dirt 5 has been delayed a month now. As before, early access begins three days earlier, on November 3. Dirt 5 is still holding onto its unspecified 2020 release date for next-gen consoles PS5 and Xbox Series X, developer Codemasters added.
Codemasters has had a long run with the Gran Turismo) exclusives currently in development, and without a release date of their own.
“The release date for Dirt 5 on PlayStation 5 later this year, followed by Google Stadia in 2021.
“It sucks, we know. Seriously, we can't thank everyone enough for your and excitement around Dirt 5, ever since its reveal back in May. The positive we've received from hands-on preview sessions has blown us away, too. The start line is now a little further away, but it's still very much in sight.
“Don't forget: anyone who owns Dirt 5 on current-gen consoles will still be entitled to the relevant next-gen optimised version, when it launches, free of charge.
“More Dirt 5 news and brand new gameplay is coming your way between now and November. Get ready for first looks at new cars and locations, the final car list, more next-gen feature details, and a full reveal of Dirt 5's multiplayer features. Stick around – we're just getting started.”
Dirt 5 will roll in November 6 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One, and later in 2020 on PS5 and Xbox Series X.
