SEGA Rally Online Arcade, a new HD title inspired by SEGA Rally Revo and SEGA Rally 3 (the arcade game based on Revo), will be released on PlayStation Network and Xbox LIVE Arcade later this year, SEGA has announced.

“We’ve blended our hit arcade racing series with the best elements from the console versions to bring our fans the SEGA Rally experience in compact, downloadable format,” said Haruki Satomi, vice president of Digital Business at SEGA. “Whether they’re new to the SEGA Rally series or they’ve participated in countless races over the years, we’re confident everyone will enjoy the wide variety of features included in this fan favourite.”

SEGA Rally Online Arcade features Championship Battle mode and Time Attack, and adds an online racing mode that lets players battle it out with up to five drivers around the world.

The game also offers a brand new achievement system, 14 rally cars to choose from and online leaderboards.

SEGA Rally Online Arcade will be released in 2011.

SEGA’s 2007 re-launch of SEGA Rally was well received, offering fully interactive environments and the series’ thrilling racing action. Providing the downloadable game offers enough tracks for the price (TBA), SEGA should be onto a winner with this one.
