Black Bean Games has announced that it will publish WRC 2 in October this year. The game, in development at Milestone, follows last year’s WRC and will arrive on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

The 2001 edition of the game will include all the rallies of the 2011 World Rally Championship and all the leading teams and drivers – in total that means you’ll be getting more than 90 stages, 15 locations, 25 different terrain/weather conditions and 9 car categories. WRC 2 will also ship with a revamped Career Mode and 16-player multiplayer.

“There are millions of WRC followers and racing games enthusiasts all around the world and our ambition is to make them happy with our official products,” said Luisa Bixio, Leader Spa managing director. “Most of them simply can’t wait to know more about the next WRC episode. Following the International press and consumer feedback we collected after the 2010 edition release, everyone at Black Bean Games and Milestone, together with the North One Sport team, is doing the best to achieve the most important objective of this year: meeting the gamers expectations. We really want to deliver a state-of-the-art off-road motorsport experience which combines a great graphics impact, the best driving model in this genre and all the WRC elements from the current season such as all classes, drivers, all rallies as well as much more to enjoy such as the brand new Super Special Stages!”.

WRC 2 is due this October on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
