Nacon and KT Racing today announced that WRC 9 is coming to PlayStation 5 at launch. The game supports 4K resolution at 60 frames per second.

WRC 9 for PS5 includes the October update that was released for current-generation consoles. The update includes six new stages for Rally Finland, an additional WRC driver, and a brand-new Photo Mode.

KT Racing is using the new haptic features of the DualSense controller on PS5. The DualSense provides improved feedback for the different road surfaces encountered in the World Rally Championship.

“Thanks to the subtle vibrations possible with the DualSense controller, players can experience the most realistic driving sensations yet and feel the difference between asphalt, gravel, and snow, as well as the direction of impacts. In terms of gameplay, the controller’s innovative triggers have also been used to provide more feedback. They react to the vehicle’s condition, such as making acceleration harder when the car is damaged,” Nacon says.

Lastly, PS4 owners receive a free upgrade to the PlayStation 5 version.
