What you need to know

Open letter to the DiRT Rally 2.0 community confirms there will be no more seasons released to the game.
Challenges and esports will continue as normal.
Latest game "soon to be revealed" won't be a DiRT Rally successor.

The bad news is that DiRT Rally 2.0 seems to have reached the end of its new content cycle.

Whilst there are no plans for additional Seasons for DiRT Rally 2.0, some minor updates and surprises are planned. At this stage, the Rally team is now focusing on the future. By no means are we saying this is "the end" for DiRT Rally 2.0. Daily/Weekly/Monthly Challenges live on, Clubs are stronger than ever and you have plenty of esports action to look forward to.Nothing's moving in terms of your usual hangout spaces (the Forums, the fan-made Discord, Reddit, YouTube, Twitter) and your support team for DiRT Rally 2.0 are still very much here to help.

There will be a new DiRT Rally game in the future it seems, but we're not going to hear about that for a while.

It could be DiRT 5, perhaps a return to the Showdown series not seen since the previous generation consoles, or it could, as is implied, be something completely different. The Codemasters Twitter account has also changed its logo which could be relating to a forthcoming announcement.

In the meantime, DiRT Rally 2.0 is available to play on both Xbox One and Windows 10 as part of Xbox Game Pass.
