Our Review

4 /10

The good

  • Ambitious attempt at honouring the Dakar licence
  • Vast open world replicating the Dakar locations

The bad

  • Below par graphical fidelity
  • Poor handling across all vehicles
  • Clunky damage model
  • Annoying co-driver
  • Feels like an unfinished product

Dakar ’18 contains many superb elements, but ultimately the finishing touches just aren’t there. This all making for an incohesive experience which cannot be recommended at this time. But with lots to build on, there is plenty of potential for future iterations.
