Dakar Desert Rally has had a troublesome start with lack of steering wheel support and few bugs. We are reaching now to Patch 1.4 where we expect these issues to be resolved.
Patch 1.4
Today we’ve launched our latest patch for Dakar Desert Rally for Steam. This patch fixes a number of issues with steering wheel support, force feedback support, AI behavior, handling on Bikes and Quads, and much more. We’ve also added our first free DLC, the Extended Saudi Arabia Map, which adds the complete simulation events from Dakar Rally 2020, Dakar Rally 2021, and Dakar Rally 2022.
We’re going to continue improving, updating, and adding to the game. Thank you all for your patience and constructive feedback. We appreciate it!
