Featuring both a full-impact solo race and a devastating multiplayer demolition derby event, the DiRT Showdown  demo will launch worldwide today and will be available from Xbox Live Marketplace, PlayStation Network and Steam on PC.

To mark the launch of the demo, Codemasters has released a ‘Demo Derby’ video showcasing the all-action motorised mayhem that players can experience today; the gameplay video is now playing at www.dirtgame.com.

In the demo, the single player ‘8 Ball’ race, players take part in a chaotic, full-impact race in the shadow of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge, using boost to sprint ahead of rivals and speeding through crossover points where drivers can dodge or takedown opponents. Once players have completed the race, they can challenge a friend online to unlock the ‘Rampage’ multiplayer mode. In ‘Rampage’, eight drivers feed their appetite for destruction in an online demolition derby event, earning points for crashes, smashes and eliminations.
