Big Moon Entertainment have announced Dakar 18 as an upcoming release on PC and consoles.  This studio is known for that art and animation on FlatOut 4, WRC 5 and Demons age.. and to be honest, I didn't know that I wanted a Dakar game until I watched the trailer.

DAKAR 18 is aiming to be one of the biggest open worlds ever made in a racing game, coming to PlayStation®4, Xbox One and PC platforms in 2018. Based on the world famous annual rally raid organized by Amaury Sport Organisation (A.S.O.) in South America, DAKAR 18 is a realistic simulation of the biggest cross-country rally in the world and features a variety of vehicles, including motorcycles, cars, trucks, quads and SxS. Players will compete in fierce online multiplayer battles as well as playing offline to harness and grow racing skills.
