About

V-Rally is a rally racing game initially developed by Eden Studios for the PlayStation. V-Rally was first released in Europe as V-Rally: 97 Championship Edition. Although the game has no connection to Electronic Arts' Need for Speed series, it was later published in North America by Electronic Arts under the title Need for Speed: V-Rally. Later ported to PC, N64, Game Boy, and Game Boy Color. It features 11 official rally cars and more than 40 courses with dynamic weather, terrain, and time-of-day variations. Players can fine-tune vehicle settings such as suspension, gear ratios, and steering before competing across three main modes: Arcade, Championship, and Time Trial. In Arcade mode, players advance through competitions grouped by difficulty, each consisting of four stages. Championship mode presents an eight-race tournament with points awarded for top-three finishes, while Time Trial mode focuses on racing against the clock or another vehicle for the fastest time.
