Third series entry delivering solid rally simulation with new stages and improved co-driver management. Slightly below its sequels but already very capable. An excellent entry point into the Colin McRae franchise on PS2.

Is Colin McRae Rally 3 still worth playing in 2026?

A racing game from Codemasters, Colin McRae Rally 3 marks the flagship rally series' move to PS2 with then striking visuals, a demanding driving model and the champion's endorsement. The feel of driving on dirt, snow and gravel, the co-driver calling the corners and the fidelity of the sensations make it a reference in simulated rally. The high difficulty and a tighter content than the sequels divide. An excellent game for fans of rally, precise driving and sensation on PS2.
