From the Red Bull article / interview, which wasn't even a Playstation-centric interview - they only acknowledge PSVR, and only as a possibility:
Edit - Steam store page is already up, no VR icons on the right hand side.

I know Dirt Rally was more of a sim but I didn't have as much fun with it as I did with Dirt 3. Hope Dirt 4 is a worthy successor.

I have no interest in a 2D racing game, so hopefully they sort it out. Won't even pay attention to this until then.

I assume this is going to be simcade from that description?
No, it's going to have two modes, sim and "wayhey"

Oh wow, if true this will be amazing. Would be nice for this to appeal to all fans.
History has shown that when you try to have broad appeal you satisfy noone. I really wish codies embraced dirt rally OR dirt 4. Both series ate terrific for different audiences. Its the combinatiin thats likely to water down both. Hope im wrong here...
This better be actually better than DiRT Rally then. If it is, then the game is a must-purchase.
If they end up killing all the goodwill though.. :/

Great news, they should really remaster Dirt 1-3 as well....
Same. I just don't want to play any racing games on my TV screen (my PC is hooked up to it) anymore. Especially for drifting in a racing game, it's just a) so much more fun and b) that much controllable in VR. I've obliterated my old personal bests (set on TV) in Dirt Rally's shorter tracks by 15 seconds on the second try in VR.
I get the feeling that DiRT Rally was used to test the waters and see whether people actually wanted a hardcore rally sim. Now they've got their answer it looks like they're interpreting it into their mainline series while giving people a choice to appeal to more fans, including the casual ones.

G27 support on PS4 please
Yeah for sure, but it's also so that racing games that attempt to have both simulator and arcade handling models end up doing both kinda wrong.
We'll see. I hope it's good because DiRT Rally is flatout the best rally game since RBR.
It won't happen, stop asking for it..

Nice. Out of no where. Dirt Rally was a true return to form. Let's hope that handling/physics carry over to Dirt 4. If we get that Rally driving feel + infinite stage creator...oh man.

I wonder if this is what ex-Evolution staff have been helping on?
Either way...hype! I'm ready for more DiRT.

Sadly I will also be the same but no bargain bin for me. This is one of the few genres that VR has made very hard to go back to. I'd happily wait or pay for a VR DLC like they have done with Dirt Rally on PSVR though I'd prefer it at launch.

Those expecting anything close to the physics of dirt rally are in for serious disappointment.
Codemasters always do this, they have something amazing then shit on it from a great height.

I just wanted Dirt Rally 2, but if it's Dirt that's more in line (or better) than Dirt Rally, then okay. My standards and expectations from Codemasters are still set low, as always. Dirt Rally was a great surprise, I'll let this surprise me as well.
I'm in two minds on this. As much as I love Dirt Rally's handling, I've been hoping Codemasters would come out with a sequel to Dirt 3. Seriously in my top 3 racers from last gen. A more arcade like Dirt game would be more than welcome for me.
I guess I'm one of the few who actually liked gymkhana, stunting and pretty much all of Dirt 3. Fantastic game that was.
Save the sim handling for Dirt Rally 2.

I hope that they can manage both sets of expectations with dirt 4, but i cant help but think we'd all be better off if codies embraced each style for each series and alternated releases between the arcadey "dirt" series and the sim "rally" one.
This sounds ideal. I also believe that trying to design the game to cater to both audiences only serves to disappoint everyone. That's how you end up with Need For Speed..

I loved Dirt 1, 2 and 3 and even enjoyed Showdown and I hated Rally, so I am happy at this news.

Well, I really wanted DLC or an expansion to DIRT Rally but I guess that got skipped?
Also wanted them to do Trucks and Buggys one day so this is it.
Hopefully they retain the feel of RALLY because that was amazing and I don't want an arcade game. I know they they say they will let you do sim but let's see how it works first.

I really liked Dirt 3 (minus the gymkhana shit and the landrush stuff got a bit tedious too), didn't mind the arcady handling, but a little too easy for me as a result.
I really liked Dirt Rally, still do, still play it! Sim handling means I'm constantly on edge and makes me feel like such a boss when I pull off a positive sector on a stage.
Both games are great in their own right. Codie's sound design is second to none as well, so Dirt 4 will have that going for it. If they say they're including both handling types, its almost two games in one. But the execution needs to be spot on for the sim side of things.
either way - day one for me!
