To coincide with this week’s X Games 17, Codemasters has released the X Games Asia Track Pack for DiRT 3 on Xbox Live Marketplace (400 MS Points), Games For Windows Marketplace (400 MSP), and PlayStation Network ($4.99). The release of the new DiRT 3 X Games Asia Track Pack coincides with X Games 17 which begins July 28th in Los Angeles, with Ken Block and Tanner Foust (who both star in DiRT 3) going for gold in Rally and Rallycross. The X Games Asia Track Pack extends DiRT 3’s Rallycross content with two multi-surface set in Shibuya, the heart of Tokyo. This new X Games event is playable in single player, split-screen and online multiplayer.

To celebrate X Games 17 and the launch of the X Games Asia Track Pack, Codemasters is also running a Double Fanbase program for the duration of the competition. From midnight on July 27 until midnight on Sunday July 31, all players will earn double XP as they play DiRT 3.

Codemasters is also adjusting some of the game’s online playlists. Following feedback from fans and extensive data mining of DiRT 3 play statistics on EGOnet, a number of updates are being made, including the introduction of staggered starts for all Rally and Trailblazer stages in Pro Tour mode.
