This morning, Microsoft announced that the PC port of its arcade-style rally racing game Rallisport Challenge is now available in North American stores. Developed by Sweden-based Digital Illusions, the game was first released for the Xbox last March, and it was announced for the PC at this year's E3 in Los Angeles.

Changes made to Rallisport Challenge for the PC version include the addition of LAN- and Internet-based multiplayer options, higher screen resolutions, and support for force feedback joysticks and wheels. The game has 48 tracks that comprise traditional rally racing, ice racing, hill climbs, and rally cross events. Additionally, Rallisport Challenge includes nearly 30 cars from real-world manufacturers like Toyota, Opel, Mitsubishi, and Subaru.

Rallisport Challenge is also the first Xbox game that has been ported to the PC. For more on the game, be sure to take a look at our previous coverage.
