A demo for Codemaster’s upcoming off-road racer Colin McRae: DiRT 2 is now available on the European PlayStation Store and Xbox Live Marketplace.

Dive into two events in the demo, both available to play in single player offline and 8 vehicle online multiplayer. The Trailblazer event sees players stepping behind the wheel of a Mitsubishu Eclipse GT and negotiating the challenging Moroccan terrain on a point-to-point track filled with both hairpins and flat-out straights.

Players can also race at the Ensenada Port circuit in Baja California in the Landrush event, taking on this 8 player race over bumps and jumps in the West Coast Choppers Stuka Trophy Truck.

Colin McRae: DiRT 2 will be available for the Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, DS and PSP across the US on the 8th of September with European territories following on the 10th and the UK on the 11th.
