Three series of video games with the official license of the World Rally Championship (WRC) have been released.

The first series were published by Sony Interactive Entertainment who owned the WRC license in the early 2000s. These titles were all made by British developer Evolution Studios between 2001 and 2005. The series consists of five original games released exclusively for the Sony PlayStation 2 console, and one port for the Sony handheld PSP, all based on the World Rally Championship seasons from 2001 to 2005, using official drivers, cars and locations.

The license then remained dormant until 2009 when Italian publisher Black Bean Games signed a four-year licensing contract. The second series then followed, which included five games published by Black Bean Games and developed by Italian developer Milestone between 2010 and 2013. These included four official WRC games based on seasons from 2010 to 2013, as well as a licensed arcade title, all of them released for Microsoft WindowsPlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

In July 2013 it was announced that the license was picked up by the French publisher Bigben Interactive. Bigben hired Paris-based developer Kylotonn to work on the third series of games, which started in 2015 with WRC 5 and continued with WRC 6 in 2016 and WRC 7 in 2017, based on the 2015, 2016, and 2017 World Rally Championship seasons. All three were released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
