The rally driving racer will hit US shores on September 8th with Europe to follow on September 10th and lastly September 11th will see the game finally landing in the UK.

The game's slated to release on Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, DS and PSP with a DirectX-enabled Games for Windows version out towards the end of the year.

Here's a bit of PR stuff from today's press release:

"The dates for the DiRTiest drive of the year were confirmed today as Codemasters announced that Colin McRae: DiRT 2, the next chapter in the legendary racing game series, will be shipping on September 8th in North America and release on September 10th across EPAC territories with a UK street date of September 11th.

"Colin McRae: DiRT 2 is set to take racing games to a new level with thrilling new race types, striking locations, big event atmosphere and a peerless line-up of super-charged speed machines, each selected to deliver spectacular, fast paced racing."

Should be great.
