In-game, the truck could be used across all major modes, including Career, Arcade, and Multiplayer, except in events with vehicle-type restrictions. Its inclusion added a new dimension to the game’s off-road racing experience, particularly in Rally Raid and Stampede events where its rugged capabilities could shine.

The Ford F-150 Raptor PreRunner was featured in trailers and promotional materials highlighting its unique design and off-road prowess. Codemasters emphasized the vehicle’s real-world origins and customization pedigree, appealing to fans of both motorsport and automotive culture. The DLC was also included in certain editions of the game, such as the Amplified Edition, giving early adopters immediate access to the vehicle.

Reception to the Ford F-150 Raptor PreRunner DLC was generally positive among players who appreciated the addition of a distinctive and powerful off-road truck. The vehicle’s handling characteristics and visual detail were praised, and it quickly became a favorite for players tackling rugged terrain.

The DLC helped maintain momentum for the game’s post-launch support and reinforced its focus on variety and vehicle personality.
