Sega Rally 3 contains three racing modes: World Championship, Quick Race and Classic. World Championship mode is a single player game which takes place across three stages (Tropical, Canyon and Alpine) and largely follows the format of the previous Sega Rally arcade games. The game is a 22 car race played to a time limit, and the player's starting position for one race is determined by their finishing position in the previous race. Unlike the previous games in the series, each race contains two laps. If the player finishes the third stage in first place, they are able to play a head to head race on the bonus Lakeside track.

Quick Race is a single or multiplayer mode, in which six cars (containing any mixture of human and AI players) race three laps on any of the three World Championship courses. In World Championship and Quick Race modes, players can choose from one of six licensed cars from Citroen, Ford, Mitsubishi, Peugeot, Subaru and Suzuki. Additionally, in Quick Race players can choose two secret cars: the Bowler Nemesis and the McRae Enduro.

The Toyota Celica and Lancia Delta HF Integrale cars from the original Sega Rally can be used in this mode exclusively.

Much of ''Sega Rally 3'' is shared with the earlier ''Sega Rally Revo'', with the three main courses being lifted from the latter game (with some modifications and different starting positions) as well as the music, voices and sound effects. The interface is also very similar, though ''Sega Rally 3'' has fewer options and has strict time limits due to its arcade nature. The game runs at 60FPS at a 720p resolution as opposed to the 30FPS of ''Sega Rally Revo'', and when driving in third person, chooses to position the camera rigidly behind the car, as opposed to the looser mechanism seen in ''Revo''.
The game was developed simultaneously with [[Sega Rally Revo]]. During development, it went under the codename of 'Super Challenge'. The game runs at 60 FPS at a 720p resolution as opposed to the 30 frames per second of its console counterpart due to the power of the new Sega Europa-R arcade hardware.

Sega Rally 3 is a 2008 arcade racing game released by Sega Amusements Europe. The game was developed by Sega Racing Studio in co-operation with Sega Amusements, Sega Europe and Sega Mechatro for the Sega Europa-R arcade hardware. It serves as a direct sequel to Sega Rally 2 and was made simultaneously with Sega Rally Revo. During the development and licencing process in location tests, it went under the codename of Super Challenge.

Gameplay

Sega Rally 3 contains three racing modes: World Championship, Quick Race and Classic. World Championship mode is a single player game which takes place across three stages (Tropical, Canyon and Alpine) and largely follows the format of the previous Sega Rally arcade games. The game is a 22 car race played to a time limit, and the player's starting position for one race is determined by their finishing position in the previous race. Unlike the previous games in the series, each race contains two laps. If the player finishes the third stage in first place, they are able to play a head to head race on the bonus Lakeside track.

Quick Race is a single or multiplayer mode, in which six cars (containing any mixture of human and AI players) race three laps on any of the three World Championship courses. In World Championship and Quick Race modes, players can choose from one of six licensed cars from Citroen, Ford, Mitsubishi, Peugeot, Subaru and Suzuki. Additionally, in Quick Race players can choose two secret cars: the Bowler Nemesis and the McRae Enduro.

Classic mode is a single or multiplayer mode which takes place on the Desert '95 track, recreated from the original Sega Rally arcade game. In single player, the mode is a head to head race against a single AI opponent, while multiplayer allows for up to six human players with no AI opponents. The Toyota Celica and Lancia Delta HF Integrale cars from the original Sega Rally can be used in this mode exclusively.

Much of Sega Rally 3 is shared with the earlier Sega Rally Revo, with the three main courses being lifted from the latter game (with some modifications and different starting positions) as well as the music, voices and sound effects. The interface is also very similar, though Sega Rally 3 has fewer options and has strict time limits due to its arcade nature. The game runs at 60FPS at a 720p resolution as opposed to the 30FPS of Sega Rally Revo, and when driving in third person, chooses to position the camera rigidly behind the car, as opposed to the looser mechanism seen in Revo.
