It's been less than a year since the release of Dirt 2 but developer-publisher Codemasters is getting ready to reveal the first details on the next game in their off-road racing sim series. The company's communications director Rich Eddy has confirmed via his Twitpic account that Dirt 3 will make its trailer debut during TV coverage of the X Games this weekend on the ESPN cable network. You can see an image from the trailer above this post.

Dirt 2 came out for the PC in December 2009 (a few months after the console versions) and was the first PC title to support DirectX 11 graphics features out of the box.
