The game features input from nine-time World Rally Champion Sébastien Loeb, who had also won the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb and competed in the 2013 European Rallycross Championship season. Loeb had previously had some technical input with Gran Turismo 5, also appearing virtually as a mentor in that game's rally mode. The game features around 300 km of tracks, with 8 different rallies, 5 rallycross tracks and the Pikes Peak track, as well as over 50 car models.
The game does not feature content related to Loeb's involvement with the Dakar Rally, World Touring Car Championship or the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
A playable demo featuring the Rallye Sanremo was released on the PlayStation Store and the Xbox Games Store on December 24, 2015. As of New Years Day, the demo is not available on Steam.

The game had mixed to positive reviews. Hobby Consolas said that it had "lots of championships and events that show that a rally simulator can be very diverse. Easy to play but very punishing at times and with a graphical "furnish" far from other genre peers that make some impact in the final experience". Playstation Universe added that "Sébastian Loeb Rally Evo offers a fun rallying experience that WRC fans will enjoy, especially with the grand variety of tracks at your disposal. Despite issues with both graphics and physics, Sébastian Loeb Rally Evo is a fun drive and a great starter game for those interested in the World Rally Championship."
The game reached number 19 in the UK sales charts.
