![]() ![]() As such, we often get what feels like almost the same game each year, very similar to popular sports franchises such as Madden, MLB: The Show, or FIFA.ĭetailing some changes that are noticeable with the new MXGP 2021 video game, we can start with the AI in single player. Milestone sits in a tough spot because on one hand they would love to spend the time to make every detail perfect with the physics engine and along the lines of content, but they must release a new game every year in accordance with their contract with Infront Moto Racing. It’s a new game in the sense that the riders and teams are updated to 2021 and a few other details have changed, but it’s the same in many ways to the title immediately preceding it. Now here we are in 2021 and their eighth motocross game centered around the FIM Motocross World Championship is here with the release of MXGP 2021 on November 30. They originally broke in with their 2013 release MUD Motocross World Championship which feature official riders and tracks from MXGP for the first time in a game in nearly a decade, albeit the tracks were far from replicas. Which may be a bummer to people who don't follow the real sport, and don't care about playing the new schedule, but if you're serious about motocross - real or virtual - MXGP 2021: The Official Motocross Videogame, as always, will let you get down and dirty.It somehow still seems new that Milestone is even making motocross video games, but we are slowly approaching a decade of them putting a lot of time and effort into the motocross genre. But while it also has the usual improvements to the physics, controls, and under-the-hood aspects that every new edition of a racing game (hopefully) gets, this doesn't add anything new that really changes the game. In addition, the "Career" mode now lets you switch from an official real-world racing team to one you put together yourself. And, like most racing games these days, it gives you the option of having the physics be realistic or forgiving.Īs for what this new edition adds, not only does it have an updated schedule of events, but it also has four "Legacy Tracks," i.e., classic race events in Mexico, Italy, France, and Portugal from previous versions of the game. Like previous MXGP games, it boasts numerous online races, as well as a track editor so you can build and share your own courses. It also has a deep career mode, one-off events in which you race against the clock ("Time Attack") or computer-controlled competition ("Grand Prix"), as well as a mode in which you can play an official series of races or one you put together with up to twenty events ("Championship"). It also has tons of options, which not only allow you to customize your rider and the mechanics of your chosen bike, but the conditions of the races. Like previous installment in this series, MXGP 2021: The Official Motocross Videogame has you driving dirt bikes on dirty and muddy tracks that are full of tight turns, small bumps, and large leaps. Though it doesn't add anything radically new, this year's model is still a solid driving game for fans of dirt bike racing. During online races, communication between competitors isn't monitored, possibly exposiing players to inappropriate comments. Players can also choose between six different skin tones, though your rider always wears a helmet, so their skin color is largely irrelevant. ![]() It features bikes from such real companies as Yamaha, Kawasaki, and Honda, while the tracks feature signage by Monster Energy Drink, and the team sponsors (and thus their riders' outfits) include Red Bull and Rockstar Energy Drink. ![]() There are some commercial aspects to the game. For instance, while players can crash, the rider isn't shown being hurt or killed. For the most part, it has no objectionable content. Parents need to know that MXGP 2021: The Official Motocross Videogame is a downloadable dirt bike racing game for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC. Like many realistic racing games, this not only features branded bikes from such real-world brands as Honda, Kawasaki, and Yamaha, and track signage from Monster Energy Drink, but also sponsor-branded clothes for such beverages as Red Bull and Rockstar Energy Drink.
