MotoGP 20

We say it immediately and without too many turns of words: MotoGP 20 is the best game in the series and, in our humble opinion, one of the best two-wheeled racing ever.

MotoGP 20 gets even better, with an even more responsive, solid and fun gameplay that pushes you to improve continuously, lap after lap. The career mode adds an interesting managerial layer while the AI is not yet completely convincing. An excellent racing game, the best motorcycle video game on the market.

MotoGP 20 follows the trajectory of last year's chapter in a slavish way, but does practically better every turn and detaches with a decidedly superior skill. Milestone worked continuously and brought the fastest lap home thanks to the finishing of the already excellent artificial intelligence system and the introduction of an additional level of depth in the races.

Overall, MotoGP 20 is a game for the player looking to be as close to racing on a crotch rocket at 300 mph without having to go jump on a bike themselves. With a very deep career mode, a ton of customization options, several modes of play, and stunning graphics from beautiful locales, there is a lot to do for the gaming purist looking for a hyper-realistic recreation of one of racing’s finest leagues. For the gamer who wants to shoot rockets from the sunroof and pull a barrel roll over a lake, well, this is probably not for you.

MotoGP 20 is a game developed for its existing fans and the lack of any kind of tutorial is testament to that. This game isn’t trying to win over anyone new (or, if it is, isn’t going to do a good job with it). Instead, this is a cracking racing sim that’s a celebration of the MotoGP heroes through the Historic Mode and a gaze into a bizzaro alternative universe where the GP’s actually went ahead this year. It looks great, handles even better and once you’ve got used to its particular idiosyncrasies, it’s a whole lot of fun to play...Those first few hours are a doozy though.

MotoGP 20 offers more realism and better physics, as well as a remarkable graphical improvement. Because of this, it's one of the best titles in the franchise. It's not all great, though: the game's historical mode lacks substance, while the presence of bugs and glitches never ceases to annoy.

Racing is a constant challenge. Each corner, opponent, and straightaway is a chance to gain or lose positioning at a bevy of different points on the track. I’m used to that cadence, so to introduce new wrinkles that evolve and deepen the experience on and off the track is exciting. It feels like a new take on speed.

MotoGP 20 evolves little, but evolves well compared to its previous version. It gains a better team management, both cosmetic and mechanical damage as well as improved management of the motorcycle during the race. It is therefore a little deeper and more interesting. For the next version, in addition to an essential update, we are asking for paddocks that really live and enough to satisfy the thirst for knowledge of motorcycle enthusiasts.

MotoGP 20 is Milestone's series best episode in years, with a 60 fps mode, many improvements to the experience, a better AI, a very nice career mode and a really deep, customizable gameplay.

With MotoGP 20, Milestone has improved a lot on the tire physics and the way they degrade, and offers a lot of content. But the 10 month or so of development time are showing through the sheer number of bugs, and the elements taken from Codemaster's F1 series.

Milestone's latest outing with the MotoGP series continues to show improvement, albeit slightly, as the end of the console generation is approaching fast. While the game definitely has a steep learning curve for those new to the franchise, MotoGP 20 is a lot of fun and a true representation of the sport when there is no way to experience the live events right now at all.

Milestone keeps improving its most important franchise. MotoGP 20 doesn’t take any risks, but it has some new aerodynamic wings that give it some extra speed. And this year it is a great substitute for real motorbike races.

Fans of the competition have a solid game here, that everyone can enjoy regardless of their skill. The enhancements in the Career mode and the amount of game modes make it a great choice to enjoy this year’s virtual season.

A hit or miss racing sim. Great at what it needs to be, but takes a few hits in some areas. Deal breakers for some but not others.

MotoGP 20 represents an iterative upgrade over last year’s entry. Fans who skipped MotoGP 19 should definitely pick up this year’s release. The challenge is there for those who want it and taking care of the business side of being a professional rider can be its own reward. Taking a no-handholding approach will no doubt turn off new fans of the sport, but difficulty sliders help to ensure all but the most incompetent leaners will see a podium finish. There may not be many choices when it comes to MotoGP simulations, but thankfully what is here is choice.

MotoGP 20 bets again bets on realism in its driving and the requirement when competing with a delivery that incorporates various game modes as well as all the official licenses for the 2020 season. Take on the best riders on the best-known circuits of the International panorama.

MotoGP 20 adds improvements to get more realism in the series. It is an evolution in the right direction, considering previous entries, but it still has a big margin to improve.
