    MotoGP 23 is the qualitative leap that the Milestone series needed. We are not talking about revolutions, it would be unrealistic to think so, but about consistent improvements in all the characteristic aspects of the title, from the simulation verve through an engaging career, from a high-profile technical sector to the physical and mental sensations of the race, where the AI exhibits new behaviors although some issues still persist.

    MotoGP 23 has added dynamic weather to make racing a whole new beast, and the Career mode is a solid feature to keep you hooked.

    This year’s entry adds the new features fans were expecting, but also makes it more accessible for new players, which can be the key for some people who were waiting to give the series a try.

    As an annual sports title, it can be hard to judge whether this is the year for newcomers to jump in. MotoGP 23 has a truly engrossing handling model that does emphasise every twitch from the beast you're riding. The racing is competitive and the career mode can still remain compelling, even if I feel the some of the new additions are a bit superfluous. Veterans should feel right at home and the Neural AI does present a comfortable way for newcomers to enter, even if I do consider it too intrusive, at times.

    The latest installment brings the entire season 2023 update and, as expected, some improvements in all aspects of the game, while new players get a couple of innovative help systems that may finally allow them to get a little more serious in this very demanding motorcycle simulator.

    MotoGP 23 is not a game for everybody, and even the fans of arcade or semi-arcade racing will probably have a hard time enjoying it, even though there are improvements compared to last year's release, it still doesn't offer enough even for the simulation fans to jump on it right away.

    Motorcycle enthusiasts take note, with MotoGP 23 we are replaying the most important motorcycle championship. This in a traditional way similar to previous parts. The AI has improved and the addition of sprint races and dynamic weather, as well as LiveGP does the game justice. Yet we also have to deal with a new accessibility system that is not well balanced, the game can crash and the AI is just a little too good making it unrealistic. That being said, MotoGP 23 offers a lot of content to enjoy.

    In spite of the improvements in career mode and the addition to dynamic weather (the latter being and annoyingly long-awaited feature), theIn spite of the improvements in career mode and the addition to dynamic weather (the latter being and annoyingly long-awaited feature), the lack of classical bikes and riders and a story mode (something like Season 09 in MotoGP 22) makes this a disappointing iteration of the series. Sure, it's nice to have new objectives in career mode (a game mode that has been largely overlooked throughout the series) and the flag-to-flag races can add a strategic factor in some cases. But Season 09 was the highest point in the entire franchise and I was hoping to see a follow-up of that mode in the new game. And not being able to race with Vale, Doohan, Hayden, Stoner, Biaggi or Barros is very sad. Expand
