    For me the worst MXGP.I have never seen a more clumsy, slow and trembling motorcycle in my life, any resemblance to reality is coincidence, it can be called slowcross. The graphics are pitiful and the surface looks like a simple texture. I hope that Milestone changes course next year and follows the path of MXGP 2019 and Supercross 2. Incredibly with the Motogp saga it gets better and better.

    This game is fun in the beginning but after a while it gets VERY dry and annoying. I preordered the game and honestly very much regret it. It comes down to some very bad physics,AI, and other frustrating things.multiple times I will turn a little to set up for the next corner in the air note that I’m barely turning and as soon as I land my bike just goes flat for absolutely no reason and IThis game is fun in the beginning but after a while it gets VERY dry and annoying. I preordered the game and honestly very much regret it. It comes down to some very bad physics,AI, and other frustrating things.multiple times I will turn a little to set up for the next corner in the air note that I’m barely turning and as soon as I land my bike just goes flat for absolutely no reason and I wreck. Speed wobbles for absolutely no reason also it just happens for like no reason at all.Some burms/ruts your rider won’t even lean into and it’s almost like a tiny wall on the track that you can’t lean into at all no matter how slow you go. Now on to the AI I’ve watched the AI make moves that make no sense like,cutting the track but god forbid I go a inch off the track and get reset. Also how whoever is in first at the beginning of the race they pull away from the rest of the pack way too fast. Also the AI is just ridiculously fast like you have to be COMPLETELY mistake free or your most likely screwed with the game already making that hard enough with it’s awful physics overall don’t recommend this game wait for the next supercross… Expand

    MXGP 21 is a tough game to review. Riding on dirt tracks is a much harder thing to simulate than doing so on paved ones. However, one can only judge a game by how much enjoyment it creates. For myself, I was often more frustrated than elated. Though the game includes a bevy of options to make MXGP 21 accessible to everyone, it’s a niche racing genre that will appeal mainly to dedicated fans. The other big knock on this game is the changes from the 2020 version are only incremental.

    MXGP 2021 is a fun game for MXGP fans, but it doesn't even bother to try doing something new.

    Milestone has the reins of motorcycle racing in hand, which it manages with enviable confidence, raising the level of the motocross sub-genre like never before but at the same time not being particularly interested in pushing the franchise in a new direction.
