MOTOGP 21 RELEASE TIME HOW TO
Once you develop confidence in your bike’s front-end, and start discovering how to chuck it into corners without understeering wildly, proceedings start to become thrilling. The latest iteration of the game further ramps up the realism of aspects like tyre degradation, and it’s vital to give yourself a chance in the races by balancing your bike’s trade-off between tyre-wear and top-end power. Happily, bike-handling and circuit authenticity are two areas in which MotoGP 21 excels. Putting in the laps soon gives you a feel for your bike’s handling, while choosing not to skip the practice sessions helps you learn each circuit. MotoGP 21’s determination to emulate the real-life season (you can even choose between the 2021 calendar that was supposed to take place and the near-identical one which actually hapepened) means that you can pound round the laps at tracks like Losail in Qatar for pre-season testing, before participating in all the practice sessions at each circuit the calendar takes in.

MOTOGP 21 RELEASE TIME FULL
While you can jump into quick races on bikes from all three MotoGP formulae – the full MotoGP beasts, Moto2 or Moto3 – the main career mode is thoroughly flexible, and even offers elements of team management if that’s your thing. Structurally, this is every bit as impressive as the F1 games, offering all manner of authentic possibilities. There’s a tutorial, but it covers the basics of racing in a pretty cursory manner, while going into great detail on the more hardcore subject of bike setup and reinforcing the impression that MotoGP 21’s target audience is seasoned enthusiasts, rather than novices. You can also turn on a racing line indicator which is so discreet as to be almost unassuming. MotoGP 21 does pay lip service to novices though and will even offer to brake automatically for you at each corner, although that just leaves you feeling as though you aren’t in control.

In the game, as in real life, bikes are hard to ride fast you have to brake early for the corners and modulate the throttle very carefully when exiting them. It must be noted that this is very much a game which preaches to the converted: if you’re not an existing MotoGP fan, and are merely bike-curious, you’re likely to find playing MotoGP 21 a tad tricky and frustrating – even if you’re used to playing racing games of the four-wheeled variety.
