Menus are smooth and stylish, and scenes in between races mimic televised MotoGP footage. The inclusion of challenges with ‘historic’ riders like Casey Stoner and Valentino Rossi is a nice feature. However, I would have loved to see a bit more personality in the title. The ability to customise your outfits and bike are nice, but much of the UI and commentary would be right at home in FIFA. Developer Milestone made true on many promises a year ago with MotoGP 19, continuing to build on Unreal Engine 4 and looping in must-haves like dedicated. MotoGP 20 marks Milestones most ambitious instalment in the franchise so far, with an April release date, a revamped career mode and return of historic bikes. Sure, it’s clean, but it feels a bit soulless. A touch of Monster Energy Supercross’ enthusiasm would be welcome. In a return to form for the franchise, the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X versions of MotoGP 20 run at a steady 60FPS. From the footage I’ve seen, they look absolutely gorgeous. Little details like rubber building up on the tarmac as the weekend progresses provide a real sense of immersion. Unlike in MotoGP 20 though you can pause mid-race and view a replay if you missed a certain piece of action, such as one of your riders falling and retiring from the race. Unfortunately, I reviewed MotoGP 20 on the Nintendo Switch, which does its best to maintain 30FPS. The team and bike upgrade mechanics for your junior teams are even more simplified versions of what you get when racing yourself in MotoGP, but there’s still a lot of fun to be had with the junior team management. The hyper-realistic art-style is scaled down to get the game running on the portable console. Although it mostly holds up, there are some rough edges where compromises have had to be made.
