A documentary format worth expanding and repeating, more assists, and the same rough but rewarding racing.

‎MotoGP 22 is a set-up that leaves a very good taste in its playable aspects. The driving feel is fantastic and the new modes bring some freshness. However, we are facing a continuous delivery in several aspects. Even with everything, it is still a reference that motorcycling fans will enjoy in style.‎

MotoGP 22 is a "sidestep" for the series, in a year substantially of transition towards a more intense narrative of the race atmosphere, proposes a slightly more simulative riding model than last year, but with a too steep learning curve and some accessibility problems. Anyway NINE Season 2009 is worth the ride, because is a brillaint take on narrative and documentary in a videogame.

You get an improved experience all round with MotoGP 22 – it is still hard as nails, but the nostalgic documentary mode and solid raft of modes makes this a crucial purchase for fans of two wheeled racing.

Although Milestone has cobbled together three similar games in a short period of time, there's no doubt that MotoGP 22 is the unchallenged number one. The game shines both on and off the track, especially the deep career mode and the successful story part based on the 2009 MotoGP season. Hesitant computer opponents, some lack of variety and dreary soundstage lower the experience a bit, but in the end the glorious driving feel wins.

MotoGP 22 is probably one the most immersive racing simulators on the market, with the developers Milestone paying careful attention to detail throughout.

MotoGP 2022 adds a couple of new features but is relatively unchanged from the previous release. Graphical differences are minor, which is fine as the base experience is solid. Milestone has taken steps to make the game more accessible without losing the aspects of it that the hard-core crowd enjoys. If there was ever a time for the uninitiated to dive in, this year’s edition is it.

By adding details that increase realism and a mode like NINE-Season 2009 to a solid game frame, MotoGP 22 takes an evolutionary step in the right direction. The general improvement compared to the past may appear less deep than expected, but those who love MotoGP will also love MotoGP 22.

It is difficult to have anything to complain about the content offer of MotoGP 22: there is everything that the two-wheeler enthusiast could wish for.

As such, MotoGP is a very strong racing game that truly captures the feel of MotoGP as a series. Although it's not perfect and lacks the sheen that comes with a bigger budget, the minute to minute racing is fantastic, and its minor issues here and there are far outweighed by the positives.

MotoGP 22 is a good game, but it lacks new stuff, and the visuals are starting to feel quite old. The only highligh is the Nine mode that letf you play the 09 season in a narrative way, kind of like an interactive Netflix series.

Tough to get into at first, MotoGP 22 soon starts to pay dividends once you get the hang of its tricky handling and various nuances. The superb 'NINE Season 2009' mode, meanwhile, is worth the price of admission alone.

MotoGP 22 is better than several of its predecessors, but leaves most of its potential wasted.

While I understand that motorcycle racing in many areas of the world is still considered a niche sport, instead of sitting idly by and accepting that, Milestone is looking to change that by offering an excellent tutorial system to make the sport a bit more accessible through its licensed game. MotoGP 22 offers so much to the racing fan in terms of a deep career mode, the ability to relive some of the sport's history, a solid online suite of options, and the ability to create some fantastic logos and graphics with a powerful customization creator. MotoGP 22 is a title that should be in every racing fan's rotation of games, and it is finally a great year to make the leap for those who have been reluctant due to a lack of knowledge of the sport.

Despite improving in some key aspects, MotoGP 22 still needs a better IA and could be more pleasing to the eye with its graphics. The Nine Seasons mode is a compelling one, still, and the game is recommended for all MotoGP fans.

But for us more experienced players or motorcycle enthusiasts MotoGP 22 sadly plays it too safe, with sterile, flat textured race tracks and very little variation between the different motorcycles, there just isn’t a lot to offer for those who aren’t massive fans of MotoGP as a sport that other motorcycle simulators already do, and in most cases better.
