Ride 5 Reviews
RIDE 5 sets the bar for motorbike simulation on a console in the same way that Gran Turismo 7 does for cars. In my view, GT7 is this game's nearest neighbour, and that is good company. The level of detail present here is admirable, not just in the high-quality visuals for the bikes and environments but also in the detail, the little things like the handling, the options available to tweak your experience and the like. It's clear a significant amount of effort, care and love has gone into RIDE 5 – this is not everybody's cup of tea by a long shot, but this is an impressive title nonetheless.
With spectacular sound, well-balanced gameplay and a highly addictive career mode, RIDE 5 proves to be a quality successor. Its weather technology compensates for the fact that the asphalt sometimes does not stand out in photo mode.

RIDE 5 reflects Milestone's great passion for the bike world very well. The amount of content, circuits, and bikes is admirable, the new Career mode is huge while the Race Creator further extends a longevity that shows no weaknesses, and lastly the bikes convey a truly satisfying feeling. Without any doubts, this is the best motorbike simulator in a long time, a must for all fans.

Newcomers will struggle to get started in Ride 5, but returning fans are in for a treat. Although the game doesn’t have much going for it outside of career mode, Ride 5 still produces a great hardcore racing experience.
Although Ride 5 is simply an improvement on the previous title it manages to keep the level of quality, variety and realism high.
