Monster Energy Supercross: The Official Videogame Reviews
Monster Energy Supercross is a solid driving experience and a good adaptation of Supercross in the videogame world. However, Milestone's work feels lazy and the game does not seem complete, so it makes the player want more.

What there is to say about Monster Energy Supercross is that it is an improvement from Milestone on the MXGP series. It certainly can be gripping and it's more than challenging once you get the settings right. Racing through your own career is pretty fun to say the least. The only thing is that, like other Milestone titles, it has it's issues that could do with working through.
Monster Energy Supercross – The Official Videogame is the focused and highly-energetic brother to MXGP, and is helped by the licensing of Monster Energy. The look and feel of the game is unmatched, and while the performance could use some tweaking, the game is just fun to dig grooves into the dirt. I’m not sure what could be done to improve what Monster Energy Supercross – The Official Videogame brings to the table, but Milestone has their work cut out for them for such a strong first entry.
Monster Energy Supercross - The Official Videogame wants you in for the ride but forgets that getting basic fundamentals wrong can be the cause of frustration. The series has turned the bikes in the right direction, it now just needs to fix a few flat tyres to get it up to speed.
With a little patience and some interest in off-road biking, this game is worth playing. Without these, you should avoid it.
Monster Energy Supercross - The Official Videogame is a competent dirt bike game that will properly give you all the thrills of the real deal, in a fashion you can customize to your own liking. However, considering this game is priced as a full AAA experience, we can't but think that all the content from the remaining versions that got cut from the Switch retail release is not enough to justify this version's portable aspect. So buyers beware: you're picking up a brand new dirt bike with several key components missing, which is a somewhat troublesome trend on third-party Switch releases.
Monster Energy Supercross: The Official Videogame may not be quite as fulfilling as it was expected to be, but it is still a capable racer that has enough in the tank to provide at least a couple of hours enjoyment at a time.
When I first previewed Monster Energy Supercross many months ago, I thought it was a fun racing game with a lot of potential. I still think it's fun, but this first run at the license from Milestone doesn't come anywhere close to meeting its real potential.
Monster Energy Supercross is a step ahead in mastering Unreal Engine by Milestone. It is overall a fun, spectacular and intense motocross game. The sense of speed is great and the action, although more arcade than MXGP, is always tense and gripping. Unfortunately, its great potential is undermined by the lack of polish, AI balance and some poor design choices, which limit its sense of progression.

Monster Energy Supercross is a very deep experience to both those new to the genre and fans of Milestone's previous work. There is not only a lot of content but also the ability to create and share newly created content with the community which will help prolong the life of the title. It takes a while to get used to the controls if you have not played a similar game in the past (as it isn't your typical racer), but once you know what you're doing, it's such a blast to play solo and competitively online.
A solid first entry in the series. If you're a Supercross fan then you'll easily get knee deep into the excellent track editor and have good fun hurtling around its muddy tracks.
As much as I tried to get into and enjoy Monster Energy Supercross, the game was determined to kill my enjoyment at every corner.
A lot of Monster Energy Supercross' issues on their own really aren't too bad, but when taken all at once, the game is disappointing. Many of the problems – like load times – are more quality of life issues than game problems, so if Milestone could tidy this stuff up then it'd go a long distance. But it's the inconsistent physics that are the real kicker, and detract from the generally acceptable presentation and decent selection of modes. It's better than nothing, and North American supercross fans will surely appreciate the fact that the title exists at all, but it could be so much better.
In general, however, we can say that we are in front of an excellent title, full of content and really nice to play; the physics of the collisions, the pilots, the bikes and the details are treated to the maximum, the customization is always vast and even the editor of the circuits gives that extra touch to the game. In short, a gem that will certainly please lovers of cross-country cars!

Monster Energy Supercross in one of very few solid Motor Racing games that has been developed in recent years, and I strongly suggest that you give it a try if you are a racing fan. Even with very inconsistent servers and poor audio design and music, the game still offers a lot in terms of gameplay and visuals, and with continued support from developers, it can become a great racing franchise.

Monster Energy Supercross demonstrates that Milestone can take even more advantage of the Unreal Engine 4 and that they are well on their way to realizing their potential. However, the studio continues to make historical mistakes presenting the same playable formula excessively supported in the Career mode without accompanying it of anything relevant.

Monster Energy Supercross is a good title, that can grant to all the supercross fans hours of fun. Threre are some technicals problems, and the carreer isn't brilliant, but the gameplay is truly solid.

The physics dynamics of driving on a dry surface versus blasting and sliding through mud changes your approach to racing on a track.
Milestone has a solid footing with Monster Energy Supercross – The Official Videogame. If the team offers continual support that carries over to new titles, this series has the potential to be something special.
A racing game that will surely satisfy the Supercross' fans, even with some technicals and artistic flaws.
