Gravel Reviews
Gravel focused on presenting off-road racing game and Milestone studio has succeeded already in producing a fun and entertaining racing game, but it has a very bad and bland graphics. The game does not have many cars and tracks, which may make you prefer other games too.

When all is said and done, all that has to be said about Gravel, is that it is likely going to be one of your favourite titles of this generation, if only you are willing to give it a fighting chance and won’t judge it by the studio’s prior efforts.
Gravel does precisely one thing well and that’s be a competent, fun racer that’s worth checking out if you’re looking to just find exactly that with very little else sprinkled on top.
Gravel is a great racing game that's packed with to the brim with things to do.
GRAVEL does just enough to keep you interested enough to keep working through each of the episodes and trying to dethrone each of the champions of their respective disciplines. It just doesn’t do anything we haven’t seen before, even with the conceit of a TV show being the driving force. Milestone has the foundation of something great with GRAVEL. It is a solid first entry that needs some more attention to its delivery of the campaign structure to make it more fully realized as a TV show for future installments.
Gravel takes a fun experience and makes it feel dull with lacklustre AI and a vehicle unlock system that removes any joy from getting a new car.
Gravel's vehicle selection is small but well-chosen, the tracks are interesting to drive the rally classics around and online multiplayer is simple to use and well implemented
All in all, Gravel, despite its best efforts, isn’t a bad game. It’s rough, annoying, hard on the eyes, and unpolished. But it is still fun to play and for a quick and dirty arcade session, there is a lot worse out there.
So to finish this all up, I’m going to say one final time that this is possibly my favourite game of 2018 so far. It holds high esteem in my book. It may have a few problems but I highly recommend playing this game.
In general, therefore, we want to say that the work done by Milestone for Gravel is definitely good; although there is some note to do, in fact, we are ahead of a nice and fun title. We like the style, the races and even the tracks. Definitely improved, but certainly very enjoyable by most. In short, an interesting game that deserves to be played!

Gravel is a fun arcade racer – something I've not seen many of in the last few years. It looks and plays great on the Ps4 Pro and offers a tonne of content that will keep you going for a long time. There are plenty of licenced cars which you can use to race through some well-designed areas either against the CPU, other players or solo via Time-Attack; however, the setup of the game (the TV show) feels a little 'basic'. It's great if you love the old-school 'pick a race and go' style, but if you are looking for more depth in the campaign then you may be disappointed.
We have fun in each session and it makes us want to keep playing but the joking physics at times, his lack of technical ambition, his crazy AI or his repetitive mechanics to advance in career mode muddle the experience.

Gravel is an above average arcade game that doesn't seem to know what it wants to be. Milestone should probably slow down the pace and focus on quality, not quantity

Milestone's work with this new automotive arcade is definitely above expectations.

Gravel succeeds in delivering an excellent arcade experience packed with a robust career mode, along with the best of classic and modern off-road cars, a diverse list of tracks and sceneries, and a simple and satisfying gameplay.

Gravel is a great racing experience for veterans and newcomers alike, with so many tracks and cars to unlock this game will keep you busy for a while. However being unable to find an online match has me worried that the replay value of this game isn't very good after you've played through the meat of the single-player game.
The fun you can have with Gravel outweighs its shortcomings.
All in all, Gravel is a mediocre racing game; one that cannot challenge any of the top quality racing titles currently available on the market. The game has many qualities that the other recent release from Milestone enjoyed, but unlike the motorcycle racing genre, car racing genre is too crowded.

This is a flawed racing game that can still be fun if you can overlook some of its flaws. It suffers from a lack of polish and underwhelming visuals but the driving mechanics are simple to grasp making it easier to recommend for a newcomer to racing games.
Gravel offers relaxing off-road experience with arcade feeling. Milestone created enought content, but tracks are mostly boring.
