Trials Rising is the sequel everybody was waiting for. The developers did the right thing by removing unnecessary mechanics of the previous game and adding a training section to get the new players going. On top of that, the innovative level design helps Trials Rising to become a top quality title like its predecessor. The only downside of the game may be the somehow boring and repetitive loot system that prevents it from becoming a masterpiece.

Even with the technical issues, and the disappointing progression system, the core mechanics and the smart level design made a fun experience filled with challenges along the way.

Trials is not an easy series, and Trials Rising continues the trend of making you as frustrated as possible. It is annoying but also strangely satisfying if you conquer a tough track. The progression system is a little flawed but with the new multiplayer mode, this feels like a complete package.

Trials Rising offers up a great set of tracks with a good difficulty curve and the most fleshed out multiplayer options the series has ever had, though forced grinding to unlock later tracks in the campaign and intermittent performance problems create the kind of barriers you didn't want to see.

Even with a few issues, Trials Rising is an excellent experience on Switch, filled with a slew of creative levels and a lot of reasons to replay and tweak your experience. Sure, the version on Switch might not be as pretty as other versions, but it's just as playable, aside from a few handheld framerate problems. Steady your hand and get to navigating the peaks and valleys of the world of Trials. Just make sure you're connected online.

Trials Rising is a solid video game with tight controls, fantastic maps and a great sense of humor. we didn't like its progression system though, we wished it kept things as simple as some of its past installments.

Trials Rising is a great sequel to Trials Franchise. it offers a fun and enjoyable gameplay and very well designed levels. deep tutorial level or skill mode is also very fun to play. in general, despite having some technical problems or loot box issues, Trials Rising is a game that you shouldn't miss if you like the series.

Trials Rising offers one of the best Trials-experiences yet. The levels are challenging, the multiplayer is simple but fun and the Track Editor is bigger than ever. Sadly the looting and pimping system is not rewarding and the game stutters sometimes.

Staying true to its essence, Trials Rising becomes friendlier to those less familiar with the title and manages to raise the bar of difficulty for the fanatics.

Keeping the tradition of the Trials games, Rising is a good step ahead in the future of the franchise. Keeps the mechanics intact and improves the design of the tracks, unfortunately the game can feel a little bit grindy in its progression and the content of the Loot Boxes (even if are only cosmetics) is rather disappointing.

Trials was expanded from a wonderfully purist arcade title to a big Game as a Service - including Lootboxes, real money integration and embarrassing ingratiation with the Fortnite target group. So at least I don't enjoy trials anymore, although the playful core belongs to the best of the series. Too bad about the great level design.

Trials Rising is the latest of the nearly-20 year phenomenon which, unfortunately, proves that less can indeed be more. The addition of the mid-game grind immediately dissuades the player from continuing and, coupled with the Switch version’s shortcomings, only highlights how great we used to have it.

Trials Rising still feels like an extension of Trials Evolution. It may not feel like the true big-budget sequel that many still crave for, but then Trials is an iterative series. Instead, Rising is more of the same just slightly more polished than what we’ve experienced before. It’s not going to break minds, it’s just a great motorsport puzzler.
