Trials Rising captures the franchise’s signature motorcycle platforming action along with the intense challenges that come with it. The developers have remained dedicated to the game’s iconic formula and complex gameplay but at the same time provided a training option for newcomers without sacrificing the game’s core systems. Players diving into the series will need to devote time to learn the tricky systems while veterans will be able to pick and play just as always. Trials Rising delivers an outstandingly challenging experience requires nothing but your best if you want to succeed.

Ubisoft manages to stay right on track with Trials Rising thanks to a wide selection of events and a varied customization system, along with in-game seasonal competitions and custom tracks that will have players coming back for more.

Overall, Trials Rising has a lot to offer, I found myself spending loads of hours just grinding through tracks and listening to awesome music while I was at it. From challenging courses and challenger events to filming movies while performing 12 backflips at once, Trials Rising offers the player just enough crazy to draw them in and keeps them occupied by making them feel like a racing god. This is by far one of my favorite Trials games to date. Definitely pick this one up if you want to spend a couple of hours at a time being a stuntman. After all, it is only US $34.99.

More than anything, Trials Rising does something that, ultimately, needs to be at the core of every game; it’s fun. It's zany, yet challenging, leaving it as a phenomenal follow-on for the Trails franchise.

Extreme sports video games have been very competitive, but have been losing attention from the videogame community.

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.

No doubt, comparing to the prequel, Trials Rising has a huge leap on both map design and gameplay. In the Trials Rising, you will have plenty of new stuff to try, such as the tandem mode. But still, we found some technique issues and network lags in it too. So hope Ubisoft will fix those things in the future soon.

I had a lot of fun with Trials Rising. There were so many times I would sit down to play for a 20-minute session, and then two hours would go by.

Although we drive a motorbike, Trials Rising sits between platform and puzzle games. It is spectacular and incredibly fun to play (even more in local or online multiplayer modes), but some elements, such as loot boxes system and loading times, spoil the experience.

Trials Rising surprises with creative Multiplayer approaches and also local elements for your next couch co-op sessions but doesn't manage to deliver a consistent singleplayer experience because of carelessly integrated Lootbox/XP Systems and overusing some tracks. The game still is the best Entry so far for newcomers and delivers a lot of challenges in the endgame for veterans.

For my money, Trials Rising is simply worth every penny. It's a rare game that I'm finished reviewing and still want to play.

Even with a clumsy progression system, Trials Rising's vibrant tracks, tight controls, and excellent tutorials are some of the best in the series.

Trials Rising adds a layer of annoyance on top of its already-winning formula, with its clunky world map and tedious level gating. Luckily, beneath that exterior it's just as electrifying as it's always been. The tracks are all a joy to race through as you chase landing on the leaderboard or overcoming tough Contracts. With its international approach and attention to detail, each level's design—from an art and gameplay perspective—feels like the best Trials has ever been.

Even if you never end up touching the head-to-head online multiplayer, local co-op, ambitious track editor, or any of the ensuing user-made creations, Trials Rising will keep you plenty busy at launch. Some of the out-of-level elements could use another pass, but progression pacing issues, loot-box bloat, and technical hiccups weren't enough to put me off what is ultimately another great Trials game.

While the gear system is full of unwanted fluff, Trials Rising is not. Its collection of well-designed tracks are wonderful playgrounds for its familiar yet still addictive physics-heavy biking gameplay. Familiarity in this case is not a bad thing because of how satisfying it is to improve your technique and overcome new challenges throughout its bevvy of additional modes.

Trials Rising takes us back to basics with the real world inspiring a long series of new and inventive trials, but losing none of the challenge or RedLynx's dark sense of humour. The menus are a bit messy, the loot boxes pointless, and it doesn't really advance the series, but when you get into it this is the series back to its addictive, infuriating, "one more go!" best.

A welcomed entry on a great serie, although it has some flaws on its campaign progression that makes the game a bit less funny than it should have been.
