“MotoGP™22 continues the great legacy of the franchise, adding amazing new features to the game. (NINE) Season 2009 is a brand-new mode to re-live one of the most incredible seasons in MotoGP™ history. Players will enjoy a real docu-film narrated by Mark Neale, director of the best MotoGP™ documentaries, with more than 50 minutes of original footage from the 2009 Season. But players won’t just witness history, they will be part of it too! In fact, the fate of the race will be in the player’s hands thanks to dedicated challenges to live again and play the most iconic moments. Players will find themselves in the boots of legendary riders such as Rossi, Pedrosa, Stoner, and Lorenzo, trying to replicate history!
This year, MotoGP™22 also added new features dedicated to the newcomers, who are not familiar with the series, and to those who simply want to improve their style and master the gameplay mechanics. With the Revised Tutorial and the new MotoGP™ Academy, now everyone can become a champion.”
“MotoGP™22 is also enhanced in every aspect. For those who are looking for a true next-generation experience, here’s what the game has to offer:
A level of realism never seen before: new face animations, improved 3D characters, and pits
Ride Height Device: players will be able to manually manage the locking mechanism of the RHD and control the compression of the bike’s suspensions
Enhanced tracks: surfaces have been improved to have a better rideability
Improved Suspension system: refined for a better feeling when passing over curbs
Tyres and Brakes temperatures are now affected by the slipstream, both for players and AI
Tyre deformation: a more realistic tyre behavior making the experience even closer to reality
MotoGP™22 includes also the full 2022 season with all the official content, including 120+ official riders and 20+ official circuits. Additionally, 70+ Historic Riders and bikes are available to bring back all the emotions of MotoGP™ legends.”
