![]() The difficulty level of AI racers, for instance, can be set either at Very Easy all the way up to hard, and you can set the gear shifting to semi-automatic or entirely manual. Luckily, MXGP 2020 presents players with a whole suite of options to let you tailor the experience exactly to your tastes. The ultimate goal, though, is to get through a championship without having to use it as a crutch. Plus, because there’s no racing line first-timers can stick to, at times it can be all too tempting to just rewind on a section of a track until you get it right. The career mode is surprisingly sparse in terms of content and depth anyway, but all the game does to tutorialise you into how racing works is pop the controls onscreen during your first race. I say this because if there’s one thing MXGP 2020 does poorly it’s onboarding. This can be activated at any time to attempt a turn or jump correctly, and is still the best learning tool for those new to simulation racers. Luckily, as is the case in most Milestone racing games, the rewind feature is baked into MXGP 2020’s career portion and quick race modes. Because while there’s always the temptation to just hold the trigger down and do your best to reach top speed on a straight, not knowing when to appropriately brake or shift your weight on the motorcycle will almost certainly lead to a crash. ![]() ![]() The first thing to say about MXGP 2020 is that it’s very much a faithful simulation of the motocross championship experience. This remains the case for the most recent effort, MXGP 2020, which may have already released last December on last-gen systems but is now ready to let players tear up the track on PS5. There’s simply a lot more fun you can have with a game based on the MXGP and MX2 bike categories compared to conventional MotoGP, not least because of the extra dynamism of tracks and the slightly different terrain types. By now the developers over at Milestone have proved themselves to be masters of the motorcycle racer, but I’ve always had a slight sense that the MXGP series has been where its creative heart lies most.
