Critic Reviews
- All in all, MotoGP 21 makes some very calculated and deliberate steps forward this year, it’s clear Milestone wanted to focus on some of the nuances of the sport and bring a more realistic and involving experience to bear. Their awareness of new player onboarding to the series is admirable and the tutorials make for a great entry point for fence-sitters. An exceptional racing model and well-realized vision make MotoGP 21 a great option for fans of two wheels and may even win over some of the players on four.
Hylton Goodwin · May 14, 2021 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - MotoGP 21 is a great choice for newcomers to the series as it introduces a rigorous tutorial mode that will get you playing and having fun in no time. However, returning fans might be disappointed to see that this year’s MotoGP game is mostly the same as last year’s with an included bike retrieval mechanic. Overall MotoGP 21 is still the premier motorcycle racing simulator on the market with the best feeling racing experience for both newcomers and veterans.
Adrian Morales · May 12, 2021 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - The steady improvement of MotoGP continues with MotoGP 21. The move to the PlayStation 5 affords a bunch of benefits inherent to the latest generation of consoles, and having a race load in a handful of seconds is such a nice luxury. The inclusion of the DualSense’s haptics is appreciated, as a useful feature to tell when tires are losing their grip.
Paulmichael Contreras · May 06, 2021 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Admittedly MotoGP 19 had some pretty gnarly whiteouts during sunny races, so it's nice to see those retina-destroying moments are gone, but in its quest for a more realistic look MotoGP 21's lightning sucks some life out of the environments.
Phil Iwaniuk · May 05, 2021 Reviewed on PCRead full review - All of this new immersion really gets you leaning into those deep slants around corners that motorcycle racing is all about. Very exciting stuff! No doubt, I wouldn’t be as enthusiastic about this game if it weren’t for the PS5 DualSense controller. Milestone has gone the extra mile with MotoGP 21, even having an enhancement roadmap you can view on their website.
Lou Sytsma · May 05, 2021 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - MotoGP 21 is yet another slow, tentative step forward for the bleary-eyed series. There are clear improvements visually, with the physics, and with a few new features to aid realism. However, for every improvement, some areas are showing their age or have abandonment issues.
Chris Wray · Apr 27, 2021 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - One of the biggest new features, making you retrieve your bike after a spill, won’t be a good idea until the AI has to do it as well, but the tweaks to the bike handling are notable improvements to what is still most certainly the best-feeling MotoGP game to date.
Luke Reilly · Apr 23, 2021 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Thanks to gameplay tweaks and numerous new features, MotoGP 21 is undoubtedly the best and most accessible MotoGP game yet. There are still some areas that can be improved, however, such as career mode which can feel sterile at times.
Richard Seagrave · Apr 22, 2021 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - MotoGP 21 is a decent enough racing game. Some more innovation would have been nice but given the complications caused by COVID, I can understand the limitations in place.
Kurt Perry · Apr 22, 2021 Reviewed on PCRead full review - The much-hyped manual control over a rider after a fall is not quite as exciting as we hoped, but it doesn’t really matter; MotoGP 21 is an excellent rendition of one of the fastest and most exhilarating sports on the planet, proving not only to be one of Milestone’s all-time greats, but also one of the finest biking games in several years.
