Let me tell you right now, some of the turns were real killers. If you so much as brush the white line that marks the edge of the track, you’re faced with not a penalty but an instant failure. You need to complete a course within the time limit – sounds easy, right? Nope. Milestone have clearly put in a great deal of time and effort into utilising real CAD and 3D scans to make the bikes as accurate and true to the real thing as possible.īefore you can even think about playing RIDE 4, you need to pass an admission test, which was frustratingly difficult, but you have to complete it before you’re granted access to the full game. The amount of detail in the bikes themselves is truly astounding. Racing games are generally known for their realistic graphics, and RIDE 4 is no different. It hits PS4, Xbox One and PC on October 8th but will come to next generation consoles in January 2021 as a stand-alone purchase or a free upgrade for those who have bought it on current generation consoles. The first game was released in 2015, and entries have been added every one to two years, so fans have never had to wait all that long for a new game. RIDE 4 is the fourth entry in one of the motorcycle series developed by Milestone. I’ve always enjoyed them though, and after recently getting the opportunity to preview DIRT 5, I thought I’d try out RIDE 4, even if comparing the two would be like comparing apples and oranges. One the one hand, they can be a whole lot of fun, providing a challenge that is unique to the genre, but at the same time, the lack of story makes me lose interest relatively quickly. I’ve always had mixed feelings when it comes to racing games.
