racing! Ready yourself for the high-speed

Gameplay[edit]
The game features season statistics along with the "Legends Mode" that first appeared in MotoGP 2, a "Brake Assist" feature that helps novice players in taking corners, a "Multiplayer Mode" that allows up to four players to play simultaneously, a "Cockpit View" that shows the action from the perspective of your selected cycle's rider, and five new real-life circuits in addition to the ten from the two previous games for a total of fifteen (as well as all-new "Fantasy Tracks") - and it also covers the only MotoGP season in which both two-stroke and four-stroke cycles were pitted against each other.
