For most, MotoGP is more than a sport, it’s a passion, and that can make a long break away from racing difficult for any fan. But with the ongoing global coronavirus outbreak, the challenges many face at the moment far outweigh those of simply missing out on sport or entertainment. And that’s why MotoGP is putting everything at fans’ fingertips to try and add a little sunshine back into a difficult daily life – starting, but by no means ending, with a Virtual Race.

Virtual Race

Soon, some of the sport’s biggest names – from Valentino Rossi (Movistar Yamaha MotoGP) and teammate Maverick Viñales to the likes of Fabio Quartararo (Petronas Yamaha SRT), Alex Rins (Team Suzuki Ecstar) and reigning Champion Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda Team) – will be back in action, but this time online playing the official MotoGP videogame from developer Milestone. As the MotoGP eSport Championship powers on for 2020, there is no better time to see what they’ve got in virtual reality… and on Sunday, we will!

The track for the Virtual Race will be the stunning Autodromo del Mugello, with six laps around the digital rendition of one of the world’s greatest racetracks set to decide the first ever Virtual Race winner. And just before it gets underway, a five-minute qualifying time attack will decide the grid. The whole event, including qualifying, will be broadcast at 15:00 (GMT +2) on Sunday the 29th of March on motogp.com, esport.motogp.com and selected TV broadcasters, as well as across social media platforms including YouTube (via the MotoGP and MotoGP eSport channels), MotoGP eSport Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook (via both the MotoGP and MotoGP eSport pages).

It doesn't stop there.

It includes the race archive stretching back to 1992 and up to the 2020 Qatar GP, giving fans chance to enjoy each and every moment in recent MotoGP history whenever they want.

The first two episodes of Off the Racing Line are also available, focusing on life off-track for Jack Miller (Pramac Racing) and Miguel Oliveira (Red Bull KTM Tech 3).


Key Features:

  • Managerial Career: MotoGP 20 was especially created for players who are not afraid of making decisions. This year, the Managerial Career is finally back with brand new features! Are you ready to experience the MotoGP™ championship all the way? You can count on a complete team of professionals, such as your Personal Manager, the Chief Engineer and the Data Analyst. Their role will be essential to find engagements, collect your racing data and develop the bike. Wanna find out how useful they can be? Visit our dedicated news section.
  • Extreme Realism: If you want to be the fastest, you’ll need the best bike, that's why MotoGP™20 allows you to develop and upgrade your bike in every single aspect. You’ll be able to adjust your bike in multiple ways: Aerodynamics, Electronics, Engine power and consumption, Chassis. We’ve known for a long time that challenges don’t scare you. So we needed something really tough to test your skills, that's why we introduced a more realistic braking management, Tire Wear and Fuel Consumption.
  • Graphic Editors: Our Graphic Editor is certainly one of the most acclaimed and appreciated features by all players. That’s why MotoGP™20 introduces new liveries in perfect MotoGP™ style, perfect to personalize the bike of your Custom Team. Use the Livery Editor to change the colors of the Fairing and of the rider's suit!
  • Dedicated Servers: We tasted the "Low Latency" and now we can no longer do without it! So we decided to continue to harness the power of the Dedicated Servers provided by Amazon Web Services, and to evolve our online game modes such as Public Match, Private Match and Race Director Mode, improving their quality even further.
  • Neural AI: We strongly believe in the potential of neural networks applied to the world of video games. The previous version of A.N.N.A. was smarter, faster and more efficient… and still it was not enough. So we decided to "go beyond": MotoGP™20 will feature a Neural AI 2.0, even more efficient in terms of driving and, above all, capable of managing tire wear and fuel consumption. The new Neural AI will take the challenge to the next level, to challenge you beyond your limits.
  • Renewed Historical Mode: The history of the MotoGP is certainly made of epic moments, but it’s the challenge that turned the great champions of the past into legends. This year, we designed a game mode with different race challenges randomly generated: race and win to unlock new riders and new motorcycles! Be careful not to miss the rarest bikers, collect them all and test the new physics on the most powerful bikes in the history of the Top Class.
  • 2020 Season: You will have all the drivers of all the classes of the Season 2020 and all the tracks, including the brand new Finnish circuit "Kymiring".

MotoGP 20 will be available for Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One, Google Stadia and PC on April 24, 2020.
