Ride 4 dropped this weekend and it is still the beloved two-franchise it has always been. Available in both X Box and PS4. Don’t fret if you already order your next-gen console. you can upgrade for free. So come this holiday you can freewheel in super high resolution. This also applies to any DLC’s you download. Note: this is only till 30th April 2021.
Even in the outgoing console format, Ride 4 still delivers cutting edge visual fidelity and brings to life the most iconic replicas of two-wheeled machinery. All models in the game have been carefully created from the ground up using cutting edge technology. They even went as far as obtaining the CAD and 3D scans of the real models. Every single little detail carefully reproduced. The cockpit is as close to the real thing as possible. Even the date output on the dash changes in real-time. Temperature, speed, even the oil bottle is in live mode. This game is a love letter to bike enthusiasts.
Career Mode
The career mode has been given a shot of NOS, bringing the high revving fast pace challenges to new heights. Compete with demon-like sportbikes in championships or push yourself to the limit in Endurance mode. Milestone allows the realism to set in and with dynamic lighting and weather the test is real. Of course, there is also the fun side of designing your own bike and apparel. Then the mechanical upgrade to give it even more juice. and last but certainly not least the helmets. It is the crown of any racer, more so with bikers. this time the customization level goes deeper than before.
Being a king in Ride 4 isn’t easy. The journey is long and hard, with the competition getting tougher each time. This is all thanks to the propriety technology ANNA,. That’s short for Artificial Neural Network Agent, a revolutionary Artificial Intelligence based on neural networks that enable an incredible level of challenge for players – with smarter and faster opponents.
Oh, and they have dedicated servers for multiplayer mode. This makes it as smooth as slicks on rubbered on the surface.
Giddy up partner
What is motorsport without branding? Enter Yamaha Motor, the main partner for Milestone. It is an iconic motorcycle brand with the pedigree and heritage that holds records in the genre.
Paolo Pavesio, Marketing and Motorsport Director, Yamaha Motor Europe commented: “racing and adrenaline have been part of the Yamaha DNA since our foundation 65 years ago. This is why it has been almost natural to partner with Milestone, one of the biggest names in the global motorcycling gaming industry. We strive to give excitement and emotion to our customers and to all motorcycle lovers, always staying close to what ‘revs’ them inside. With Milestone and RIDE4 we also innovate our approach, reaching out to new fans that have a shared passion for motorcycles, be that in the virtual or the physical world. The love is gone and we welcome these riders to our family. Being among the pioneers in the rising esports world we bring our involvement in gaming to the next level with RIDE 4 and the variety of unique activities planned on and off-line for the following year.”
