Milestone Preview 2009 Docu-scenarios in MotoGP 22

This sounds like quite an interesting addition to the series. While you obviously cannot change the course of the championship if it is supposed to be grounded in reality, it is a cool way of setting goals for a set of scenarios. More of this please, developers! Full grids, full schedules – lovely!

Mark Neale: “NINE took shape much like the 2009 MotoGP season itself. At first, nobody was sure how it would go, then it turned into something amazing. Making it was a great experience. I think playing it will be, too.”

Stakes are high and players will face all 17 Grand Prix of the Season divided into chapters and breath-taking challenges to complete. All the NINE Season 2009 content is also available in Grand Prix and Championship modes, allowing players to play entire races and seasons as the iconic riders of the 2009 season.

•All the riders, the bikes and the tracks of season 2009
•More than 1 hour of real footage, full of stories, anecdotes and interviews with the protagonists of the races.
•39 challenges that accurately reproduce the most crucial moments of the season. Each challenge is characterized by specific goals to achieve, such as defending the position against attacks from a rival, reaching a particular position before the end of the race, or engaging in a head-to-head duel with a very aggressive rider.

•Additional content unlockable with each challenge, such as helmets and special liveries used by the protagonists in home races.

Events, challenges, stories and emotions that were unrepeatable are now ready to be lived, once again!
