MotoGP 26 Reveals Gameplay Footage Ahead of April Launch
Milestone and MotoGP Sports Entertainment Group have shared a first look at MotoGP™26 gameplay in a newly released video, which premiered today. The game launches on April 29, 2026, and will be available on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch™2, Nintendo Switch™, and PC.
The footage highlights a range of circuits, including the Circuit of the Americas and the Portimão Circuit under clear skies, alongside a rain-soaked Silverstone. Each track showcases the series’ strong attention to detail and focus on realism, helping to create a more immersive experience while giving players a closer look at MotoGP™26’s updated physics model.
This new physics system is built around rider-based handling, bringing noticeable changes to how the game feels on track, and updated rider animations further reinforce these improvements. The video also introduces a new UK-based location for the Race Off mode, featuring two fresh tracks where players can train across Motard, Flat Track, and Minibikes disciplines.
Expanding beyond official competition, MotoGP™26 also introduces 1000cc production bikes. These will feature in dedicated mono-brand events, where riders from the same manufacturer compete across MotoGP, Moto2, and Moto3 classes on official championship circuits.
Having only recently jumped into the MotoGP series, I had a great time with it, largely thanks to how flexible the experience can be. Whether you want a full simulation or something more arcade-style, it adapts to suit your preference. I am also looking forward to seeing how the MotoGP series evolves on Nintendo Switch 2, especially with the potential for upgraded graphics.
