The first gameplay video of RIDE released

RIDE

Milestone s.r.l., Italy's leading videogame developer for consoles and PC, and the world's foremost motorcycle videogame developer, releases a gameplay video dedicated to the Sierra Nevada track in RIDE, its first exclusive IP - playable from 20 March 2015 - on the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, Xbox One, Windows PC, Steam, PlayStation®3 and PlayStation®4.

The Sierra Nevada is home to some of the most distinctive and beloved mountain passes in the United States. A series of roadways wind through the Sierra Nevada valleys, with fast stretches through woodland and the tight corners of the mountain sections presenting the greatest challenges. The Sonora Pass connects the communities of Sonora in the west with Bridgeport in the east. The extremely steep road - exceeding 8% along most of the route, with a maximum gradient of 26% - winds along narrow tortuous routes between Kennedy Meadows and Leavitt Meadows. Being able to ride the Sonora Pass on an Aprilia RSV4 R ABS - the street version of the bike that dominated the 2014 WSBK season, winning both the Riders' World Championship and the Manufacturers' World Championship - is simply breath-taking.

RIDE: Milestone's development studios in Italy are back at work, doing what they do best. The developers are tearing up the rulebook and bringing a raft of new ideas to the table. These are the developers who have become synonymous with the world of virtual racing. Created for the players and building on the experiences of the serried ranks of bike fans, the new IP offers players the chance to ride over 100 bikes, in 4 different categories - Superbikes, Supersports, Naked, and Historical Bikes - and take them hurtling at full speed over a huge variety of city, country and historic circuits from the world of motorcycling.

RIDE offers unprecedented levels of vehicle and rider customisation, presenting players with a vast array of options to keep gameplay fresh and exhilarating over the long term. The RIDE experience will accompany players and riders alike on the long road of the true motorcyclist. RIDE is currently in development at the Milestone studios in Italy.
