The new trailer emphasizes the role of customization in the game. The user interface provides players with the ability to adjust various settings, enabling them to configure their bike according to their unique riding style. Suspension customization is highlighted as a strategic choice, with RIDE5 accurately replicating the effects of the players’ adjustments.

In addition to customizing their motorcycles, players can also personalize the aesthetics of their bike and rider. They have the opportunity to share their unique creations online.

The dynamic weather system and changing light conditions are other noteworthy features. These real-time changes directly affect race outcomes, and the game also calculates the track temperature based on weather conditions, adding a strategic layer to the racing experience.

RIDE5 is equipped with an advanced neural AI system to manage the player’s opponents. It also aids players by adjusting the difficulty level according to their skills. This feature allows for a smoother learning process, enabling players to improve their responsiveness at their own pace.

Various game modes accommodate different player preferences, with challenges ranging from quick races to more enduring competitions. A new addition to RIDE5 is the race creator mode, enabling players to create their personal races and championships.

The game also introduces rivals, AI-controlled riders with distinct personalities and appearances. These rivals appear frequently throughout the player’s career, adding to the challenge. The game rewards players for overcoming these rivals with significant rewards, including over 200 secondary events and the ability to build their dream headquarters.

Finally, the game presents its endurance races, the most demanding game mode in RIDE5, now featuring in-race save and rewind options. It also offers split-screen duels for local multiplayer, along with online competitions against players worldwide.

RIDE5 will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store starting August 24, 2023.
