MotoGP 23 Career Mode
Milan, Italy, May 18, in the year of our Lord 2023
-- Milestone and Dorna Sports S.L. reveal the new design of
the MotoGP™23 career mode, which has always been one of the most
important features of the MotoGP™ videogame franchise. This year, it
comes with a renewed and even more realistic, dynamic and social
formula. A feature that everyone will be able to fully enjoy, thanks
to the new neural aids, a system where realism and approachability
meets in perfect balance. There are many aspects to cover, so let's
go in order.
THE NEURAL AID SYSTEM
The much-anticipated MotoGP™23 feature, the Neural Aid System, will
help beginners to learn the ins and outs of riding thanks to an
advanced AI support system, based on neural network technology. This
innovative feature will assist riders with braking, acceleration and
handling, for a seamless and more immersive riding experience. The
system is carefully calibrated to ensure enjoyment for all, while
the players who want to master the game will find in the MotoGP™
Academy the best tools to improve their riding style and
performance. Detailed descriptions will guide the players along the
track, teaching them how to ride each section faster and more
effectively.
AN APPROACHABLE CAREER
In MotoGP™23, the Career mode starts at the end of a Moto3™
championship. Easier to master compared to the bikes of the MotoGP™,
these bikes will allow players to get familiar with the mechanics of
this new edition. Depending on the results, players will be able to
stay for another season in the same category or move up to Moto2™,
or even forge ahead to race directly in MotoGP™. This will satisfy
both who wants to experience all the different physics of the bikes
and compete against the riders in all three categories, and the
players who might prefer to skip directly to the higher class.
Before every season players will be able to choose if they want to
race a short 10-round calendar or the official one, which includes
all the 21* rounds of the world championship.
TURNING POINTS
MotoGP™23 introduces Turning Points, which are key decision-making
moments in the game that will affect players' career. During each
season, players will encounter a variety of scenarios, each with
different objective to achieve. Depending on the results obtained on
track, each career path will take a different turn; for instance,
from the initial tests to the Summer Break, based on their
performance, players will be able to decide whether to renew with
the same team, stay in their class, or move up. Objectives will not
only consist of winning races but will also influence motorcycle
development, allowing players to enjoy the game's nuances. This new
career design will thus offer long-term challenges that can only be
experienced by playing multiple seasons and exploring all the game's
content.
THE SOCIAL NETWORK, RESPONSIBLY
MotoGP™23 has an innovative career mode that shifts the focus from
team manager to rider. The career mode adapts to the players'
performance and features a fictional social network that emphasizes
the digital personality of their alter ego. The narrative of the
game includes comments from opposing riders that are linked to
career objectives. The players’ social behaviour will influence the
response of the artificial intelligence during the race.
For example, if players are too aggressive on the track, opponents
may ask them to behave more appropriately. Players have now the
option to comply or to respond aggressively, with the risk to create
heated rivalries. This will result in different levels of
competitiveness, which will affect the gameplay. In the long term,
having a negative relationship with other riders will make it
difficult to form alliances. In the end, the game focuses on the
consequences of social interactions in the racing world.
TEAM DYNAMICS
In MotoGP™23, having a good reputation is crucial as it affects not
only the way other riders react but also the objectives assigned to
the players by their team. And beware: failing to achieve them might
get you fired at the end of the season! Additionally, the game now
offers a more realistic approach when joining a team, with only two
spots available, so players will have to compete with the official
riders and prove their value. For instance, to become enter the
Ducati team, players must first demonstrate their ability with
satellite teams like Team Gresini MotoGP, Pramac Racing, or VR46
Racing. Another example of emerging dynamics concerns the newly
entered teams such as GasGas Factory Racing, whose overall goal will
be to finish in the top 15 at the end of the championship. In case
players perform even better and manage to be in the top 10 before
the summer break, a turning point is proposed and they will have the
opportunity to earn the same bike development upgrades as the KTM
official team.
INTELLIGENT DEVELOPMENT
In MotoGP™23, the first rider of each team is responsible for the
motorcycle’s development. To make their voices heard, players will
have to demonstrate that the role of second rider is just not enough
for them. The Turning Points will allow players to climb the ladder
and direct the team's technical development during tests. This
applies also to AI-managed teams, whose motorcycles start with basic
parameters and progress as technical development advances, which
could result in unpredictable consequences for each season's
rankings. Once in the first rider role, players must analyse not
only their own performance but also their most competitive rivals'
and understand how to lead the technical development. Reading the
MotoGP™23’s Social Network and the comments of the other riders,
players must understand who to keep an eye on. Opponents will change
their performances every time, based on the vehicle they are racing
on and how they ended the previous season. This will affect the
hierarchies within their teams, resulting in each season being
different from the previous one.
*Career mode includes Kazakhstan Grand Prix and Indian Grand Prix.
