    MotoGP 18 brings the core experience of the Milestone racer to Nintendo Switch, with the same gameplay and contents (except for online multiplayer) but also blurry graphics in handheld mode.

    MotoGP 18 is your one and only option if you want to experience the thrills of MotoGP racing on your Nintendo Switch. As long as you fully understand and accept the visual and technical concessions being made for the freedom of portable play, this is overall a very competent package; it's just a shame that there's no online or split-screen multiplayer, which seems like a major oversight to us; local play between Switch system is possible, but could prove to be a logical nightmare.

    MotoGP 18 has improved its gameplay thanks to the change of graphic engine, but still the feeling that remains after playing it’s that it’s unused, and could have given much more of itself. It’s a little ambitious and has a somewhat limited gameplay, with cuts in game modes and absence of online, something unforgivable at this point. Therefore, it’s basically a game for the biggest fans of motorcycling.

    Although rich in content and resting on solid foundations, the Switch version of MotoGP 18 disappoints expectations with a poor technical conversion and without the now-essential online mode.

    The Nintendo Switch version is by far the worst MotoGP 18 version available. The graphics are bad and the lack of online will hurt gamers who love the competition.

IMO, the best racing game on the Switch at this point. Although the choices are very limited. This game is hampered by no analog throttle, but does well with what it has. The controls are very responsive and accurate, unlike most driving games for the Switch. If you like racing games, especially motorcycle racing games, then this is a must have IMO.… Expand

    Sufficient content, game plays OK although i can hold the throttle on full even when on grass and leaning while on pro mode which i wouldn'tSufficient content, game plays OK although i can hold the throttle on full even when on grass and leaning while on pro mode which i wouldn't expect. One thing that does bug me though is the graphics in handheld mode, they are very blurry. I'm not particularly fussed about graphics but does make the game hard to recommend due to this, i feel it looks worse than the PS vita version did. (docked mode is fine) It is the only sim on Switch at the moment so if you are a Sim fan or a motoGP fan i think you will get enough enjoyment from it (just) but if you are neither of them i would stay well away. At least until a graphics patch has been sorted for handheld… Expand

    Shoddy handling, poor sense of speed and the feeling of being on a motorcycle(speaking as somebody who rides motorcycles) the turns feelShoddy handling, poor sense of speed and the feeling of being on a motorcycle(speaking as somebody who rides motorcycles) the turns feel stilted and unrealistic, the graphics as another reviewer mentioned are below what you would expect on a machine of this power, the menus are plain and are not inviting to the player, rather they look generic and without any character, the racing is blurry and lacking in fine detail with major image rendering happening as you progress on the track. To summarise the whole game is lacking any character or sense of fun, perhaps die hard racing enthusiasts might find this OK but for anybody else I would stay away from this title.… Expand
